Based in Houston, the guys and gals at PaxPower are much obliged to convert the Ford Ranger into a full-blown Raptor lookalike. The aftermarket specialist can also spruce up the F-150 for the 2021 model year with tons of tasteful mods, including a race-proven supercharger.
Alpha is the name of the imposing truck in the following video, and thanks to 770 horsepower, it’s safe to assume that it’s worthy of the nameplate. For reference, the Ram 1500 TRX develops 702 horsepower from a 6.2-liter HEMI augmented by a twin-screw IHI blower with a 2.4-liter displacement.
Beautified with a heat-extraction hood, contrasting fender flares, and Raptor-like hardware, the 2021 Ford F-150 PaxPower Alpha boasts Fox shock absorbers, upgraded leaf springs, upper and lower control arms, sway bar end links, bump stops, extended front axles, and steering links. A 3.5-inch suspension lift is also worthy of note, along with Toyo Open Country R/T rubber shoes wrapped around beadlock-capable Method forged wheels.
The Houston-based company further modified the half-ton pickup with a rear cab spoiler that gives the F-150 a more dynamic look from the side profile. A cool graphics package for the sides of the bed, tailgate, and windshield rounds off the list of goodies, and these mods don’t come cheap.
PaxPower is asking $18,950 for the suspension and exterior makeover while the supercharger is $12,450. The 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 can be upgraded to 500 horsepower and 625 pound-feet (847 Nm) of torque for $2,950 including labor, and the 3.0-liter Power Stroke V6 turbo diesel with 400 horsepower on tap also costs $2,950. Looking at the bigger picture, that’s a small price to pay in comparison to what Shelby American and Hennessey Performance Engineering are charging for their high-performance pickup trucks.
If the F-150 isn’t your kind of truck, the Chevrolet Silverado 1500-based PaxPower Jackal may be up your alley with 650 horsepower at the crank.
