Tesla Tundra, GMC Jimmy V-8 By Tim Esterdahl Published: 2023-08-30T19:29:45+00:00 Updated: 2026-01-28T18:30:41+00:00 ![Featured image]() In this Livestream, Publisher Tim Esterdahl is joined by special guest David Boyd from All Terrain Nation. This dynamic duo cover the [Ford Lobo]() coming to the U.S., a [Tesla Cybertruck]() made to look like a [Toyota Tundra]() and Dave’s new toy. Kicking off with the Ford Lobo, this is news coming from a trademark filling Ford made earlier in the week. Next, the Tesla Cybertruck is getting closer to being delivered to customers, and Tesla is having fun with it. First, the automaker wrapped the truck to look like a Ford F-150, and then this week it wrapped the [Cybertruck like a Toyota Tundra](). Fun times over there. There was another interesting news story with a rumor that a [GMC Jimmy]() was actually on the drawing board with a V-8 engine under the hood. The Jimmy didn’t make it into production. Next, Boyd brought home a new toy to go along with his Ford Bronco. It is a [2024 Ford Mustang](), and while we don’t cover muscle cars, Esterdahl and Boyd just had to talk about it for a while. Finally, the conversation wraps up with discussions on GM’s roll-out of vehicles and answering viewer comments.
