RAM TRUCK DOWN UNDER

SNOOPY HAS A BIRTHDAY
Editor Matthew Scott recently had a birthday, and straight off the bat we’re not going to mention his age out of respect (okay he is 98 years old… and a damn good advocate for skin moisturiser). Anyway, as Matt…
WHEN 4×4 JUST ISN’T ENOUGH: THE 6X6
When a 4×4 just can’t get the job done, maybe you should have a look at a 6×6. Below are a few examples of proper 6×6 vehicles, where all 6 wheels are powered. Easily the most famous 6×6 of modern times…
WHY YOU NEED A VINTAGE 4X4

2017 Ford Raptor First Look
It’s pretty hard to not like the Ford Raptor. It’s part ute, part desert racer, and part hardcore four-wheel drive. It features aggressive 35-inch tyres, racing suspension, and massive fenders to keep it all under wraps. Even though it was…
