If you’re looking to power up and down some sand dunes, there’s no better way to go about it.
How powerful is the 2023 Ford F-150 Raptor R?
Very! The F-150 Raptor R is the only truck in the Ford lineup to feature a supercharged V8 (borrowed from the Mustang Shelby GT500) that punches out 700 horsepower.
