Ford F-150 TKO by MRT

MRT took a different approach to building a fast F-150, utilizing the proven 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine and pairing it with a Tremec Magnum 6-Speed manual transmission. This F-150 features many go-fast bits from the large capacity intercooler and refined boost mapping for the turbos to safety features like a roll cage and race seats with 5-point harnesses. To round out their unique approach to the F-150 an attractive two-tone paint set up was used with a yellow pinstripe to help make this truck really pop even when standing still.

The annual SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) Show in Las Vegas is typically a platform for automotive manufacturers to show off customized versions of their popular vehicles. For Ford, no vehicle has been more popular than its F-Series line of pickups—at least according to the numbers. The F-Series has been America’s best-selling truck for 38 years and its best-selling vehicle for 33 years.

To showcase the popular pick up, Ford will bring seven custom versions of its 2016 F0rd F-150 to next month’s SEMA Show. Scroll through the slideshow above for a preview of how folks like Roush Performance, Galpin Autosports, and others put their stamp on the truck.
