Check Out Brian Deegan's Metal Mulisha F-150
What else would a big-time motocross racer drive than a wild, stand out F-150?
1. Personal Expression
When you're a famous freestyle motocross rider and owner of a lifestyle clothing brand known as Metal Mulisha, you don't just drive around in some boring, stock truck. And Brian Deegan most certainly does not. Deegan's custom 2013 Ford F-150 sports a number of unique touches, but the inspiration for his build actually came out of a business deal with Mickey Thompson, who helped him create his own tire called the Deegan 38. The result is a ride worthy of a Truck Trend feature, and most certainly worth a closer look on our part.

2. Branded Showcase
Deegan's personal company has produced a number of automotive accessories in recent years, so it should come as no surprise that his personal ride sports many of them. Starting with a stock F-150, he added a Pro Comp Metal Mulisha edition 6-inch lift. That made room, of course, for the Deegan 38 tires, which measure out at 35x12.50R20. The wheels are also Pro Comp Metal Mulisha edition pieces, in this case spanning 20x10 inches.

3. Standing out From the Crowd
As you might've already guessed, Deegan isn't the kind of guy who conforms with the masses. His truck reflects that desire to stand out from the crowd as well, with a vintage fighter plane wrap that grabs attention wherever it goes. It also mirrors the look present on Deegan's race trucks. Other visual goodies include N-Fab bumpers, Rigid lighting, Spyder headlights and taillights, and a Tire Gate tire carrier.

4. Drivetrain
A trusty Coyote 5.0-liter V8 powers Deegan's one-of-a-kind ride, with performance modifications, capped at a K&N cold-air intake and Gibson cat-back exhaust. And, of course, a Metal Mulisha exhaust tip. The rear end is stock but sports low 4.10:1 gears and a Mag-Hytec diff cover.

5. Branding at its Finest
The F-150 is a perfect addition to Deegan's brand, which also includes an entry in the Monster Jam series, not to mention the Pro Lite and Pro 2 classes in the LOORRS series. Deegan uses his truck to haul his motorcycles and buddies all over Southern California, where we're sure he gets more than his fair share of attention.
