Meet the MegaBronc, a Ford Bronco/F-250 mash-up that seats seven:
The MegaBronc is based on a Ford F-250 diesel truck with Bronco-inspired modifications, like a removable top over a third row of seats.
The truck bed is now six inches shorter, but the vehicle itself is eight inches wider. Those tires are 40 inches. The price is much bigger, too. From 1978 to 1996, the Ford Bronco was basically a regular-cab pickup truck with a bench seat in the bed and a removable cap over the rear seat and cargo area. One company, Centurion Vehicles, said,"But what if it were a four-door?" and grafted the tail ends of Broncos onto crew-cab F-series trucks to create the three-row Centurion Classic.
, the MegaBronc's rearmost passengers can go al fresco. To engineer that feat, MegaRexx removed the back wall of the F-250's cab, welded the bed to the cab, and installed second-row captain's chairs and third-row seats from an Expedition. A steel roll structure flanks the third-row seats and provides a mounting location for the shoulder belts and LED lighting. Legroom is extravagant, and there's still significant cargo space behind the third row.
The bed loses six inches of overhang and is welded to the cab. The flatter Bronco-style rear quarter-panels also widen the truck.Perhaps unsurprisingly, the MegaBronc drives like a lifted F-250 diesel. The axles got 4.56:1 gears to offset the big tires and the speedometer is corrected, so it really just feels like a taller Super Duty until you look in the rearview mirror and see three rows of seats. The stock powertrain retains its factory warranty, too.
