Jeep is getting serious about electrification, and it now vows to offer an electrified—read: hybridized—version of every model by 2022.

When you’re young, being different than everyone else can make day-to-day life difficult. Being a child or young adult that thinks alternatively than the rest of the pack or does things outside of the ‘norm’ will tend to make you stand out in others views. Being different in the automotive scene results in a completely

The Truck Show Podcast, hosted by Sean Holman and Jay “Lightning” Tilles, aired its first episode on March 8, 2018. The all-trucks podcast has gained great momentum in its almost two years of existence, with over 100 episodes available for download.

Enthusiasts acted shocked when Ford pulled the plug on the Ranger after it was on the market just shy of three decades.

We proudly gave our Billet Piston award to the all-new 2019 Ram 1500 lineup last year, with credit going to the truck’s excellent interior, strong work ethic, and refined road manners. And a great deal of our appreciation for that truck came from the fact that Ram sent us a Rebel to play with alongside

The competent-but-polarizing 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 wasn’t the runaway critical success GM wanted it to be, so we weren’t surprised the company pulled out all the stops when introducing the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD. The larger Silverado variant comes with a long list of features truck customers will likely appreciate, including an all-new

It’s no secret that when we review trucks, the manufacturers most often will send the top-of-the-line, fully outfitted, most expensive vehicle they can.

It’s no secret we’re fans of GMC pickups. In fact, up until now, GMC has been the only repeat winner of our coveted Pickup Truck of the Year award (2016 and 2018). So with the all-new Sierras (1500 in 2019 and 2500/3500 in 2020), we had high hopes for delivering a third Billet Piston trophy.
