Can you find a truck at your local Honda dealer? Depends on your definition. For some, body-on-frame construction is what separates the trucks from the cars. But if you’re not a purist, you might be willing to admit that for most practical purposes, it’s the presence of an open cargo bed that defines the category. […]
Who would want to drive on a nice, paved road when you could be carving through muddy ruts, bouncing in your seat, and learning the meaning of “center of gravity” first-hand?

Drivers are flocking to off-road models like never before, but there can be a wide gulf between legitimate offerings and those simply looking to capitalize on the trend.

Overlanding is becoming increasingly popular amongst people who want to learn self-reliance and experience a more minimalist and intimate way to explore the vast and beautiful lands of this country.

The moment we have all been waiting for is here: after 15 years on the market, the venerable Toyota 4Runner has finally received a full redesign.
