When it comes to pickup trucks, Ford and Chevrolet are often at the top of drivers’ lists. Both manufacturers have been producing cars that Americans love for over 100 years, so they know a thing or two about what consumers want out of the various models they offer. They’re constantly upgrading beloved old models, keeping […]
Competition fuels the automotive industry, pushing automakers to one-up one another to deliver bigger and better models that satisfy the needs of drivers and exceed their expectations. This competition, albeit fierce, is healthy because it constantly propels the industry forward. For example, America’s beloved pickup truck continues to improve as Ram, Chevy, and Ford work […]
Shopping for a new vehicle requires that the buyer make all sorts of decisions. Of course, as a driver in the market for a new ride, you will look into certain aspects of the vehicle you want to own, including powertrain, safety features, and fuel economy. However, if you are in the market for a […]
Some of the best vehicles to put through the most punishment that mother nature has to offer are off-road vehicles. They’re designed with a completely different anatomy than the typical vehicle. They’re built with extra toughness, reinforced frames, stiffer suspension, and transfer cases to push as much torque as possible through each and every wheel. […]
If you’ve seen any of the video reveals of the Ranger Raptor for the European release, it’s like watching an adventure thriller with the truck as the star of the show. Movie-style stunts take place, with the Raptor making jumps off still-airborne planes, racing dirt bikes in multi-tier mines, and dashing beneath dangerous equipment with […]
Classic trucks are more than shiny vehicles you hide in your garage until it’s time to drive them to a car show. When using the term “classic,” it’s just a fancy word for used trucks that have been well-maintained so that they still look nice and run well even though they’re old. Plenty of people […]
A game of tag is afoot in the burgeoning midsize pickup category, and Ford is it. Nissan’s recent release of the redesigned Frontier puts Ford on the hot seat to deliver on its next-generation Ranger, but does it have the goods? The 2022 Nissan Frontier vs 2022 Ford Ranger presents a gripping plot line for […]
We’ve all seen the commercials pitting the 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 vs 2022 Ford F-150. Pickup trucks are now apparently capable of pulling multiple times their weight, and then some. Do you want a truck that can pull the supports out from an overpass? Do you want a pickup that can tug-of-war with an 18-wheeler? […]
Did you ever play with Hot Wheels as a child? Tinkering around with a toy truck is the best way to describe how it feels when you step out of the Ram TRX and into any other full-size truck in the segment. It’s hard, almost painful, to do, and it’s why so many drivers keep […]
Just because someone says they’re into off-roading doesn’t mean they’re into every kind of off-road activity that the great outdoors has to offer. Likewise, some people are really heavy into the more challenging aspects of off-road culture; some people are only interested in hill climbs, others are only down with dirt trails, and maybe a […]
If you’re a farmer, you’re probably aware there’s a big difference between the Silverado 1500 and 3500 models. The 3500 has been the ideal farm truck for years, offering the highest tow capacity and more bed space than any other Chevy truck. That said, you’ll notice that the 2022 Silverado 3500 model has more in […]
No matter the sport, teams are always striving to improve so they can make it to the playoffs. They may change strategies or tactics to increase their chances of winning a championship trophy (or ring, cup, etc.). This measure of success also applies to the automotive industry, where manufacturers are always competing to improve their […]
John Lennon once asked, “Say you want a revolution? Well, you know, we all want to change the world.” Chevrolet seems to be staking a claim to an electric vehicle (EV) rEVolution with the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV. The Silverado EV is Chevy’s entry into the growing electric pickup truck market, challenging the Ford F-150 […]
There are infinite reasons why one might want to take a pickup truck off-road. From muddy job sites and unbuilt roads to the pure thrill of twisting through the trails without a care in the world, you may have very practical or very personal reasons for jumping off the pavement. And in one of the […]
We have a predisposition when it comes to the term “used.” Often, the term is associated with objects that have outlived their usefulness or novelty. This outlook speaks to the conditioning that anything new or recent is best or at still possesses a novelty that hasn’t yet lost its shine. This is most apparent when […]
Pretty much every truck these days claims to be the toughest around, able to power through tasks and take on the most difficult workday like it’s nothing. One truck is even branded around it, showcasing that it’s Built Ford Tough, but of course, who can blame Ford when it’s referring to the F-150? When it […]
How did it take until 2022 for General Motors to finally offer Chevy’s flagship vehicle with their flagship off-road performance package?

Choosing between a good thing and a great thing can be tough, especially in a world with so much variety. It’s hard to know where to even start sometimes, particularly in the ever-growing truck market. With so many great models out there, where to begin?

When most drivers think of off-roading, they picture something like a Jeep Wrangler or an ATV. This is a valid association, but there’s more to the off-road world than just Jeeps and Polaris RZRs. While these off-road prowlers are awesome, there are some impressive trail-capable trucks out there that are worth trying. One of those […]
Buying a used truck can be risky business, especially when you plan on using the truck for performance-related activities, off-road events, or enthusiast purposes.
