More Than A State Of Mind

Two vehicles pull up to the light. The dude in the big dollar imported sports car, obviously a product of the dotcom generation, revs up his engine, issuing a challenge to the vehicle in the next lane to a race. The person in the other vehicle, confident and poised, rolls down his window, looks sternly down at his challenger and utters the following fateful words; “This is the Ford F-350 Striker, a truck that packs so much power, it’ll blow your doors clean off! With that, the light changes and the dude in the sports car abruptly turns the corner and skulks off into the night. A wise decision, merely his pride wounded rather than the humiliation of being soundly defeated in a showdown he had little chance to winning.

It takes nerves of tempered steel to throw a gauntlet like that down, the kind of confident, controlled power that the Ford F-350 Striker packs. The Striker is based on the new Ford F-350, equipped with nothing less than an earth shaking 6.2 liter Powerstroke Turbo Diesel, matched with Mustang GT inspired styling. The F-350 Striker is no mere toy for entry level wanna bees. Quite the contrary, this is one sophisticated machine, with the capability of incredible speed matched with nearly unlimited towing and hauling capability. It takes self assured confidence to strap yourself into a road rocket this big, ignite the fuse and respond to the challenge of the wild bunch that calls the mean streets home. Pull up next to this Mustang GT inspired super truck and issue the challenge, but only if you think you’ve got the right stuff. Because it’s going to take a whole lot more than just luck to keep from getting your doors blown off by the Ford F-350 Striker.

All manner of sports cars, both foreign and domestic, cruise the streets and the freeways looking for action and bragging rights. But they’ve never faced up against a vehicle as outrageous as the Striker. Image how they’re going to feel once they’ve had their doors blown off, not by one of their peers, but a truck as big as a Ford F-350. Life is over for these snobs as they know it, ‘cause the Striker is going to put them in their place.

More Than A State Of Mind

Born and bred for the street and, even at home on the track, Ford’s Powerstroke Turbo Diesel engine has been the engine of choice for diesel truck enthusiasts since it was introduced. This state of the art power plant finds the perfect host in the super slick Striker. With incredible horsepower and torque lurking just under the hood, the F-350 Striker is nothing less than a road rocket strapped to the ground by aerodynamic enhancements and racing inspired rubber.

To keep the F-350 Striker asphalt-bound, the suspension system has been significantly modified using DJM Suspension components, lowering the center of gravity of the vehicle into a primordial crouch, while enabling it to leap through tight, twisting turns in pursuit of prey. Rolling stock consists of twenty four inch forged alloy wheels by American Force, matched with 24 inch ultra high performance Pirelli tires, while fade free, limitless stopping power is the domain of SSBC enhanced disc brakes. Add it all up and you’ve got the Ford F-350 Striker, a road warrior that matches legendary Powerstroke power with the over the road capability of a Silver State competitor.
