Ford enters a niche it has ignored: the street truck. The 2025 Ford F‑150 Lobo arrives as a factory‑equipped muscle truck. It combines performance, style, and turn‑key readiness. Built off the STX SuperCrew, this factory-backed street truck lowers the stance, tightens the visuals, and keeps the 5.0L V8 under warranty. It’s a full-size pickup designed for the pavement, not the trail.
What Defines the F‑150 Lobo Street Truck?
Ford took the F‑150 STX SuperCrew and added a bold package. The result is a full‑size crew‑cab truck with tailored flair.
- 5.0 L Coyote V8 – 400 hp, 410 lb‑ft torque.
- Two‑inch rear drop – brings a more aggressive stance via lowered suspension.
- 10‑piece ground‑appearance kit – accentuates visual drop with gloss‑black grille and hood vent.
- 22‑inch gloss‑black wheels – standard on all Lobo full‑size trucks.
- Dual exhaust and black trim – styled for a menacing street look.
Design That Commands Attention
Design lead Josh Blundo applied cultural insights to aesthetic and functional cues.
- Front fascia includes a unique upper grille, LED light bar, and wide mesh lower grille.
- Cowl hood sourced from Tremor adds muscle cues.
- Blacked‑out accents span badges, hood vents, exhaust, and trim.
- Five color options: Agate Black, Atlas Blue, Carbon Gray, Oxford White, Rapid Red.
- Clean tailgate — removes badges, echoing popular aftermarket trends.
