Daring to go against the trend of 'bigger is better' for sport trucks, Ford's Special Vehicle Team (SVT) developed the Sport Trac Adrenalin Concept with the idea of crafting a 4-passenger vehicle with four doors and a 4-foot bed into a mid-sized SUV. The Sport Trac Adrenalin Concept was to be powered by the same 4.6-liter SOHC V8 engine found in the 2004 SVT Mustang Cobra, which was mated to the same 6-speed automatic transmission first used in the Lincoln Navigator, and it was said to be ideally suited for both stop-light drag races and hauling a trailer with up to 6,000 pounds. This Sport Trac Adrenalin Concept debuted at the 2005 New York Auto Show and was retained by Ford before it was sold in 2010. While the Adrenalin Concept never made its way to full production, some of its styling cues made their way to later Ford production vehicles, and it is a compelling example of what would have been a very stylistic addition to Ford's lineup. Almost 10 years after its introduction, the beefed-up Sport Trac is still fondly remembered by enthusiasts as a light truck with serious attitude.
