American automaker Ford has unveiled the concept for the F-100 Eluminator, a retro pick-up truck powered by components used in the Mustang Mach-E GT Performance Edition.
The vehicle is powered by two electric motors that together produce 480 hp and 634 lb-ft of torque. In addition, the all-while-drive truck will feature a wide range of accessories and upgrades. These will include a custom chassis by the Roadster Shop, a billet aluminum dashboard by JJR Fabrication, an avocado-tanned leather interior designed by MDM Upholstery, and a sleek Avalanche Gray paint job with Ceraktoke Copper accents by Brad X Customs.
Lastly, the F-100 Eluminator will also come equipped with 19x10 aluminum wheels built by Forgelin, which will be wrapped by Machlenin Latitude performance tires.
