Corvair “Rampside” Was The Most Radical Pickup GM Ever Made

From our 2000s perspective, it’s hard to think back to realize how radical Chevy’s Corvair Rampside pickup really was. In many ways, it was more of a shift in pickup design than the Tesla Cybertruck is seen as today. But, everything about the Corvair pickup was a departure. From its rear-engine location to the cab-forward …
2020 Roush Ford F-150

How Does This Upgraded Ford F-150 Compare to the Ford Raptor?

Ford F-150 builds and modifications run across an entire spectrum. Some are made for off-roading, with Ford’s own F-150 Raptor and Hennessey’s VelociRaptor 6×6 filling the roles of Baja racers. Others, like the Harley-Davidson edition, are built more for style. Roush Performance has provided parts and tuning for both ends. The tuner can supercharge the …

VW Atlas Steps Up Big In Size, Space, and Seating

If you think VW can’t go big, think again. The 2020 VW Atlas SUV is large-five inches wider than a Toyota Highlander, and almost 200-inches long. You know an SUV this big has a third row, even if this one seems a bit cramped. When the seats are folded down you gain almost 100 cubic …
2021 Bronco R Prototype Baja 1000 racing through desert sand

Now You Can Build Your Own Ford Bronco (And Ranger) R

Although the Ford Bronco R didn’t win the Baja 1000, it still gave a heck of a performance. Competing with the likes of Honda’s Unlimited Ridgeline, the Bronco R was also an early look at the production SUV. Obviously, as a Trophy Truck, the Bronco R doesn’t share a lot with the street Bronco. And …

This Acura SLX SUV Is a Remix of a Great Throwback

The 90s brought legends from Japan into the US, such as the iconic Acura Integra Type R and NSX. But Acura in the 90s was also making its first foray into selling SUVs. Although the company’s current success owes much to SUVs like the RDX—reliable and more American-made than the F-150—it wasn’t always this way. …
Tesla Cybertruck with trailer

Cybertruck Towing Issues Are an EV Problem, Not a Tesla Problem

Electric pickups aren’t competing with ICE pickups solely on range, but on towing, too. Tesla appeared to demonstrate that there’s nothing to worry about when the Cybertruck towed that F-150 uphill. There’s also an electric F-150 out with a towing capacity of 18,000 lbs. However, although Tesla claims the tri-motor Cybertruck will tow up to …

Honda Ridgeline Baja Race Truck

This 550-HP Honda Ridgeline Is a Baja Blast

Trucks can race, too. Some, like Ken Block, modify trucks for drifting or hill-climbing. Others, like the man behind the V8 Mini pickup, for drag-racing. But one of the premier truck-racing scenes is Baja. There, Trophy Trucks like the Bronco R and SCG Baja Boot battle rocks, sand, heat, and time to finish. And there’s …
2008 Toyota Tundra TRD Supercharged SEMA build

This Toyota Tundra Proves TRD Superchargers Need to Come Back

The Toyota Tundra is known for many things: reliability, American production, and value retention. However, performance doesn’t really make the list. Although the next-gen truck promises hybrid power and a twin-turbo V6, the current 5.7-liter V8 isn’t terribly fuel-efficient or powerful. The Tundra didn’t even make our list of full-size trucks with high payloads. There …
