The ’19 Ford F-350 Lariat, to be auctioned at Barrett-Jackson on October 23, made its debut at the 2018 SEMA Show.

Truck Hero to Auction ’19 Ford F-350 Lariat at Barrett-Jackson for Charity

Truck Hero’s 2018 SEMA Show “Ultimate Tailgate Truck” will be auctioned at Barrett-Jackson, Friday, October 23, at 5:30 p.m. All proceeds will benefit Building Homes for Heroes. Starting with a ’19 Ford F-350 Lariat and designed by Truck Hero engineers, the pickup features a crew cab, dual rear wheel, 8-ft. bed with a stock 6.7L diesel engine (with 935 lb.-ft. of torque and 450hp) and an automatic transmission. The 2WD chassis was lowered by ARFT's Speed Shop's custom-dropped air suspension with a 4-link rear end and Air Lift Performance 3P air management system on all four corners. Black, copper and smooth, this truck shines thanks to the Custom Cars & Concepts program at Michigan's Washtenaw Community College, with students shaving door handles and applying the mirror-perfect AkzoNobel Modern Classikk black paint.

Accents include a custom billet Ford oval and fender badges, all copper-plated. Other added touches include a Ford Performance tailpipe, BedRug bedliner, Husky Liners all-weather floor mats, ARP 12-point fasteners and a Kleinn Automotive train horn. This truck rides on custom Fuel Off-Road Dually Maverick 24-in. wheels that are copper-plated with black painted spokes and baby moon caps, wrapped in Dilente Bandit 285/40R24 tires. To top it off, an assembly of custom tailgating elements were designed that package under the truck bed cover and behind the tailgate to put on a complete party. The truck bed houses a remote-controlled, articulating 65-in. TV, custom bed slide with integrated inlaid wood game table and Maxxsonics audio speakers stuffed into UnderCover dual SwingCases (also remote-controlled), all covered up by Extang's Solid Fold 2.0 hard folding bed cover. On the back of the truck is a custom copper mount with an articulating Yeti cooler and grill.

The entire sale price of this truck will benefit Building Homes for Heroes, which makes a significant difference in the lives of wounded American service members from the Afghanistan and Iraq conflicts and their families since 2006. The organization gifts mortgage-free homes that meet the needs of the men and women who have selflessly served our country. These homes not only help to remove the family's financial burden, they help to restore the individual's freedom, and enable the veteran to lead a more independent and productive civilian life. To further assist veterans, the organization has added programs, including financial planning services, family funding and emergency support.

F-150

Here’s a first look at the rumored Tremor off-road package for the new Ford F-150, which will slot between the entry-level FX4 rugged package and the range-topping Raptor.

Following in the footsteps of the Tremor package for the Super Duty and Ranger, the Tremor package for the F-150 has a suspension lift as its primary feature.

The vehicle seen here equips the Tremor pack with the XLT trim level, and seems to feature a unique grille. Around back is a dual exhaust setup, which has not been seen on the all-new ’21 F-150 as of this point in time. A set of unique black wheels are wrapped knobby all terrain tires measuring 275 70 R18.

Launch timing of the Tremor package for the F-150 is currently unclear, but it wouldn’t be surprising to see it for the ’21 or ’22 model years.
