The Fastest Pickup Trucks in the World: A Guide to Supercars of the Road
But the Syclone's days at the top were numbered. Just like my list. And that's because the Ford Raptor got faster. My boy John Hennessy decided it still wasn't fast enough. So he upgraded its DNA like a Jurassic Park scientist and gave us the Velociraptor. 2016, the Velociraptor 650 was a supercharged version of the F-150 that went zero to 60 in 4.9 seconds. It's not bad, but still not good enough. So in 2017, Hennessy gave us the Velociraptor 600 twin turbo. This was based on the second gen EcoBoost Raptor and managed to squeak past the Syclone finally, with a 4.2 second zero to 60. Boom, sorry Syclone! We go back to the nineties where Clarissa is still explaining it all. But that ain't all because in 2019, Velociraptor V8 replaced the EcoBoost V6 with a supercharged V8. Good for zero to 60 time of 4.1 seconds. Then Hen Hen dropped the Venom 775, a coyote V8 F-150 with a 2.9 liter supercharger bolted onto it. The weight saved by not having the four wheel drive system from the Raptor means this thing can scoop zero to 60 in four seconds flat. Barely edging out the Hennessy F-150 is the Roush Nitemare, a truck so bad that they couldn't even spell nightmare, right? This souped up F-150 also has a supercharged Coyote V8 hitting 60 in 3.9 seconds.
Guys, we're running out of room on the mono-list. You know what else hits 60 in 3.9 seconds? The Ram TRX. They're calling this thing, the Raptor killer and for good reason. It's got fricking hell cat in it. (truck engine revs) I drove one. It's pretty fast, very big car. Speaking of hell cat, maybe you're a hell cat boy but the Ram ain't your style. Get yourself a Hennessy Maximus 1000. The hell cat power Jeep Gladiator that goes zero to 60 in 3.9 seconds. What's that? You still want to go faster, what's wrong with you? Okay, fine. I got something for you over here. It's called the Hennessy Venom 800. If you're a math boy. You might've noticed that Venom 800 is bigger than Venom 775. That's because it has a bigger supercharger and can do zero to 60 in totally unnecessary 3.6 seconds.
But guess what? Shelby decided to throw their cowboy hat into the ring with this, the 770 horsepower F-150 Super Snake. It goes zero to 60 in 3.45 seconds. Cause why not? Also it looks freaking sick. But there's one more truck even faster than the Super Snake. But I want to take second to talk about electric pickup trucks because they are coming and they're gonna be faster than anything else on this list. I'm talking the Hummer EV, the Rivian R1T, the Tesla Cybertruck all have claimed zero to 60 times of around three seconds flat, which is insane.
But as of right now in 2021, you can't actually buy any of those trucks. So I'm just gonna make them honorable mentions. They're not gonna go on the list. And with that out of the way, let's talk about the current fastest pickup truck that you can buy today. I'm talking about the 2021 Hennessy Mammoth 1000. It's a Ram TRX with 1012 horsepower and 969 nice foot pounds of torque. And if the power wasn't enough. Hennessy lifts the already lifted truck an additional 2.5 inches. You know, because you want to be as far from the ground as possible when you're driving that fast. Goes zero to 60 in 3.2 seconds. That's as fast as a McLaren F1, but it's a fricking truck.
I truly think this is the pinnacle of modern gas powered production trucks. There is no way a manufacturer is going to beat this until they do. Listen I love being proved wrong. So we'll see what insanely quick trucks come out in 2022. Thank you for watching. Be sure to like this video to let us know that we're doing a good job.

bush babelfor today, back to the video.- Now this isn't a definitive listof every single pickup truck okay.That video would be a million hours long.We made this list to show you guyshow bonkers trucks have become.But first we got to knowwhere we came from, right?So we're gonna go back to the seventiesto the gram papa of fast trucks,the Dodge lil red express.We've talked about this truck on this showa few times before and for good reasonit's the first fastproduction truck ever made.And it was all thanksto a regulation loopholeduring the oil embargo in the late 1970s.At the time of its release,the little red expresswas not only the fastest truck around.It was the fastestproduction vehicle period.And its zero to six time of 7.9 secondsis still pretty fast for a truck this big.It would be another 11years until another truckchallenged the little red express.As Omar from the Wire said,when you come for the king, best not miss.And then he whistled which I would do,but I don't know how to whistle.Chevy did not miss with the 1990 454 SS.This performance bearing ofthe C 1500 halftone truckhad a massive 7.4 literV8 that made 255 HRSPRS,had Bilstein shocks anda front stabilizer barfor improved handling.And it could skew fromzero to 60 in 7.1 seconds.Now, just a few years after Chevy debutedtheir first performance truck,the blue oval came outwith their own high-performance truck.The Lightning.Ah!Besides having a 5.8 literV8 that made 240 horsepower.The Lightning also handled pretty goodfor a truck from the nineties,and it maintained the samepayload capacity as the F-150,making it not only fastbut useful as well.And this boy went from zeroto 60 in an astonishing,record tying 7.1 seconds.Fast.Bout as fast as trucks could go back then.But there is anothertruck from the ninetiesthat was way fasterand far less practical.I'm talking about theGMC Syclone with an S.It debuted in 1991and is probably the leastfunctional truck on this list.It had a payload capacity of 500 poundsand the ability