A striking satin-black Ford F-150 Raptor R with gloss black wheels looks like the ultimate pickup truck for the future.
This Raptor R is the work of Miami, Florida-based tuners Vossen, who have worked their magic on the Ford truck.
Not only does it look menacing in its satin-black, but the glossy wheels and a few more extras help it to stand out.
As you would expect, however, the additions to the Ford truck are certainly not cheap!

Vossen has made the Raptor R even more aggressive
The Ford F-150 Raptor is the off-roading performance version of the pickup truck, and it’s already menacing.
However, Vossen’s additions to the pickup have taken that to a whole new level.
Most notable is the wild satin paint scheme, with the black Ford looking extra aggressive.
If that wasn’t enough, the truck also has Vossen’s own LCX-03 wheels in a nicely contrasting gloss black.
The wheels are forged alloy and have a concave fitment for that extra bit of style and flair.
Should you want a flat wheel profile, however, Vossen also offers those for your trucks.
There is plenty of customization available, as Vossen offers up to 48 finishes from wheels of 20-24 inches in size.
The F-150 is no longer the best-selling vehicle in America
Out of all versions of the Raptor, the F-150 Raptor R with its 720HP V8 is the most desirable of the bunch.
This is the same 5.2-liter supercharged V8 taken from the S550 Shelby Mustang GT500.
Speaking of the F-150, it could be an interesting time for the Ford pickup truck.
Ford has yet to release its first-quarter sales figures.
These will come not long after the F-150 was knocked off the top spot as America’s best-selling vehicle.
In 2024, the Toyota RAV4 displaced the Ford which did come a close second in the final results.
Toyota has seen a sales increase of around 0.9 percent in its first-quarter sales.
Seeing where the Blue Oval stacks up could be fascinating.
The figures could provide a hint as to whether the F-150 will reclaim the top spot in overall sales.
Or if Toyota will once again win the sales battle.
