In September, I’m heading to Automechanika Frankfurt 2026 in Germany to investigate how software, artificial intelligence and connected technology will change the way trucks are maintained and repaired. This will be my first time attending Automechanika Frankfurt, one of the largest automotive...

Hot Honey is easier on the eyes than other colors IMO.

I have to say this surprised me when I put this together. Often, I'm so busy reporting the news or making it that I don't notice how trucks stack up. The real struggle for me is going to be from a business perspective. The 2022 Tundra was a massive success in that regard; however, it was a FULL...

Toyota has added the missing TRD Pro details to its earlier 2027 Tundra and Sequoia announcements. Yes, the headline is a new exterior color. Tundra, Sequoia, and Tacoma TRD Pro models get a shade called Honeycomb, while the 4Runner receives a slightly different version called Hot Honey...

The 2027 Toyota Tundra hybrid vs. 2027 Chevy Silverado 1500 comparison has become more than an academic exercise for me. I am thinking about buying one of these trucks. I have owned previous versions of both. I bought a third-generation 2022 Tundra with the twin-turbocharged V6, and I previously...

Congrats!

Story of my work life. LOL

Sucks getting mixed messages. Unfortunately, that's life at times. Got bumped or somebody didn't get the memo.

How do you mean? Why does reporting on the news automatically make someone a shill?

What's the update?

It It is odd that it isn't on the HD trucks. I was thinking about this on our camping trip this weekend.

For Jeep’s largest vehicle, the HEMI V8 is gone, but after a heavily loaded family trip from Manhattan to upstate New York, we are convinced the brand made the right call. I recently borrowed a 2026 Jeep Grand Wagoneer Limited Altitude 4X4 for a family trip that began in Manhattan and ended at a...

That I don't know. The only thing I know is the crew cab, short bed is THE most popular configuration. Automakers sell the high majority of truck sales with this configuration. Could just be a supply/demand issue.

The 2027 Toyota Tundra changes include updated styling, a new Trailhunter package, a standard 14-inch multimedia screen, a built-in drive recorder, Toyota Safety Sense 4.0 and, perhaps most importantly, an available 2.4-kW inverter for i-FORCE MAX trucks. Yes, Toyota appears to have been...

That's a pretty cool thing for the dealer to do! Now, how many times did you watch that video? Be honest. LOL.

I think it is because they haven't redone the HDs for real since 2019. The HD trucks don't have the computer hardware or software for Super Cruise to work.

Combing through reliability information from Consumer Reports, combined with our reporting on recalls and known problems, we can present a worst-to-first look at heavy-duty pickup truck reliability for the 2026 model year. Consumer Reports bases its predicted reliability findings on owner...

Shit!

After about a year and 16,000 miles behind the wheel of my 2025 Ram 1500 RHO, it was time for the truck to head down the road and make room for something new. That’s part of running an automotive review business. But before I traded it in, I spent some time thinking about what stood out after...

During the launch of the new Cummins 6.7-liter turbo diesel engine, I sat down with Doug Killian, Stellantis Chief Vehicle Synthesis Manager, to walk through the engineering changes. While the new engine features improvements to fuel delivery, serviceability and refinement, one question quickly...
