The Shelby Raptor taken and up-fitted by Addictive Desert Designs OffRoad (ADD) very well could be the future of off-road excitement. This truck is one of the most advanced and powerful out-of-the-box pre-runners on the market. Addictive Desert Designs created this next-step truck as a test platform for its Race Series R line of performance parts, a line of products inspired by the 800 HP Trophy Trucks that race across the desert of Baja California. ADD wanted to bring the excitement of the Trophy Truck to you at a fraction of the cost.

This inspiration can be seen in the ADD Shelby Raptor’s custom styling. That begins with things such as the race-styled bumpers that not only offer an aggressive face lift, but are rugged enough to handle the punishment of the desert. A 40-inch light bar populated with LEDs helps the driver navigate in the darkest of places, while side steps help protect the rocker panels and offer a boost to enter the cab.

Addictive Desert Designs’ Shelby Raptor not only emulates a Baja race truck in terms of styling, it captures its performance as well. It’s faster and has a better suspension than a standard Raptor. It’s capable of blazing through the deserts at speeds of more than 90 MPH.

Check out the video above and prepare to be blown away. We guarantee your jaw will drop when you see the ADD Shelby Raptor roosting through the sand.
