    Ram TRX returns? We’ll likely know June 8

    RAM had issue with Kuniskis, they did some good things but some head scratchers as well. He only left a year ago or so, I think he was technically gone for less than 6 months. So the issues that got them into this mess was on his plate and watch. It's easy to step away, talk a lot of s*** and...

    New 2025 full-size SUVs Compared: Tahoe, Expedition, Armada and more!

    What about a plan of attack laid out so when you get the first vehicle, say the new Tahoe you have 7-10 items that you take a meaningful look at for future comparisons. This is alongside your normal 5 likes/dislikes and general impressions. Then when you get the new Expedition, same thing...

    New engine and vehicle reliability?

    You're exactly right. I would also point to the people who keep their vehicles for a long time. I put over 200k on my last truck (2009 Tacoma) but I do only plan on going 125ish on this truck because my plan all along was to get into a 3/4 ton which I will keep for a loooong time.

    New engine and vehicle reliability?

    I've been seeing lots of articles from everywhere talking about the GM lifter issues and their new recall on the 6.2's which isn't lifter related. The HEMI issues which like GM were a bit all over the place including lifters. Then Ford is recall city with issues in both the 3.5 and 5.0. Toyota...

    New 2025 full-size SUVs Compared: Tahoe, Expedition, Armada and more!

    I enjoy the video breakdowns from the manufacturers website if were talking pricing, options and general ideas but it's hurt by not having the vehicles on hand. Or, cutting to clips from when you did have the vehicles on hand. There's just something powerful about having 2 next to each other...

    Luckily I think the seats are already figured out for the next gen.

    Ram TRX returns? We’ll likely know June 8

    Kuniskis says a lot of things, not even counting the ones he's deleted. I'm curious about what's coming but I'll wait and see before garnering any excitement.

    GM Tonawanda plant gets $888 Million investment for next-gen V-8s

    I'm just not sold that the possible minor benefit to MPG in city is worth the trade-offs.

    GM Tonawanda plant gets $888 Million investment for next-gen V-8s

    Excited to see what the next generation of V8s can do from GM. I don't think the turbo engines provide much of a benefit, especially in efficiency. Under load they're worse. I'm not anti-turbo, I own an ecoboost, but I also don't really see the point. The ecoboost is quick but it doesn't feel...

    2026 GMC Hummer EV updates: Quicker plus King Crab mode

    I don't think they expect to sell very many of these and if I look at it as a prototype that someone actually built, it's pretty cool. It's an off roader that won't see much time off the pavement for the average owner. I guess that's no different than a track based car that has never been to the...

    Ford recalls 1.1 million vehicles: rearview camera software glitch

    I can only assume CR doesn't care much about recalls in their reliability rankings. Waiting for parts, time in the shop, lack of loaners... all massive headaches.

    Silverado Seat Comfort

    I just spent another 8 hours in mine Sunday. Wife and I both find it pretty comfortable.

    The learning curve of podcasting.

    I feel like I would need a tool to help me remember my topics. For me, that would probably be a visual PPT with some bullet points. I'm not reading from it but it would trigger my memory and ensure I hit the points I wanted to make. Good job on starting, let me know when it's live.

    Ending EV tax credit is risky business and national security threat

    That data isn't households, it's individuals. However, no. I don't consider an individual making 100k wealthy but they're significantly better off than the majority. The average individual income in the US is 63k. (lots of extreme wealth pulling that number up) Household is somewhere around 80k...

    Utility trailer

    That's a great find, I want one about that size with removeable sides really bad. I've almost pulled the trigger on new a few times but keep waiting to find a used one. I'm jealous! I'm hoping for something like this but bigger like yours:

    Ending EV tax credit is risky business and national security threat

    The EV tax credit is and always has been a tax break for the wealthy. In my state, Washington, 75% of the tax breaks go to the top 25% of wealthiest zip codes. Nationwide 78% of EV tax credits went towards individuals earning over 100k annually. EVs haven't caught on because the early adopters...

    Tailgate Mountain Bike pad

    I like Thule and Yakima. Yakima has the best latch access and Thule is really big and offers a lot of protection. They're expensive though. I've heard good things about RaceFace but never used them.
