Rhino XT is a fast and furious truck<\/h4>\n

Star car from ‘The Fate of the Furious’<\/p>\n

And you thought the Tesla Cybertruck was wild.<\/p>\n

A unique custom Ford-150 that looks like an armored sports car is making its debut at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Houston on Saturday, October 22.<\/p>\n

The Hamba was built by US Specialty Vehicles (USSV), which is known for converting Ford trucks into military-inspired machines that have been featured in the Fast & Furious film franchise.<\/p>\n

USSV distributor Steve Waldie of Inerstate Motorsport in New Jersey said it was the brainchild of the company’s Chinese owner, Tiger, and that its name roughly translates to “strong.”<\/p>\n

The one-off prototype is Tiger’s idea for an off-road trophy truck-style racing vehicle that could lead to future versions.<\/p>\n

It started its life as a two-door F-150 with a 5.0-liter V8 and has had its frame shortened and fitted with the new aluminum and composite body, which is not actually armored and features a hatchback instead of a bed. The vehicle rides lower than a pickup on 35-inch tires and a suspension system designed for high speed off-road driving.<\/p>\n

Its interior is upgraded with two large screen infotainment system displays and new seating front and rear.<\/p>\n

The Hamba is being offered without a reserve price or pre-auction estimated value, so the market will decide what it is worth.<\/p>\n