to towmaybe one hot dog cart.But it didn't matter because it was fasterthan a Lamborghini machine Diabloand it only had half asmany cylinders, six of them.The Lamborghini machine Diablo had 12.So just how fast wasthe Syclone with an S?Well, it depends on who you ask,but four out of five dentists agreethat the Syclone with an S hit zero to 60in 4.3 seconds.There it goes, straight to thetop of the mono-list for now.Fast forward 10 years.It's the 2000s, baby.We survived Y2K.And we see another wave offast trucks begin to emerge.Chevy's contribution tothis era of fast trucksis the Silverado SS whichstands for as we all know,seriously sassy.Six liter high output Vortec enginecould make 345 horsepowerand get this sassy littlestud up to 60 in 6.4.So not as fast as the Syclonewith an S, but pretty fast.The Silverado wasn't the fastestChevy pickup of the 2000s.Max threatened to sue me if Ididn't include this next one.Max, stop it.Even when I kept sayingMax this is not a truck,it's a blobby Ute.He sicked his team oftop-notch lawyers on meand I caved.I can't afford it anymore Max.Anyway, the Chevy SSR wasan abomination of a vehiclethat came out at a time whenevery manufacturer was makingplastically retro looking things.And while it's definitelynot as functional or normalas a Silverado, it is faster.And it did come in purple.So in 2005, you could get anSSR with an LS2 under the hoodwhich gives you a zero to60 time of 5.5 seconds.Probably the most iconicfast truck from this eraand possibly everis the second coming ofthe Ford SVT Lightning.Ah!This time around SVT droppedthe supercharged 5.4 liter V8and a good 360 horsepower,a huge upgrade over the previous gen.This performance truck also looked fastwith a lowered stance and a sweet body kitwith flared sides, just like my pants.Oh, this boy was quick.He went zero to 50 in 5.2.Also, I'm trying to, I'mstarting to see a trend.So I'm just going tosave myself some time,make a little gap.The Lightning only heldfastest truck of the 2000sfor a couple of yearsbefore a bigger, baddercompetitor came along.One with as many cylindersas shrimp have legs.Talking about the Dodge SRT-10came out of nowhere in 2004.Dodge went full Dodge and threw the V10from the Viper into theirredesigned Ram pickup.Not only did it have 500 HRSPRSDodge also did a really cool thingand put a six speedmanual transmission in it.I see.It also came with front andrear spoilers and racing stripesbecause duh.Even though it weighed over 357 stonethe SRT-10 could scoot tozero to 60 miles per hourin 4.9 seconds.Still not as fast as the Syclone with an Sbut it was an actual truckand not a cheater boy.And in case you didn't figureit out, shrimp have 10 legs.Max Googled it.Just a year after this monstrosityDodge would be beatenby a different companyand their own truck.Talking about the HennessyVenom 800 TT SRT-10.You might know Hennessy asthe Texas based tuning companythat makes fast cars even faster.I made an up to speed on it, check it out.I'll put the link in the description.But Hennessy also (bleeps) with trucks.In 2005, they took the SRT-10,slapped two spinney boyson the V10.the turbskies bumped power up to 800which helped this 5,400pound beast get up to 60 in,so close, 4.4 seconds.And I know some of you guysare at home or at work rightnow, probably on the toilet.And you're saying James, Hennesseyis an aftermarket company.I thought you were justdoing production trucks.Well, guess what?Hennessey builds brand newvehicles that you can buywith a 36,000 mile warranty.And that's why we'reincluding them on the list.Speaking of big spoilers,you're gonna see more Hennessyon this list than theNotorious BIG's birthday party.Apparently the algorithm isreally favoring likes right now.So if you could help meout and hit the like buttonit'll get this video infront of more people.That means more views.That means more videos for you guys.And with that, we're jumping into 2010.Angry Birds was sweeping the nation,Snooki was becoming a household nameand Ford was about to kickoff a new era of fast truckswith you guessed it, SVT Raptor.This truck was supposed tobe the third gen Lightninguntil Ford decided to switch gearsand design it for off-road racing.This is the new definitionof bad-ass fast truck.How fast was it?It went zero to 60 in 6.2.Even though this was Ford'sflagship high performance truck,it didn't take long forother trucks to catch up.Just a year after the Raptor debutedthe Ford F-150 EcoBoost setan even faster zero to 60 timeof six seconds.Now I know a lot of V8 dudeslike to hate on the EcoBoostbut you can't argue with facts.All right, facts don'tcare about your feelings.Neither do zero to 60 times.In fact, right now the EcoBoost V6is the only engine youcan even get in a Raptor.Then Chevy released theSilverado High Country.This wasn't even marketed as a fast truck.It's a luxury truck.It's got a fricking heatedleather steering wheel.This bad boy isn't evensupposed to go fast,zero to 60 5.7.And because every truck is fast nowI'm just gonna rattle through them.2015 Dodge 1500 R/T Hemiis a 400 horsepower rearwheel drive only sport truckcame with 22 inch wheels.Put down a zero to 60 time of 5.4 seconds.Toyota Tundra superchargedTRD 4.4 seconds.That's a whole secondfaster than the Dodge,but still slower thanthe Syclone with an Smade more than 20 years later.But the Syclone's daysat the top were numbered.Just like my list.And that's because theFord Raptor got faster.My boy John Hennessy decidedit still wasn't fast enough.So he upgraded its DNA likea Jurassic Park scientistand he gave us the Velociraptor.2016, the Velociraptor 650was a supercharged version of the F-150that went zero to 60 in 4.9 seconds.It's not
