  1. Recently, Chevrolet introduced a 2019 Silverado 1500 1:1 size Lego model, which is 72 inches high (about 1829mm), 240 inches long (about 6096mm), 96 inches wide (about 2438mm). It costed 18 people for more than 2,000 hours and was completed by hand picking and installing 334,544 LEGO. The most common building block is the 2X8 stud brick. At the end of the day, the Lego Silverado weighed 3,307 pounds (about 1,500 kg), and it was very surprising that there were work lights and very fine details in this model.

    Although it doesn't seem to make any sense, the Lego Silverado model means that Chevrolet will continue to work with Warner Bros. At the same time, a customized small Silverado High Country will continue to appear in the upcoming Lego Movie 2 on February 8 this year.

    In reality, the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 was launched in July last year, with a price range of 29,795-54,495 US dollars. In terms of power, the 2019 Silverado is equipped with two modified 5.3L and 6.2L V8s engines and a 3.0L inline six-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine.

    Among them, the peak torque of the 5.3L V8 engine is 383N•m, and the peak torque of the 6.2L V8 engine is 460N•m. The data of the 3.0L L6 turbocharged engine has not been announced yet. In terms of gearbox, the 6.2L V8s engine and the new 3.0L inline 6-rigger engine match the 10-speed automatic transmission.

  3. Ford F-150 Which we are already very familiar with, the classic model has long dominated the sales list in the United States. Recently, Ford CEO Jim Hackett announced at the Deutsche Bank Global Automotive Industry Conference that "we will use batteries and hybrids to bring the F-series pickups into the electric age. We are also preparing the same for Ford Transit trucks. We launched the plug-in hybrid version of the Ford Transit truck and will electrify the Ford Transit series worldwide.

    However, F-150 won’t be the first electric pickup that Ford ever made. Ford has already produced one electric pickup, Ranger EV, which was appropriately built in Edison, N.J from 1998 to 2002.

    In last year, Ford announced that it planned to "make 16 electric vehicles to market by 2022," and said the first model to be launched would be a pure electric CUV with a 300-mile range. At that time, the plan was to launch the hybrid version of the F-150 by 2020. As for the pure electric version, it would be more backward. Obviously, under the pressure of Tesla and Rivian, Ford adjusted its product launch plan.

    In other words, the original planned F-150 hybrid version is still in production, but at least one of the F-series that will be launched later will be fully electric. This is just one of the many electric car announcements that Ford released last week. Other announcements include Ford and Volkswagen announced that they are considering co-developing electric vehicles; American automaker premium brand Lincoln also announced that it will produce a Ford Mustang Electric version of the electric car; Ford Mustang electric car should be Ford's first all-electric car, it will be designed and manufactured from the beginning, and will be listed next year.

  4. In last November, the much-anticipated Wrangler pickup Jeep Gladiator officially debuted at the Los Angeles International Auto Show. According to Jeep's plan, the new Gladiator will be officially delivered in the second quarter of this year. Recently, some foreign media reported that in addition to the three models already launched, Jeep will also launch a high-performance version of the gladiator.

  5. Have you experienced cross-country? If you are given an original Jeep Wrangler, would you drive it to cross country? of course not! the original Jeep Wrangler is not so suitable for off-road. Many people will modify it when they buy it back. Below, I personally put forward some suggestions on the modification of the jeep, hoping to help everyone to make fewer detours when modifying.

    As we all know, it is necessary to carry out high-altitude vehicles for off-road. Although the original Jeep's site is already much higher than the average car, it seems that it is not enough for off-road. Therefore, the first step in the modification is to raise the chassis of the car. In general, it is sufficient to raise the chassis by 2.5 inches. But if you want to drive a Jeep to conquer some rugged roads, you can also raise the chassis by 4 inches. In that case, the car looks like a lot of domineering, but the subsequent modification work that needs to be done will increase a lot.

    Second, improve shock absorption performance. Since it is off-road, the road conditions will certainly not be as flat as in the city. The road to be taken is definitely not a mess or a bump. In order to drive comfortably, shock absorbers are essential for jeep. The shock absorber has two kinds of damper damping and three-channel damper, which can be selected according to your own preferences and the road conditions to be taken.

