Now that we know what the Roush F-150 is all about, we can’t help but feel that this Blue Flame Metallic model is arguably one of the best-looking super-fast trucks we’ve seen lately.
Let’s start with its appearance, since that’s what draws you in the first time you look at these images. First off, you really can’t miss the Roush front grille and bumper cover, nor can you ignore those huge fender flares. Also, the 20″ Mickey Thompson Performance wheels come with a no-nonsense design and fit in with the F-150’s rugged appearance rather well.
In terms of performance, this truck here comes with Roush’s Phase 1 Supercharger kit, which means that it’s packing 600 HP and 550 lb-ft (745 Nm) of torque. Roush will also launch the Phase 2 Supercharger package in the near future, which will bump the power up to 650 horses and 600 lb-ft (813 Nm) of torque.
That’s not a massive gain, but you’ll take all the power you can get with this type of vehicle – which isn’t exactly on a lightweight diet, so to speak.
Now, there are two other trucks you should consider if you’re so into the F-150 and you love what Roush has done with it. First, you really need to feast your eyes on the 700 HP 2016 Shelby F-150 which made its way to SEMA this year. Last but not least is the Hennessey VelociRaptor 600, which is about as powerful as the Roush F-150 with the Phase 1 Supercharger, but comes with a really cool moniker.
Really hard to decide between the three, isn’t it?
