2025 Mack Pickup just shocked everyone by dropping their first-ever pickup truck for 2025! Yeah, the company that builds those massive semi-trucks now has a full-size pickup ready to take on Ford, Ram, and Chevy. I got an early look at this beast, and let me tell you – it’s wild.
First Look
Picture this: a huge grille that looks like it could eat a Prius for breakfast, LED headlights that stretch almost to the fenders, and a stance that screams “move over.” The 2025 Mack Pickup (they’re calling it the Mack Granite Hauler for now first edition) sits on 22-inch black wheels wrapped in all-terrain tires. The bed is 6.5 feet long with built-in tie-downs, power outlets, and even a 120-volt inverter built right into the tailgate. Open the door and you’re hit with leather seats, a 17-inch touchscreen (bigger than most laptops), and real wood trim. It feels like a luxury SUV had a baby with a construction site.
Powerful Engine
Under the hood is where things get crazy. Mack stuffed a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 that pumps out 700 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. Yes, you read that right – 700 horses! It’s paired with a 10-speed automatic and full-time four-wheel drive. Mack says 0-60 happens in under 4 seconds. That’s faster than some sports cars! There’s also a diesel option: a 5.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six making 450 hp and a insane 900 lb-ft of torque. Towing? Try 18,000 pounds when properly equipped. This thing will pull your boat, your camper, and probably your neighbor’s house.
Mileage
Okay, nobody buys a 700-hp truck for gas mileage, but Mack surprised us here. The gasoline V8 gets 15 mpg city and 21 mpg highway thanks to cylinder deactivation and a mild hybrid system that adds 50 hp of electric boost. The diesel is even better – 23 mpg highway. That’s pretty solid for something this big and powerful. Real-world testers are already saying they’re seeing close to those numbers even when loaded up.
Price
Here’s the part everyone’s talking about. The base model starts at $68,900, which actually undercuts loaded-up Ford F-150 Raptors and Ram TRXs. But if you want the full Granite Hauler Black Edition with every option (adaptive air suspension, 360-degree cameras, massaging seats, the works), you’re looking at $99,500. Mack says the first 500 buyers get a special badge and free maintenance for three years. Trucks start hitting dealers in spring 2025, and the order books are already filling up fast.
