Megarexx Trucks returns with another over-the-top build based on the Ford Raptor, this time with a bench seat in the truck bed to make it a seven-seater truck. Like the previous Megaraptor, it's based on a Ford F-250 Super Duty Crew Cab Lariat 4x4 and powered by a 6.7-liter diesel engine making 475 horsepower and an absurd 1,050 lb-ft of torque. It's paired to a 10-speed automatic transmission.
As well as a third row of seating in the bed, the truck comes with a removable fiberglass hardtop so passengers can enjoy some diesel-tinged air. Opening a long list of features you won't find on a factory Ford truck, the Megaraptor 7 rides on 20-inch, 3-piece aluminum Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) wheels because, well, why not?
"The MegaRaptor 7 is a unique luxury SUV that will easily haul seven people plus all their gear in comfort and style no matter where they are going", said Aaron Richardet, owner of Megarexx.
Comfort and ability come from a serious suspension upgrade that includes 4.5-inch Icon progressive coil springs in the front, 5-inch multi-leaf springs out back, reservoir shocks, and stronger and longer radius arms. Bodywork includes Megarexx's trophy truck-inspired Smasher front bumper, the company's High & Tight rear bumper, Anzo switchback headlights and a 40-inch LED light bar.
To let people know you're coming over the hill, Megarexx also fits a powerful train horn because, again, why the heck not?
Black powder-coated side steps aid with ingress and egress into the cabin, which features Ebony Black micro-perforated leather under a twin-panel panoramic sunroof. Drivers benefit from a memory seat while the rear bench seat is sourced from the Ford Explorer and sits under a steel safety cage that fits neatly under the removable hard top.
The exterior, meanwhile, is painted in Lithium Gray Metallic. There's also a cool satin black, laser-etched, MegaRaptor-emblazoned tailgate panel with matching "MegaRexx Trucks" badge wrapping at the rear. It also comes with factory options including a 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system, dual-zone automatic climate control, SYNC 3 with an 8-inch touchscreen featuring wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a voice-activated navigation system with HD and satellite radio.
The drivetrain is upgraded to include 4.88:1 gears and a Pedal Commander Throttle Response Controller for adjustments.
If you're interested in the Megarexx Megaraptor 7, you'll need to contact the company for pricing and options and then ship the truck (yes, you still have to buy the donor vehicle on your own) to the company for a four to six-week turnaround.
