Who said extended cab trucks can’t haul the mail? Here’s proof that with enough boost and traction, even a 5000-pound led sled can take names. This murdered-out monster is said to be making 1100hp at the wheels thanks to an iron block 408 being force fed by a single 83mm turbo. It’s good for bottom […] More »

Spring will bring warmer weather and Easter candy, but it will also bring potholes.  You can blame our crazy winter weather for those.  The moisture in the cracks in the pavement goes from frozen to thawed multiple times, causing the road surface to expand and contract.  Driving over it causes it to weaken even more […] More »

Look out now! The ’99+ Chevrolet truck world record has just been set. According to 1320Video, this 427CI powered Silverado with its 114mm turbo is the baddest ’99+ Chevy truck in the land! It’s owned by Rigo Trevino and is claimed to produce 1700HP. Apparently he held the previous record in the 8.40s but turned […] More »

Ah… The perfect day.  That beautiful girl at the bank gives you her number, traffic on the way home is nonexistent and your buddy buys the next round of beers. Chevrolet is having the car maker equivalent of such a string of events, and it started with last year’s Stingray.  The seventh-generation Corvette has been […] More »

OK, so we don’t need all the carbon fiber or the entire 200-pound weight savings, but shave 100-pounds, keep the Camaro Z/28 carbon ceramic brakes, 19-inch wheels, flat-bottom steering wheel and of course the 420hp and 460 lb-ft 6.2-liter V8 and regular cab […] More »

Lets be honest here, a truck is anything but light or aerodynamic, so when we see a fast example it’s deserving of respect. Unlike Corvette owners that have 3000-pound rockets with slippery body lines, truck owners overcome the laws of physics with pure determination and of course, plenty of horsepower. Take for example this wicked […] More »

There’s something to be said for a fast pickup. They’re inherently unaerodynamic, heavy and severely traction limited–if you have a fast pickup, it’s against all odds. I might be biased because I own an ’03 Silverado regular cab step side (RCSS or RCSB), but a fast pickup is just plain bada$$–especially when it’s packing 1150 […] More »
