In 2024, Shelby American put 785 hp into an F-150 Lariat and asked $139,995 for it. Two model years later, the formula has been tuned rather than reinvented: a little more power, almost the same price, and a second truck for buyers who never leave the pavement.
The 2024 story
The 2024 Shelby F-150 was built on an F-150 Lariat SuperCrew 4x4 and limited to 800 trucks for the model year. A Gen 5 Whipple supercharger on the 5.0-liter Coyote V8 brought output to 785 hp. Fox shocks with internal bypass, a 3-inch lift and 35-inch all-terrain tires made it an off-road truck first, and the trucks were sold through Ford dealers.
What happened next
For 2026, Shelby's model pages list two trucks on the 2026 F-150 Lariat 4x4. The Shelby F-150 keeps the lifted off-road stance, now on KING Race Series coilovers, 22-inch wheels and 35-inch BFGoodrich KO3 tires. The F-150 Super Snake is lowered and set up for the street. Both start at $140,795, including the donor truck, and both are rated at 810+ hp on 93-octane fuel.
The way the power is sold has changed too. Shelby now lists the supercharger as a post-title option: the truck is sold and registered first, and the supercharger is fitted afterward. The off-road truck is capped at 600 units for the U.S.

Our read
An $800 rise in two years is close to standing still at this price. Shelby is holding the line at about $140,000 and adding variety instead, and the smaller run for the off-road truck suggests it is building to a narrower pool of buyers. Selling the supercharger after titling keeps the base truck as Ford built it, which is the most likely reason for the change.
