Given how popular the Ford F-150 Raptor is in the United States, it would be stealing from yourself not to offer tuning packages for it. Hennessey Performance has recently released just such a package – and is now trying it out in various extreme environments.
As you would expect from the 565-PS (558-hp / 417-kW) truck, the F-150 feels totally at home on the Californian sand, riding with confidence on its rugged 35-inch tires wrapped around 20-inch rims.
In addition to the mandatory power increase, the pickup benefits from a host of other upgrades from Hennessey, such as new bumpers, a light bar at the front end, automatic running boards, a front suspension leveling kit, and a 3-inch (76mm) lift. All of the above is already available for ordering at the official Hennessey website.
A while ago, the Texan tuner tested the same truck in the high mountains of Colorado, where it was subjected to temperatures lower than –12 °C (10 °F).
