Trucks : Car News And Reviews

We’ve spent a little time behind the wheel of the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 here, and it’s a pretty capable off-road truck. But one thing I’ve not really cared for since it first broke cover back in 2017 is the way its front end looks.

It hasn’t been all that long since Nissan revamped its TITAN pickup truck. The second-generation, full-size pickup debuted for the 2016 model year. But with tough competition from the likes of Ram and GMC, Nissan decided to go back to the drawing board and up their game for the 2020 model year.

The current lineup of Ram trucks are some of the best looking, most comfortable, and versatile pickups on the market. For the 2020 model year, there are two new cosmetic packages for those looking for a more sporty look.

If you like to off-road after dark, you need a good LED light bar. There are plenty of aftermarket options out there, and a couple of truck makers even offer them as a factory option. But I can say with a high degree of certainty that none of them are as bright as the one that rctestflight installed on a truck.

While I’ve driven lots of pickup trucks over the years, I actually don’t have a ton of experience towing things behind them. Thanks to my recent experience driving the new 2020 GMC Sierra HD, I feel much more confident pulling a trailer behind a truck.

Ford has already told us that it’s serious about getting into electric vehicles, and is even planning on building an all-electric version of its popular F-150 pickup truck. Now, Ford is showing off a prototype of its electric F-150 by putting it to the test in a towing challenge.

Large, heavy-duty pickup trucks are tools that can be used to tow the heaviest of things. The new Silverado, for example, can tow up to 35,500 pounds when properly equipped in HD form. Does that mean that you need one of these heavy-duty tech wonders to tow your boat or camper?

Those looking for a Jeep pickup truck now have the Gladiator as an option straight off the production line. But Jeep’s official pickup truck doesn’t have six-wheel drive, nor does it have a Hellcat engine. If you want those things, you’ll want to check out this auction.

We’ve known for a while that Tesla was working on its own electric pickup truck. But the company has a long history of overpromising and slow times to market, so I wouldn’t expect to see a production Tesla pickup for a while.

Ram has announced that its third-gen EcoDiesel 3.0L V6 engine will debut in Q4 2019. The engine will be available in all Ram 1500 models, meaning that Ram Rebel buyers can get diesel power for the first time.

Before we get too far into this review, a little transparency first. For the last year, I’ve been writing my second book – about the history of the Ford F-Series pickup. So when I got the 2019 version of America’s best-selling vehicle to drive, I was excited.

The tuning experts at Hennessey Performance have unveiled what it calls the ultimate Gladiator, and it sure seems like an accurate description. The 2020 Hennessey Maximus 1000 is a 2020 Jeep Gladiator with the puny V6 pulled out, and a 6.2L Supercharged Hellcat V8 put inside.

Dynatrac is one of the biggest names in the axle and drivetrain world, and it has teamed up with a conversion specialist called America’s Most Wanted 4×4, a company specializing in Hemi conversions for Jeeps. The worked together to put a new Jeep Gladiator under the knife for some extreme surgery.

Truck buyers know the trouble with aluminum or steel beds, and that trouble is when you do truck stuff they show dents and scratches, and the steel ones can even rust. This leads to lots of spray-in bed liners.

Plenty of Jeep Wrangler owners and Gladiator hopefuls want to know why Jeep doesn’t offer the Hemi V8 or the blown Hellcat V8 in their off-road. It turns out the V8 fits like a glove, and that is the problem.
