Damn, over $50,000 and its still “almost” as boring as the regular new F150 body style. However, you have to give all the folks at Saleen credit because they didn’t have much to work with after Ford let Jerry’s kids in to design the exterior of the new F150…
Although the absence of the Ford Lightning has been driving certain Ford truck enthusiasts crazy (as well as old Ford Lightning prices skyward), Steve Saleen is looking to work a little performance magic for the power-hungry sport truck loyalists. By this summer, at select Ford dealerships, you will be able to order the Saleen Sport Truck S331. Among the highlights will be a retuned suspension, 23-inch wheels, 305/40-series street tires, various ground effects, interior accents, and supercharged and intercooled 5.4-liter 24-valve V-8 that puts out over 450 horsepower. The truck will only be offered in two-wheel drive SuperCab configuration but will offer a host of color combinations and options. Base model S331s (no supercharger) will hover around $40,000, with fully loaded models getting over the $50,000 mark with ease. Look for full performance test in an upcoming issue of Truck Trend.
