2017 Toyota Tacoma Review
Apr 27, 2020
Ever the sales leader in the midsize segment, the Tacoma trades heavily on Toyota's well-deserved reputation for building small trucks with superior off-highway capability and rugged dependability. Able to do much more than haul building materials from the home improvement store (which it does quite well), the Tacoma gives off an off-road lifestyle vibe that it can back up with actual performance.

2017 Lexus GS 350 Review
Apr 20, 2020
The current generation of the GS 350 first hit the market as a 2013 model, and after a full year in one, we came away mighty impressed by its well-appointed and accommodating interior, willing powertrain, sure handling and smooth ride. But Lexus did not rest on its laurels.

2017 Honda Ridgeline Review
Apr 14, 2020
In the context of pickup trucks, the redesigned 2017 Honda Ridgeline offers unheard-of levels of ride smoothness, handling sophistication and overall comfort. In fact, it gives away very little to top-rated family SUVs.

Ram fully redesigned its full-size pickup truck a year ago, and this year the capable 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 engine is being added back into the 2020 Ram 1500 lineup.

2020 Toyota Tacoma First Drive
Jul 23, 2019
The 2020 Toyota Tacoma gains a new 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat, a new touchscreen audio system that supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, recalibrated transmission shift calibration, and more. The result is a truck that's still great off-road but much more livable day in and day out.

2020 Toyota 4Runner First Drive
Jul 23, 2019
Sales of the Toyota 4Runner have been increasing steadily over the last several years, and the 2020 Toyota 4Runner demonstrates that there's more life in this decade-old platform. New this year are an enlarged touchscreen audio system that offers the latest smartphone support and the Toyota Safety Sense suite of active safety gear.

2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD First Drive
Jun 24, 2019
We were surprised by how much we liked the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD when we first saw it. We're even bigger fans now that we've driven one, pulled some trailers and sampled its unique towing and hauling features.

2020 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD First Drive
Jun 24, 2019
We were shocked by the massive tow ratings Chevy was claiming for the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD when it announced it. But we're no longer doubters now that we've taken a closer look and pulled a trailer with one.

2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 First Drive
Jun 22, 2019
The 2020 Silverado 1500 diesel finally completes the set. Later this year, all Big Three automakers will offer diesel engine options for their volume-selling trucks. Which one would you choose?

Jun 18, 2019
The 2020 Ford Explorer may not look all that different, but there are many important changes beneath the skin of this fully redesigned three-row family SUV.
