STORY
The vehicle started off as a daily driver because I needed something with 3 rows of seating. But, like every car guy, I wasn't able to keep it stock. I started looking up what parts were available for it. That’s when I found out that Wald International made the Black Bison body kit for it. So, I began modding the vehicle with the help of Infinite Auto Design in Huntington Beach.
