Ford is currently enjoying a string of positive novelties. For example, the Mustang Dark Horse R just debuted as a $145k racer for the 2024 Mustang Challenger season.
And we also heard they would try to build the V8 for as long as possible to assist their iconic Mustang in becoming the last ICE-powered muscle car standing in the way of the full EV lifestyle. But, of course, the latter is inexorable – so they are also diligently taking care of that.
More precisely, the Blue Oval Company just completed its massive upgrade works at its Rouge EV Center. Now Ford can finally triple the F-150 Lightning production capacity, hoping sales will follow suit. Speaking of the best-selling model in the F-Series, the 2024 F-150 is just around the corner and is tipped to arrive with the mid-cycle refresh.
However, some people do not even care about all that. Or the fact that other automakers just released their most influential vehicle of the year for the US market. And that's also valid for the imaginative realm of digital car content creators. For example, Jim, the virtual artist better known as jlord8 on social media, has not caught wind of the 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser because he is in full CGI van mode right now.
The pixel master usually takes a moment from his ongoing series to cater to the latest introductions for the US market. Still, so far (at the time of writing), the cool Land Cruiser 1958 or the squared Land Cruiser, plus the classic-styled First Edition, have yet to resonate with his CGI brush. Instead, the author continues along the lines of his digital van creations – just recently, he worked on stuff like the Cadillac Astro Escalade EXV, Oldsmobile Silhouette Astro 442, Buick Van National, Cadillac Seville APV, or Pontiac Trans Sport GXP.
Note how the van grind was entirely focused on the General Motors representatives. That is a consequence of his love for his 1986 Buick T-type, which influences his social media reel with many 1980s and 1990s digital creations. However, an eventual switch to Ford lore was also logical because his second ride is a 1995 Ford Thunderbird SC.
Given his recent MPV series, taking the 2023 Ford F-150 and making it a van worthy of the Econoline nameplate was not out of the equation. Interestingly, he chose the $61k F-150 Tremor as the starting point and made this 'Econoline Tremor' look like a tiny home on wheels that's about ready to take the owner and his family to the end of the (CGI) world. So, how do you feel about a massive truck-based van using the Tremor credentials? Cool, or not?
