    Bought a used 23 F-150

    I am 5'6" so I get what you are saying. Loading my lawnmower in the bed of my Gladiator Rubicon when it needs service is not too far from a Mr. Bean episode.

    6.8 reliability

    Looking forward to your video with Getty's Garage. I am interested in finding out more about the F250 reliability with the 6.8 gas V8.

    Bought a used 23 F-150

    After a few days of ownership, what is the one thing the F150 does really well compared to the RHO?

    Compensation

    The dealership provided me with a loaner during the 3 weeks it took to replace the 6.2 engine in my 2021 Silverado 1500 RST. That was back in November 2022. It was an Equinox. I was able to go to work that way.

    Factory Specs Gladiator Rubicon Off-Road

    This past weekend, I went off-roading in the mountains of Western Massachussetts. This was my first serious excursion after two and a half years of ownership and I find myself with renewed respect for the truck. We were riding over sections of the path covered with jagged stones, having at times...

    Rear drum brakes

    I was listening to the Car Care Nut channel. They were detailing a VW Buzz, and I was surprised to hear the vehicle has rear drum brakes. I had a 2011 Jetta with that set up for 10 years and drove it to 100k miles before trading it in. I had to replace the rear brakes once in that time period...

    Off-Roading with the Ridgeline TrailSport

    I live on the east coast and go occasionally through the woods, over a hill in Massachussetts. Some steep portions, some ruts, some deep puddles.

    Off-Roading with the Ridgeline TrailSport

    Has anyone been off-roading with the Honda Ridgeline TrailSport? How did it go in terms of ground clearance, transmission temperature and what kind of terrain was it? Thank you.

    Rock Creek trim at Nissan

    That is the question. Hopefully not, Nissan has a rich history of vehicles that are part of the automotive history.

    Rock Creek trim at Nissan

    Nissan needs something. For too long, the company was showing interesting concepts, but those were not necessarily followed by an actual product on the market. Now - and gradually - Nissan is popping its head up and revealing a couple of models in an off-road trim. Off-road trims are in, sedans...

    Hyundai Santa Cruz in Massachusetts

    I just spend an overnight stay in the Berkshire mountains in Massachusetts and noticed how many more Santa Cruz pickups I saw there, compared to my home state of New Jersey. From Friday night to Saturday morning for example, I saw five different ones in the town of Lenox.

    Andrei's "new" (to him) truck

    It was surprising to see he went for a 2019 vehicle. Especially since he said he wanted to own new trucks and test them long term, when he bought the Colorado. He did say in this video that he wanted to own a V8 while there were still a few around. Of course the price is a determining factor and...

    Andrei's "new" (to him) truck

    Tim is waiting for his RHO, I know we can't wait to see him drive it and report. Andrei / TFL just traded in his 2023 Colorado Trail Boss for a 2019 Tundra TRD. Dave and Kelly / All Terrain Nation recently acquired a Bronco Raptor. Plenty of potential updates to look forward to.

    New Clutch Plate Update

    If you are used to driving a minivan, the main issue will be the same: the length. You probably noticed, a scratched minivan is usually hit on the side, in the second half of the vehicle. That's because the driver cut too much while turning. All I keep reminding myself is to wait an extra moment...
