In what we’re hoping is an industry trend that’s just getting started, a new sport truck has been introduced by the Ford Motor Company. The 2025 Ford F-150 Lobo joins the Ford Maverick Lobo compact pickup in showrooms this fall, as Ford continues to explore the “white space” possibilities of high-end, high-performance trucks that don’t have any off-road pretense at all. Back in the 1980’s and 1990’s, the top trucks in the lineups of any automaker were hot on-road-oriented models like the Chevrolet Silverado 454SS, the Ford F-150 Lightning (with a V-8, not an electric powertrain), the GMC Syclone, and the Viper-engined Dodge Ram SRT-10. But as off-road looks and off-road abilities started to become more desirable, those street trucks quietly disappeared. Now with the F-150 Lobo, Ford is dipping its toes back into the full-size sport truck waters, and it’s doing so with a V-8-powered crew cab model based on the STX trim. Featuring a lowered suspension, 10-piece bodykit, standard Coyote 5.0-liter V-8, two-speed four-wheel drive, and a host of visual changes, the new F-150 Lobo will be an option package instead of a standalone trim, different from how it’s being done on the Maverick Lobo. It’s meant to be a starting point for customizers, offering a blank performance canvas for people who want to spend a little more than the $59,995 starting price (including destination fee).
Deliveries for the new 2025 Ford F-150 Lobo start this fall, but you can order one now at Ford’s website. Or sit and enjoy our preview of Ford’s newest (but hopefully not last) sport truck trim!

Maverick lobo looks better, but it needs a better engine
In Mexico is this called the lobo lobo?
Now it just needs that sweet Ford Performance supercharger…
That looks like the front end of a 2015 Chevy Silverado. Or what the from end of a 2015 Chevy Silverado should have evolved into
After all the leaks, this thing came out fast
