"Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads." —Doc Brown, Back to the Future (1985). The same also holds true for the Steeda F150 Raptor Edition. It don't need no stinking roads. What it does need is a pilot with an all-you-can-eat appetite for off-roading.
As Steeda Performance Vehicles President Bob Adams puts it, "Whatever the challenge, the Steeda Raptor Edition takes performance, style, and handling to an all-new level of unmatched capability. With an amazing 90 horsepower and 130 lb-ft of torque more than a stock Raptor, combined with instantaneous throttle response, on or off-road, this is the ultimate Raptor."
Fortune Favors the Bold
That's a very bold statement. But when you've achieved what Steeda has both here and with the Ford Mustang, boldness comes with the territory. The Steeda Raptor Edition is the culmination of hard work that started decades ago. See, Steeda's engineers played with toy trucks in the sandbox when they were kids. They still do; just with sandboxes and trucks that are a lot larger now. We're talking large, lifted, fender-flared, fire-breathers in places like Moab or Sedona. The engineers use math and physics to tackle the age-old question, "Wouldn't it be cool if?" At least, as that question applies to cranking out more horsepower, conquering deeper streams and steeper hills. Think of them as a high school math club with an adrenaline kick.
You see, they figured out the secret a long time ago. Real monster trucks don’t crush wrecked cars in an arena; real monster trucks are driven – hard – through the dunes, the canyons the bogs, the wilderness; wherever the paved road ends and the adventures begin.
Whether your idea of a relaxing day off is pulling out stump (or charging over them), there’s a Steeda F-150 Raptor with your name on it. And it’s built to the highest quality standards. That’s why they stand behind it with a three year/36,000 mile limited warranty.
The Speed Trifecta
Steeda tells us their guiding principal is simple: Speed Matters. Which is good, because maximum performance is their business. They achieve it with their own blend of increased power, traction, and refinement. In the case of the Steeda Raptor, they poured their all into making it blow other trucks away. It all starts with a base Ford Raptor and gets faster from there.
