Roush Performance F-150 Released
ROUSH Performance has introduced the newest addition to its pickup truck lineup with the trail-inspired 2019 F-150.
Building on the base of the venerable F-150 platform, the vehicle has been engineered to conquer the trails while remaining poised on the street, and it includes many performance and aesthetic upgrades inside and out, according to ROUSH. The new F-150 allows buyers to choose a multitude of trim and engine options to build upon. Starting with either an XLT or Lariat F-150 Supercrew 4WD, the ROUSH F-150 can be equipped with any engine available from Ford.
The ROUSH F-150 comes standard with ROUSH’s dual tip cat-back Performance Exhaust System. In addition, a premium Active Exhaust system is also available as an option. Utilizing electronic valve technology, the system enables drivers to switch between loud, quiet, and custom modes via a mobile app or console mounted switch. The ROUSH Active Exhaust mobile application enables users to have full control over their truck’s sound based on rpm, vehicle speed, and accelerator position, according to the company.
The ROUSH F-150 gains some extra suspension travel and a 2-inch front lift thanks to the upgraded Fox 2.0 suspension. This suspension kit provides an enhanced look to the truck while improving off-road durability and capability as well as on-road manners. The F-150 rides on 20-inch ROUSH wheels wrapped in General Grabber ATX LT305/55R20 all-terrain.
Numerous aesthetic upgrades are also included on the ROUSH F-150 to give it an aggressive look. ROUSH combines its signature front grille with accent lighting, fender flares with accent lighting, a front bumper cover and a square “R” hitch cover to give the 2019 F-150 head-turning style. An optional ROUSH Soft Tonneau Cover by Extang is also available as well as several customizable ROUSH graphics packages.
Interior modifications include molded floor liners by WeatherTech and a serialized ROUSH console badge. An optional black and carbon leather upgrade, optional console vault, and off-road utility kit are also available options.
The ROUSH F-150 pricing begins at $13,450 over factory MSRP and is now available at all ROUSH authorized Ford dealers, according to the company.
