When Ken walked into our Mare Island headquarters, he wasn't just looking for a restored Bronco — he had a vision. His Golden Retriever, Ajax, wasn't going to be left behind for weekend adventures. He was going to be right there with Ken, comfortable and happy, watching the world roll by from his own custom spot.

"I know this might sound a little different," Ken told our team during his initial consultation, "but Ajax and I are a packaged deal. Every adventure, every road trip — we do it together."

Building Something Special Together

The Heritage Edition was already perfect for Ken's vision — classic lines, modern reliability, and that unmistakable Bronco spirit that's ready for anything. But it was the custom dog bed integration that would make this build truly his.

Our fabrication team worked closely with Ken to design something that wasn't just functional, but felt like it belonged. Using premium materials that matched the Heritage Edition's interior, we crafted a sleeping area that seamlessly blended into the Bronco's design. Ajax needed to travel in comfort and style, whether they were driving up the canyons of the Roaring Fork Valley or just cruising around town on a sunny afternoon.

The Perfect Fit

The moment Ajax settled into his custom bed for the first time, we knew we'd nailed it. His tail was going a mile a minute as he claimed his spot, looking out the windows like he'd been waiting his whole life for this exact setup.

"It's like you built the whole truck around him," Ken laughed, watching Ajax get comfortable. "He looks so proud."

Made for Adventure

Now, months down the road, Ken’s Heritage Edition has become the foundation for countless memories. Whether it's Ajax’s golden coat catching the morning light as he peers out at mountain trails, the way he contentedly watches the scenery on long drives, or how he perks up the moment Ken grabs the keys — their Bronco has proven, the best modifications are the ones that bring families closer together.
