If The Hummy Was A Bit Too Rough Around The Edges For You,

how about this offering from Hennessey,


the Texas-based Hennessey Performance Engineering takes Ford's New F-150 Truck to the max with the 2015 VelociRaptor 600 Superchargedfrom 2010 through 2014, the firm built & sold Hennessey SVT Raptor 6.2L trucks ramped to 411hp, Ford ceased production of the Raptor at the end of the 2014 model year, prompting Hennessey to look to the new F-150 for its template, Ford's new-for-2015 aluminium-bodied F-150 may provide a larger platform for Hennessey's performance upgrades but one that's not near as heavy as expected, credit the use of aluminium over sheet steel for shaving nearly 700 pounds off Ford's standard bearer,



Hennessey takes full advantage of that gift by installing a Roots-type supercharger on the F-150's 5.0L V8, increasing the power output to over 600 hp, the 17-inch Hennessey wheels are shod with 33-inch BFGoodrich tires, Hennessey also offers buyers a range of non-performance options to better personalise their personal monster truck such as Brembo brakes, LED light bars, a custom off-road coilover suspension, a front winch, and upgraded front & rear bumpers, do I want one? yes please!
