Some notable design details include red and green position lights in front, a few changes to the driver cockpit, a combination of glossy and matte exterior accents, and left and right mirror skull caps. Bold F-22 branding also makes this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sherwoodford.ca\/blog\/2017-ford-f-150-raptor-colour-options\/\">black and grey<\/a> truck stand out.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3>Engine Modifications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the coolest enhancements to the U.S. Airforce Ford Raptor is its key engine modifications. While the standard <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sherwoodford.ca\/blog\/is-the-2017-ford-raptor-worth-the-money\/\">3.5-liter twin-turbo V-6 on the Ford Raptor <\/a>cranks out 450 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque, the whipple-intercooled version on this model offers a stunning 545 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque. Upgraded brakes, large custom wheels and off-road lighting are other features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Who bought the U.S. Air Force F-22 F-150 Raptor?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Who ended up with the winning bid for the U.S. Air Force Ford F-22 F-150 Raptor? That would be Gary Ackerman in Las Vegas, Nevada in the U.S. With strong ties to both the Air Force and Ford, we&#8217;re sure he will enjoy the vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;re definitely not going to get this one-of-a-kind model on the lot here at Sherwood Ford, but if you are interested in any of our powerful and practical Ford F-150 trucks, you can <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sherwoodford.ca\/new-ford-f-150-sherwood-park-ab\">check out our inventory<\/a> or contact a member of our sales team today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>U.S. Air Force High Performance F-22 F-150 Raptor Usually, a F-22 fighter jet would be something we would admire, but not something that we&#8217;d blog about.
