New Ford F150 Truck Created For Halo 5
Ford has created a new truck specifically for use in the upcoming video game, “Halo 5: Guardians” – but here, let them tell you more about it in their official press release…
The Ford F-150 Halo Sandcat is a one-of-a-kind vehicle inspired by Halo’s United Nations Space Command vehicle design. It will be on display at the 2015 Electronic Entertainment Expo [E3] this week in Los Angeles.
Based on the all-new Ford F-150, F-150 Halo Sandcat is special enough to have been officially designated the M552 codename by the United Nations Space Command – closely matching F-150’s official Ford codename, P552.
The F-150 Halo Sandcat started as a 2015 Ford F-150 Lariat SuperCrew 4×4 with 3.5-liter EcoBoost® engine and FX4 off-road package. To turn the truck into the Sandcat, Galpin Auto Sports added an arsenal of modifications to give it a United Nations Space Command militaristic style that Halo fans will instantly recognize. The F-150 Halo Sandcat starts with Addictive Desert Designs’ Baja XTR off-road conversion kit, which includes custom FOX Racing shocks, Deaver leaf springs, a Currie full floater rear axle, ADD fenders, side steps, a chase rack and 17-inch wheels with off-road tires to go along with a full custom Halo body wrap. Inside, there’s a Microsoft Xbox One custom gaming system with displays mounted in the rear head restraints.
The Ford F-150 Halo Sandcat will be on display in the South Hall entrance of the Los Angeles Convention Center. It will also be shown at several public events leading up to the launch of “Halo 5: Guardians” on October 27, 2015.
