A wise man once said, “In many ways, the work of a critic is easy… We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read,” and he wasn’t wrong. Negative criticism is fun to write, and seeing someone taken down a peg—particularly when they deserve it—is fun to read, but that doesn’t […]
For well over 40 years now, the Ram pickup has been one of the leading full-size trucks in the US; that’s a lot of years for a model to do its thing, making it older than the Chevy Silverado nameplate and almost as old as the Ford F-150. When it comes to the kinds of […]
When it comes to off-road vehicles, certain names have become legends: Jeep Wrangler, Land Rover, Ford Bronco, and Toyota’s TRD models. Up until about 45 years ago, there was another name often spoken alongside Jeep, which was the Harvester Scout. The Scout was first introduced in 1960, and for two decades, it offered impressive performance […]
Admittedly, this is not a question that keeps me up at night, but it’s a point of interest for those who are into high-performance electric sedans. There’s no denying that two of the leaders in this market are the newly updated Taycan Turbo GT and the Tesla Model S Plaid, both of which are high-performance […]
From what I’ve seen, few folks are as passionate about their vehicles as truck owners. It makes sense to me: people with trucks often depend on them to be able to get their jobs done and need to know they can count on them day after day. Even if you’re someone who has a truck […]
For years now, the Chevy Colorado has been one of my favorite trucks for sale to take off-road; its solid engineering and midsize design have made it an equally perfect choice for wide expanses and tight quarters. And yet, in recent years, Chevy has gone above and beyond to make it even better with more […]
From the outside, it’s easy to look at players of video games and assume we’re all quite similar, with the same tastes and preferences for our games. In reality, however, that’s far from the case—for every player who prefers stomping on turtles as an Italian plumber or jumping into a virtual warzone, there’s a player […]
Once upon a time, cars were the heart and soul of the auto industry. Trucks were for farmers and getting work done, and models that would today be called SUVs were a rarity, so most people drove cars. In that misty age, so long ago, standard four-door sedans were quite popular. However, for drivers looking […]
Many vehicles exist simply to get people from Point A to Point B, while others are designed to help us get some serious work done, delivering reliable power with plenty of muscle for towing. There also exists a particular subsect of vehicles for purely the joy of driving, offering bold performance and sleek handling that […]
For years now, Chevy has been leading the industry and ahead of the game in delivering impressive technology in their vehicles. They have some of the best tech features and options out there, but you won’t find them all on their starting trims for various models. It can take a bit of effort to put […]
Until recently, I felt like Jeep was asleep at the wheel—so to speak—when it came to the Wrangler. For a long time, the Wrangler had been arguably the undisputed king in the auto industry when it came to off-road SUVs, with little in the way of real competition beyond other Jeep models. With the release […]
I was eight years old the first time someone got annoyed with me enough to turn to me and, in exasperation, simply exclaim, “Would you get lost!?” It was a rhetorical question, of course, but on one level, I took it to heart; rather than continuing to play with them, I went off on my […]
A great truck can be many things to different people: a way to get to work each day, relax and enjoy yourself on the weekend, and a never-ending commitment to help friends and family move furniture. For many of us, however, a great truck isn’t just a vehicle that transports us to work; it’s a […]
Attention, Ford Bronco owners: please go get your vehicle dirty. There are enough mall crawlers out there without adding to it, and the Ford Bronco is undoubtedly one of the best off-road SUVs on the market. I’d go so far as to say it’s the best. It certainly has my vote, at least when it […]
There’s something to be said for relaxing, hitting the open road, and just going for a drive at night or early in the morning on the highway with few other vehicles around, just you and the pavement. But that’s not always the best way to unwind. Sometimes, you need to leave the road behind and […]
Full disclosure: despite certain similarities of beard, I am not, nor have I ever been, the famed 16th-century French astrologer and prognosticator Nostradamus. That being said, I will make a few predictions today about what the future might hold for the Jeep Wrangler, which will most likely not come true, but if they do, then […]
For the 2024 model year, Jeep is giving its iconic Wrangler a makeover and updates for its tech systems—but is it enough to keep up with the competition? It is no secret that Ford came out swinging with the Bronco aimed squarely at the Wrangler and its legacy of off-road domination. It is also no […]
No matter how you look at it, sports cars cost more than their tamer siblings. That’s the bad news; the good news is that there are still plenty of different options out there at a relatively wide range of prices, which means there is a used sports car that can meet almost any budget. Whether […]
Trucks these days offer tremendous power and capability that surpasses anything we’ve seen before, and they’ve recently been getting luxurious interiors and innovative technology that can outclass most SUVs. It’s a great time to be a truck fan, and one of my favorite pieces of tech on pickups these days is the multitude of cameras […]
Calling a BMW “luxurious” is a bit silly; it’s repetitive and a lot like calling a sedan a “car” or saying an SUV has a rear hatch. Simply by virtue of being a BMW, we already know a model will deliver impeccable luxury; what their vehicles do beyond that point truly defines them. There’s a […]