    The third is the front grille. Engines are in high-power operation in the off-road process, and the engine compartment temperature must be very high. Therefore, a good grille can not only make the appearance of the whole car bright, but also ensure the ventilation and air intake effect of the engine compartment and reduce the temperature of the engine compartment.

    Fourth, the front bumper. In the off-road process, the front bumper can protect the front part of the car, including the grille, headlights and so on. In addition, it is best to install a winch on the front bumper. If the jeep is stuck in a deep pit or the mud can't come out, you can let friends or yourself get out of the trap with the winch.

    If you complete all the modifications for your Jeep mentioned above with high-quality auto parts, I believe you must have a great trip wherever you go.

  6. Most people like Jeep Wrangler. However, the Jeep Wrangler seems to be a semi finished product. So, modifications are always tied to the Jeep Wrangler and every Wrangler looks different after the modification. It depends on the level of the technician and the appetite of the host of the “beast”. I didn’t see a completely same outlook on two Wranglers and I believe it won’t appear in the future. What I want to say today, is that the several key points that you need to keep an eye on when modifying a Jeep Wrangler.

    First of all, if you want to conquer the rugged or off-road surface with your Jeep Wrangler, you must heighten the chassis of the Wrangler. It is not hard to imagine what will happen if the chassis is not high enough when you cross a rugged road. Therefore, the outer diameter of the Jeep Wrangler tire I have seen can reach an incredible 48 inches. It almost is high enough for all road conditions.

    If you install the giant tires to heighten the chassis, the following question is the steering shock absorber. The original steer shock absorber can’t support such a large tire. When come across the big pits or big obstacles, you are hard to grab the steering wheel under the huge reaction force. That’s very dangerous. So, we must install a high damping shock absorber to solve this problem.

    After the safe-guarding modifications, the exterior parts of the Jeep Wrangler also should be considered, such as the front and rear bumpers. A high-strength front bumper will be your pioneer to explore the unknown world. And the rear bumper can keep a spare tire for you in case of emergency. The front bumpers and rear bumpers from Motorshive Exterior Auto Parts Online Store can solve this question perfectly.

    The American style is often linked to the wild, the tough shape, the symbol of the body, and the upgrade of the Black Spider Kit, further highlighting the muscles of the car. The appearance after the modification looks aggressive and awkward. It is necessary remind everyone warmly, your vehicle should not be too close to it.

  7. Although positioned in the concept car, the Ford Ranger Storm is still based on the concept of the current Ford Ranger by adding kits. Ford's move is naturally considered for the aftermarket in South America. In appearance, the new Ford Ranger Storm concept car is fitted with Pirelli's MTR Scorpion all-terrain tires, matching 17-inch aluminum alloy wheels. After upgrading the tires, the vehicle posture of the new Ford Ranger Storm concept car has been significantly improved. However, in terms of chassis, the Ford Ranger Storm concept car did not upgrade the suspension system, still retaining the configuration of the regular version.

    In terms of appearance, the Ford Ranger Storm concept car is optimized for exterior details. The intake grille uses a letter grille that is similar to the US version of the Ranger Raptor, but the letters on the grille become Storm. And embellished with silver highlights. The fog lamp trim cover on both sides of the front bumper adjusts the form of the fog lamp and is composed of two LED light sources. A silver shield is added to the front bumper to embellish it. In terms of the kit, the Ranger Storm concept car adds a roof rack to the roof of the gantry, and the right fender adds an additional wading throat.

    The overall color of the car is dominated by two colors of orange and black. The black cross-country protection kit wraps the area under the cab, while the position of the container changes to the main color. This style of creation is very different from the Raptor version of the North American market.

    In terms of power, the Ford Ranger Storm concept car is powered by a 3.2-liter inline five-cylinder diesel engine with a maximum output of 200 hp and a maximum torque of 470 N·m. It is matched with a six-speed automatic transmission and a four-wheel drive system.
