The GAS PBR Raptor is a custom truck designed for the Milwaukee-based brewery. You might remember GAS (Galpin Auto Sport) from the MTV show Pimp My Ride. The SVT Raptor is a beast on its own, but the tuning house managed to make it more eye-catching and powerful.
The exterior additions to the GAS PBR Raptor include a bright green paint job, custom black grille, remote-control tonneau cover and a 18-inch matte black wheels and the suspension was lowered. The interior is highlighted by green stitched suede seats, a custom suede headliner and pillars and a contrast-stitched steering wheel. The engine has been pushed from 411hp to 600hp thanks to a Rousch supercharger and a new performance exhaust system. The truck features no visual nods to the brewery, which may not be such a bad thing.
