Say hello to a rather large slice of Murica. It"s a Ford F-150 Raptor - a TG favourite - that"s been modified by Roush, a US tuner that specialises in upgrading F-150s and Mustangs. Usually this modifying revolves around power, and sure enough Roush says it plans to offer a Performance Pac" engine upgrade that should take the Raptor"s 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 to 522bhp and 565lb ft of torque. But as it"s not available quite yet, early adopters will have to make do with the standard 450bhp and 510lb ft (albeit augmented with a trick exhaust). Still adequate. There have been no changes to the suspension. The Raptor is already so capable off-road, we bet Roush simply decided to leave the springs and dampers be.
