World's First Ford Bronco 6x6 'Dark Horse' Was In A High Speed Police Chase?
Highlights
Apocalypse Manufacturing, a company that builds and modifies SUVs and trucks to have 6x6 all wheel drive systems created the world's first 6x6 Ford Bronco last month. Named the Apocalypse 'Dark Horse', this 'build number 1' featured a turbocharged V6 engine manufactured by Ford, tuned and mated to a full exhaust upgrade to produce 395 bhp (400 hp). The party piece of the car however, is the addition of 2 wheels and a 6-wheel-drive system, giving this car a unique look.

This video was a clever little joke by Apocalypse on O.J. Simpson, an American Football player who is best knows for being tried for the murder of his wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman, and was infamously involved in a high speed police chase being driven in his white Ford Bronco. The joke was made evident by the inclusion of an American football and a juice bottle, as O.J. was nicknamed 'The Juice'.
