Ford’s newest performance pickup is built for high-speed off-road action across a variety of terrains, with Fox Racing Shox, healthy ground clearance, and a 2.0-liter biturbo diesel engine with a 10-speed paddle-shift gearbox. And despite the fact it’s got a Baja mode, it’s not coming to the US yet.

New research suggests that it may be possible to engineer cauliflower, broccoli, rapeseed, and other crops, so they're better suited to farming in a world beset by climate change. ​The key is in the gene that influences how these plants release their seeds.
