In the world of 400hp grocery getters, the performance truck market has exploded.  Ever since Ford discontinued the SVT Lightning, Ford fans have been longing for a high performance full sized pickup truck, capable of pulling the family boat to the lake, or running a 13 second quarter mile.  Roush Performance has answered the call with its 2007 Stage 3 F150 pickup truck. 

The Stage 3 features the Roush F150 appearance package with a body kit and stripe package.  The suspension has also been modified, giving the Stage 3 a lower stance and better handling.  Roush wheels are fitted to complete the look.  However, to really appreciate the Stage 3 package, you must pop the hood.  Lifting the bonnet reveals the ROUSHcharged 5.4 liter V8 that produces 445 hp and 500 ft-lb of torque.  The engine produces enough power to take the full sized pickup into the high 13 second range in the quarter mile.  While the Stage 3 won't beat the Lightning, it will run very close on its heals, and has a rear seat.  

Inside, the Stage 3 features custom embroidered leather seats.  A special set of gauges keep tabs on the details of the engine.  If you are interested in getting your hands on a Stage 3 F150, visit your local Roush dealer.  Stay tuned to RPM Planets for more great sports trucks.
