?? ??  Though it may look like just another truck on the jobsite, Romans’ fire-breathing Fummins is easily sending 1,250 rwhp to the pavement according to the folks at Fleece. Even though horsepower beyond 1,000 rwhp proved unattainab­le on the chassis dyno due to too much tire spin, the truck’s rolling four-wheeldrive burnouts sure make its 1,200+ power figure believable. How many 8,000-pound trucks do you know of that can blow off all four tires between 30 and 65 mph?

?? ??  We’re all about the de-badged, clean-look on a healthy-running street truck. But with so much work put into it, it was hard for Romans not to splurge a little. These under-the-radar badges offer a hint as to what the Ford is packing under the hood. However, we doubt anyone would suspect this “funny sounding” Super Duty is turning out well north of 1,000 hp.
