The 2025 Ford F-150 Shelby American is here, and it’s turning heads among truck fans. Shelby American, the tuners behind high-performance rides, took the tough Ford F-150 and cranked it up with racing vibes. Launched last month in September 2025, this pickup mixes everyday hauling power with serious speed. If you’re into trucks that look mean and drive like a beast, this one’s for you.
First Look
Right off the bat, the Shelby F-150 grabs your attention. It sits on a 3-inch lift with huge 35-inch all-terrain tires that make it look ready to tackle any trail. The front has that classic Shelby grille and sharp LED lights, plus blue stripes running over the hood for that speedster feel. Matte black bits and badges give it an edgy touch. Step inside, and it’s comfy with leather seats stamped with Shelby logos and a dash that mixes carbon fiber for a fancy vibe. Built on the Lariat 4×4 SuperCrew setup, it has four doors and a handy 5.5-foot bed. Colors like Velocity Blue stand out, and you can tweak it for more luxury or off-road gear.
High-Tech Features
This truck packs smart tech without making things complicated. The big 12-inch touchscreen runs Ford’s SYNC 5 with 5G, so you get easy maps, music streaming, and updates on the go. Safety stuff from Ford Co-Pilot360 includes adaptive cruise, blind-spot alerts, and lane help—great for highways or dodging city traffic. For off-roading, a 360-degree camera spots rocks, and running boards pop out to help you climb in. Voice commands handle the AC or directions, keeping your hands on the wheel. It’s all user-friendly, like having a co-pilot who knows trucks.
Power and Mileage
Under the hood, a supercharged 5.0L V8 pumps out up to 785 horsepower, letting it tow heavy loads up to 13,500 pounds or hit 60 mph fast. FOX shocks and all-wheel drive smooth out bumps on roads or dirt. But that power means mileage isn’t the best—expect about 17 mpg in the city and 22 on the highway for the supercharged model. The standard V8 does a bit better at 17/23, but if you’re chasing speed, you’ll hit the gas station more. It’s a fair swap for the rush.
Price
Starting at around $100,000 for basics, it climbs to $130,000-$140,000 for the full supercharged setup. That’s for the limited-edition feel, with a three-year/36,000-mile warranty. Head to Ford dealers now—they’re stocking them. It’s not cheap, but for a truck this exclusive, it feels like a smart buy for collectors or speed lovers.
