Roush Just Turned the F-150 Into a 700+ HP Street Truck

Roush is back with another take on the F-150, and it sticks to a formula they clearly like. This one is called the 2026 Nitemare.

At first glance, it does not look all that different. The base truck is still an F-150 XL or XLT, and the main new visual tweak is a fresh bedside graphic with “Nitemare” badging and a checkered flag theme. Not exactly subtle, but also not a full redesign.

Look a bit closer, and the usual Roush touches start to show. There’s an illuminated grille with Roush branding, a vented hood, and 22-inch gloss black wheels wrapped in General Tire G-MAX AS-07 tires. It also gets a cat-back exhaust and upgraded brakes with slotted rotors.

The suspension setup is fully reworked with coilovers, drop spindles, twin-tube dampers, progressive springs, and a thicker sway bar. The result is a truck that sits much lower, down 3 inches (76 mm) at the front and 5 inches (127 mm) at the rear. It gives it more of a street truck look than something built for dirt.

Inside, Roush has cleaned things up a bit. You get a fully carpeted cabin, embroidered mats, and a leather steering wheel with red carbon fiber accents. The seats are finished in Raven Black leather with red details and stitched headrests. There are also aluminum pedals, a serialized badge, and an optional carbon fiber trim package.

Under the hood, nothing changes unless you want it to. The standard truck keeps its stock setup, but there is an option to add a supercharger to the 5.0-liter V8. That pushes output to over 705 hp and 635 lb-ft (860 Nm).

Price-wise, the conversion adds $22,999 on top of the base F-150, and the supercharger kit is another $8,899.99. So it can get expensive quickly, but that has always been part of the Roush formula.
