"Unique DIY Ford Bronco Built on 2004 F-150 Proves Its Worth"

A DIY Ford Bronco built from a 2004 F-150 is listed for sale at $20,000. Crafted by Dan Hickey, the custom off-roader involved stripping the bed, doors, electrical system, interior, and safety devices, as well as cutting two and a half feet from the frame. A custom-fabricated body lift was added, along with a roll hoop for rigidity. The back half of the Bronco was closed in with a Leer truck bed topper, and the roof is not removable. The vehicle is powered by a remanufactured 5.4-liter V8 and features stock suspension, Raptor wheels, and BF Goodrich all-terrain tires. Hickey hopes to build another one in the future.

Toyota Land Cruiser makes a comeback in the USA.

Toyota has announced that the Land Cruiser name is returning to its U.S. lineup on an all-new model. The latest version of the Land Cruiser was launched globally in 2022 and is built on the same truck platform as the Toyota Sequoia and recently unveiled 2024 Lexus GX. Positioned as a serious, but premium off-roader, the Land Cruiser is so popular that Toyota announced last year it was sold out into 2026. Toyota didn't offer any details about the U.S. market model, but the Land Cruiser is offered around the world with a selection of turbocharged V6 engines.

Toyota Land Cruiser makes a comeback in the USA.

Toyota is bringing back the Land Cruiser nameplate to the United States, with rumors suggesting that it will be the next-generation Land Cruiser Prado. The ladder frame has been developed with electrification in mind, meaning it can be used for hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and even pure EVs. The new Land Cruiser Prado is expected to be slightly longer, wider, and taller than the outgoing model and will likely be sold with a hybrid powertrain. A full reveal is expected to take place in the coming weeks.
