Pickup Lifestyle

More About the Pickup Lifestyle Driver

The Truck Guy (or Girl) treats the pickup as a lifestyle statement, a daily driver, and a mobile basecamp all at once. The Ford F-150 is America's best-selling vehicle for a reason: it does everything well and looks good doing it, whether you're in an XLT work trim or a Platinum luxury spec. The Ram 1500 is the comfort king with its coil-spring rear suspension and a cabin that rivals luxury sedans.

The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Trail Boss adds off-road attitude with a factory lift and skid plates, while the GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate brings premium materials and a MultiPro tailgate that transforms into a workstation. The Toyota Tacoma is the mid-size icon - TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro trims own the overlanding world. The Ford Ranger returned with a turbocharged engine and a size that's perfect for those who remember when full-size trucks were this big.

The Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 and its Bison variant prove that mid-size trucks can be just as capable and way more maneuverable. Tailgate down, cold drink, sunset view - that's truck life.
