Boasting with over 545 hp, The Ford F-150 Raptor Pick-up is a very powerful off-roader.

Apart from the new carbon fibre wheel arches, roof-mounted light bar, distinctive silver, black and red wrap, custom wheels and impressive front grille, the main attraction is the engine power which was given a little tweak by adding a whip inter-cooler and a number of engine enhancements to the twin-turbo 3.5-litre EcoBoost V6 engine that boosted it to 545hp.

The EAA (Equivalent Annual Annuity) vice president of marketing and business development Dave Chaimson said: “Ford’s support of EAA and AirVenture has allowed thousands of young people to discover, enjoy, and pursue aviation. The unique F-22 version of the tremendously popular Ford F-150 Raptor truck will be an enormously popular highlight of the Gathering of Eagles auction, and we’re very grateful for Ford’s support for our initiatives.”

The Ford F-150 Raptor was designed by Melvin Betancourt, Ford’s design manager. The price of the pick-up truck will be known after it is introduced at the annual EAA Gathering of Eagles action on July 27, this year.
