6.7 Power Stroke V-8 Diesel Shelby F-250 Super Baja
Shelby American is upping the ante in the realm of super trucks, taking the F-250 Lariat a few notches in terms of off-roading capability.
Shelby Super Duty
Shelby American has a legendary history of enhancing Ford vehicles. And after introducing their latest lineup of potent Mustangs, topped by the Super Snake Speedster, they've turned their attention to another capable Ford platform. This time, it's the F-250 that's been given the Snake treatment.
Super Baja F-250
High-performance off-road trucks are all the rage these days. And while capitalizing on that momentum, Shelby American is also bringing something new to the market. The Shelby F-250 Super Baja is, in essence, a 2021 Ford F-250 Tremor turned up to 11. The Shelby truck takes advantage of the Power Stroke 6.7-liter diesel V8's amazing 475 horsepower and 1050 lb-ft of torque. And they add all the best off-roading bells and whistles money can buy.

Performance Upgrades
The California-based company will start with an F-250 Lariat with the Ford Ultimate package and they go to town upgrading every aspect of the suspension. Dual adjustable 2.5-inch Fox dampers at the front and Fox 2.5-inch external bypass dampers at rear help beef up the Baja's ability to absorb punishment on rough terrain. 37-inch BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain KM3 tires are wrapped around 18-inch Shelby aluminum wheels to transfer all 1050 foot-pounds to the ground.
