This is the coolest Star Wars-themed Superduty Ford F-250 pickup truck in the universe but fortunately is not in a galaxy far, far away.

Ford Superduty has a reputation, throughout the galaxy, as one of the toughest consumer vehicles around. When Neal Sheppard of the YouTube channel Real Deal Neal at Wild Willies Customs was on commission by Jeremy Stryker to turn his Everest edition Superduty into the baddest truck around Neal knew exactly what he needed to do. Star Wars Storm Trooper theme. The video begins with a 55-second montage of the truck driving down various roads looking insanely intimidating and very white. The white is everywhere you wouldn't normally find colors such as the very visible heightened springs, the headlight housings, the front grill, the large tow mirrors, the tail-lights, the roof-mounted cab lights, side emblems, and wheels.

We get into the modifications at the 2:35 bit of the video where our presenter tells us that it sports a six-inch BDS lift kit. He has also painted the coils white to match the theme. This monster sits on 38-inch tall by 15 inch wide Toyo Open Country RT tires that wrap around some absolutely stunning 24 by 12 Axe Forged Compression wheels. The shocks have had an upgrade for Fox Shocks.

The front grille dons star white paint to bring out the Storm Trooper theme with LED lights that go back and forth such as on the KITT car. In the middle of the grille, we see an enlarged Ford emblem that has also had the whitening treatment. All of the amber light covers on the truck receive an upgrade to orange LED's with clear or white covers. In the rear of the truck, Neal shows us a large sit-on-top diamond plate toolbox that has, of course, white paint. He also shows us the rear lights which are also white to continue the theme throughout the truck. To finish off the theme we have a red lightbar between the tailgate and bumper that looks like the truck may be transporting Darth Vader's Light Saber.

Neal goes tells us that there are too many modifications on this truck is to mention but is still as ultra-reliable as it was when it left the factory. When it comes to Ford Superduty reliability is a necessity. These are work trucks, as Neal tells us his customer will be using it for that purpose. However, there's no reason that you can't look good and intimidating while doing it though. That's automotive swag, and we really like this one and we hope the Imperials do too.
