    Top 5 Features Trucks Need to Bring Back

    Fleet sales mean nothing to individual buyers. If anything, that's probably the only reason why an individual can still buy a base vehicle.

    Top 5 Features Trucks Need to Bring Back

    You would think if simplicity were so desired, then no one would be buying anything above the basic truck models but that doesn't appear to be the case. Entry level is far from the most popular.

    What used truck buying research do you do?

    When I buy used, I just give it an overall conditional inspection based on price. I'd rather see older tires because that shows even or uneven wear. New tires are suspect. I don't care for most mods because they are rarely done well and screw up factory parts installing them. If they are asking...

    How automakers calculate GVWR and curb weight

    You should do an article/video to sort through this. Pointing out specifically how each brand accounts for the weight of people. So, according to the above, Ford adds 750lbs to its curb weight just for people? That mean a single 250lb driver can add 500lbs of payload without exceeding GVWR...

    GM, Allison Renew Brand Partnership: 2026 GM HD Trucks with Allison Badging Returns

    lol....yep. So many are always betting on every rumor to come true hoping to cash in if they hit the lotto. Of course, if you try to call them on it they say their video helped change the minds of those involved. It's a win-win!

    Well, that's just damn goofy. I agree, should be able to plug it in at any temp honestly.

    Modern Truck Tailgates Compared: Useful Innovation or Just a Gimmick?

    I thought they were gimmicky until I used the Ram splitter. Amazing how much easier it is to get right up to the bed and not have to lean over the tailgate. Same with the way the GM has the small door is nice for long lumber as well as a step. The rest of the crap like embedded speakers or using...

    Is early transfer case replacement a sign of an overworked engine?

    Endless reasons why it crapped out but usually not from towing. TheDo114, posts a good reason for sure. Me? I'd be more suspicious of those miles being right considering the age and the transfer going bad. The rest of it better be in the shape of 141K mile truck.

    GM Confirms New 2027 Chevy Silverado 1500, 2027 GMC Sierra 1500 Coming – What to Expect

    Makes sense to do the V8s just like Ram did the I6, an SO and an HO. This will be where someone says they should make a simple V8 with no auto shut-off, no MDS, no turbo, etc. And then one with all the goodies. The problem is, the work V8 will never sell, and it'll die like the reg cab and...

    For a simple logo? Seems to be a bit much. Great to put on T-shirts and hats though!

    Turbocharged, Four-Cylinder New Truck Sales Are On Fire! Is the Internet Wrong On These Trucks?

    Which the Fords have already exceeded 10 years. I don't know, the way some of these engines are dropping, I'd be glad to see any cylinder count reach 10 years regardless of turbo or not.

    GM 6.2L V8 Engine Issues Worsen: Post Remedy Engine Failures Lead to ODI Recall Query

    Sure, but how many failed after receiving a whole new engine? The crappy part for GM is if the new oil viscosity doesn't "fix" enough of them, that's a whole lot of new engines.....

    Ram Quality Problems Explained by CEO and Self-Inflicted Mistake, Why the 100k Mile Warranty Matters

    It makes even more sense if what Tim says about brand loyalty. If those new Ram owners switch loyalty so their next truck will also be Ram that's even better.

    Ram Digital Key Still Not Working 2 Years After Debut? Company Promises Fix Coming, Soon?

    Well this seems to be moving forward, unlike their other tech promise, the 2KW invertor. I see that has completely dropped off their website. Too bad, that would have been something actually useful.

    Nissan is totaled

    Well that just sucks. Hard to tell but it doesn't look like the damage went as far as the cab. Could be fixable.

    2027 Ram Power Wagon Cummins Diesel Arrives, Finally Fixes Flaw with DIY Winch

    Exactly. HDs with crew cabs and long beds do not make the best off roaders.

    2027 Ram Power Wagon Cummins Diesel Arrives, Finally Fixes Flaw with DIY Winch

    To me it seems like a very silly combo but I'm sure they'll sell some. Mostly to mall-crawlers.
