The options to customize and create a truck that fits you are endless. Tailoring a new vehicle to meet your lifestyle is more popular than ever. No company knows this more than Ford.

To truck-owners, aesthetics and comfort features are just icing on the cake. What’s important is reliability, durability, and power.

Long has conflict simmered in the land of the midsize truck.

It’s an exciting time to be buying a pickup. Capabilities have never been so impressive, and trucks just seem to be getting better and better. While full-size and heavy-duty pickups tend to get a lot of the press attention, the value of a good midsize pickup should not go without notice. Today I’d like to […]
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.

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.

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 […]

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.

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.

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.).

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.
