Mil-Spec Automotive Introduces High-Performance F-150
Known for designing custom handmade H1 trucks for enthusiasts, Mil-Spec Automotive has introduced a new Ford F-150 series of high-performance trucks. The new F-150 from Mil-Spec Automotive features a 500-horsepower 5.0L V8 performance package specially engineered to tackle anything.
“At Mil-Spec Automotive, our company designs always center around a deep passion for upgrading some of the world’s most celebrated trucks,” said Mil-Spec Automotive Co-Founder Adam Mitchell. “Our new Mil-Spec Automotive F-150 is very much an extension of our popular bespoke H1 series. As truck enthusiasts, we are always on the hunt for platforms that we can dramatically improve from a performance perspective while also offering Mil-Spec Automotive’s unique aesthetic. The new Mil-Spec Automotive F-150 is very much a go anywhere, do anything supertruck.”
Ready to take drivers anywhere out on the open road or dirt, the Mil-Spec Automotive F-150 utilizes a 500-horsepower naturally aspirated 5.0L V8 package to power each F-150. Each engine is also customized with a performance tune specifically designed for 91 octane. In an effort to further improve the driving experience, Mil-Spec implemented a high-performance electric power-assisted steering wheel with custom magnesium paddle shifters and centerline stitching.
The optional Baja Performance Suspension Package incorporates a variety of Fox Racing components to improve the MSA F-150’s off-road performance. Designed as a tactically-inspired alternative to the wildly popular Raptor, the Mil-Spec Automotive F-150 features a modified long-travel Baja Suspension, which allows up to 11-inches of wheel travel and up to 13.5-inches of increased track width over a standard stock F-150. This innovative MSA design produces a truck that is seven inches wider than the Raptor and as tall as an F-250 heavy-duty truck with an off-road tuned suspension as aggressive as the Raptor.
The new Fox 3.0 F-150 Long Travel Performance Shock Package is another Mil-Spec Automotive addition, which includes an optional fully adjustable coilover and shock kit with 3’’ diameter bypass shocks, remote reservoirs, 10AN hoses and Eibach springs for both the front and rear suspension. All hardware included in this package is powder coated black with anodized aluminum accents to complete the sleek exterior.
Powder coated heavy duty side steps allow for easy access into the new Mil-Spec Automotive F-150 cab, while high-intensity LED headlights help to greatly improve visibility on the road. Other upgrades include 20-inch Mil-Spec Automotive-inspired alloy wheels that wear 37×13.59R20LT Nitto Ridge Grappler tires and dual exhaust tips with black finish.
Additional upgrades for the new Mil-Spec F-150 include the Baja Exterior Appearance Package. The new exterior options include a low-profile Baja Roof Rack, a spare tire carrier made for equipping an oversized off-road wheel, and a large 39’’ LED light bar system.
The front and rear bumper systems are engineered from fully welded heavy-duty steel that offers extra strength with a satin black powder coat finish and LED lighting compatibility.
Each new Mil-Spec Automotive F-150 is available in four exterior colors: Agate Black, Magnetic Grey, Lead Foot Grey, and Oxford White. Mil-Spec Automotive badging is featured throughout the exterior and interior of the vehicle, with each logo available in either a machine, semi-gloss black, or powder coat black finish.
The Mil-Spec Automotive F-150 also features interior styling that includes leather seats for customers amongst other appointments throughout. Billet aluminum control knobs and a billet number plaque are included on the center console for each truck.
