Some off-roaders are content exploring local parks and woods. In some areas, that’s enough for years of great outings. If you’re like me, though, you believe the best thing about off-roading is discovering new parts of this great nation. Planning a weekend, a week-long vacation, or even a whole summer around far-flung off-road destinations is […]
EVs aren’t coming to motorsports—they’re already here. The FIA paved the way with the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship in 2014. Its success led to other international series like FIA ETCR (Electric Touring Car Racing), the Jaguar I-Pace eTrophy, the FIM Enel MotoE World Cup, and the FIA Rallycross World Championship to showcase high-speed […]
There’s nothing like hopping into a truck and exploring the farthest-flung parts of North America. The rugged frames, big engines, high towing capacity, and tall ground clearance of trucks produce an unforgettable adrenaline rush when you head off-road and hit the highways. By looking at used trucks for sale, you can get an amazing value […]
Almost as long as cars have existed, people have raced them. From early point-to-point races like the 1908 New York to Paris event to modern short tracks, superspeedways, and road courses, thousands of circuits have existed in the past 150 years. Today, the National Speedway Directory and RacingIn.com estimate there are over 1,200 active race […]
Land Rover is one of the OG off-road automakers. Maurice Wilks conceived the company’s first 4×4 in 1947, and the Land Rover Defender is a big part of that history. This SUV debuted in 1983 with the Land Rover One Ten and enjoyed a three-decade-plus run before the recently formed Jaguar Land Rover sent it […]
Finding the perfect used Chevy for sale can feel like trying to find Waldo. The same rings true for the Chevy Silverado 1500.

For over 20 years, the sport bike market has been flagging. According to the most recent IIHS data, the percentage of registered US motorcycles classified as sport bikes fell from 7.1% in 2002 to as low as 4.9% in 2020.

The Toyota Tacoma is famous for having many trims and packages to choose from. The current lineup includes eight standalone trims, many of which are geared toward off-roaders or branded with the TRD (Toyota Racing Development) moniker.

Motorcycle enthusiasts like me undoubtedly remember the Japanese liter bike “horsepower wars” waged from the 1990s to the late 2000s. Although the superbike era unofficially began in the early 1970s with the Honda CB750 and Kawasaki Z1 900, it shifted into high gear (pardon the pun) surrounding the turn of the century. The economy was […]
Change is inevitable on the Formula One circuit. There were times when fans thought Mercedes domination would go on forever or that we’d never see a day without Lotus and Brabham on the track.

One of the reasons for buying a large SUV has long been the ability to tow trailers, small campers, and other equipment. Even if someone is trying to get away from it all, they usually have toys they want to bring with them. The 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee has found its way to North American […]
Ever since Ducati introduced its first motorcycle in 1950, the Italian company has been known for sleek, powerful machines that are equally at home on the track and the road. After three-quarters of a century, Ducati is running as strong as ever. In 2024, they swept the manufacturer’s titles in the MotoGP Grand Prix, FIM […]
The word “supercar” is enough to make plenty of mouths drool—including mine. Ever since the 1966 Lamborghini Miura unofficially launched the segment, exotic cars have offered mind-melting power, handling, and style to those who can afford them (maybe someday I’ll join that list). The best part is that more supercars come along all the time […]
After seeing sales numbers for its Ram truck brand drop three years running, Stellantis decided the time had come to revamp its 2500 and 3500 series pickup trucks. On January 7, they unveiled the first major facelift to the Ram Heavy Duty since the fifth generation launched in 2019. Although officially still part of the […]
There are plenty of reasons half-ton trucks like the Chevy Silverado 1500 are so popular. These pickups offer excellent power, hauling, and off-road ability for everyday drivers and even some commercial applications while still being road-friendly. You can do a lot with a half-ton—and they don’t require a commercial driver’s license nor massive arm muscles […]
For more than 75 years, Lotus Group has been a paragon of the luxury sports car market. With a history including seven Formula One constructor’s championships and a cavalcade of famous vehicles like the Seven and Elan S2, this UK automaker built a legion of fans with its reputation for pristine aerodynamics and track-ready handling—and […]
In the modern age of off-roading, it’s about more than having the biggest engine, strongest transmission, and toughest axles. Just like automotive technology has upgraded the on-road experience, it can also enhance off-road excursions. The right technology can help you find your way on a trail, change the vehicle settings for more traction, improve your […]
The Ford Maverick has received a refresh—and a new alter ego to go with it. Scheduled to hit the roads in early 2025, the Maverick Lobo aims to revitalize the classic “street truck” for the modern enthusiast. This variation on the 2025 Ford Maverick promises high performance and urban style from the country’s most popular […]
The news came quietly on September 12, 2024, with a simple two-paragraph statement: Genesis and Hyundai Motorsport would be joining LMDh, part of the premier endurance racing class that competes in the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA) SportsCar Championship and the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) World Endurance Championship (WEC). Although they didn’t offer any […]
