    Least reliable 2026 full-size trucks on the market today

    Definitely brand loyalty plays a role in people's perceptions. I remember Toyota telling me they brought in some owners of other brands to interview about why they liked their trucks. One lady said, "My Dodge is the most reliable truck I've ever had! It has only needed three transmissions."...

    Is the GM 6.2L still a bad engine?

    This reminds me of a Facebook post I saw while traveling through the various airports last week. An owner was praising his GM 10-speed transmission and others hopped on to share how they love theirs as well. I was going to share it to our page as a "see they aren't all bad," but figured it...

    I went off three days ago.

    Well then. LOL Joel and I have been friends for years and we, like most friends and colleagues, disagree at times. In this case, I tend to disagree with many things. The Ridgeline is a fine SUV with a bed. Some people really like it and others wouldn't be caught dead in one. And yes, I'm so...

    Federal Judge Denies Motion to Split GM Lifter Lawsuit over AFM/DFM, Keeping Silverado and Sierra V8 Class Action Intact

    Next-Gen 2027 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Spotted – Exterior, Interior, Engines

    I agree about the night pics. I've always found it odd that first drive events never include a section of driving at night.

    Have they lost their minds? Also, did he not realize the rear axle hop was due to having the rear lockers on? Am I crazy or is this just way too out there? https://www.motortrend.com/reviews/comparison-test-2026-chevrolet-silverado-ev-trail-boss-vs-ram-2500-power-wagon

    GM 6.2 crank/rod problems fixed?

    It is interesting for me to read all the comments on the heavier weight oil. I have some fans who, are like you, think it is a joke. Others think it should have been a heavier weight oil all the time. And then others who want 5w30 instead.
