| 6/19/26 | The Safest 2026 Pickup Truck Is Not What You Think | Send us Fan Mail Only two 2026 pickup trucks earned IIHS safety awards this year, and the top winner is probably not the truck most traditional buyers expected. The Tesla Cybertruck earned the only Top Safety Pick+ award, while the Toyota Tundra was the only pickup to earn Top Safety Pick. In this week’s Pickup Truck Talk news recap, Cory breaks down the latest IIHS truck safety results, where Ford, Chevy and Ram landed, and why the newest testing standards made the list so short. Also in the... | 20m 18s | ||||||
| 6/12/26 | Why Truck Buyers Are Still Arguing About Hemi vs Hurricane 2 Years Later | Truck News Recap | Send us Fan Mail This week on Truck News Recap, Tim discusses the biggest traffic day in Pickup Truck Talk history and the surprising story behind it. A two-year-old interview with the chief engineer of the Ram Hurricane inline-six engine exploded online, reigniting the debate over whether Ram made the right decision replacing the legendary Hemi V8. Why are truck buyers still arguing about Hemi versus Hurricane? Was Ram right to move forward with turbocharged six-cylinder power? Or did custom... | 13m 44s | ||||||
| 6/5/26 | What Ford Didn't Tell You About Bronco Filson | Send us Fan Mail The 2027 Ford Bronco Filson looks like a premium outdoor collaboration on the surface, but the bigger story may be what Ford did not say. Ford kept calling this new Bronco “premium,” not “luxury,” and that word choice could matter if the rumors about a future Lincoln off-roader based on the Bronco platform turn out to be true. In this week’s Pickup Truck Talk news recap, Cory breaks down the new Bronco Filson after spending time with Ford and Filson in the Pacific Northwest. ... | 12m 56s | ||||||
| 6/4/26 | The Truth About Nissan Frontier Reliability (Plus New Toyota Tundra News) | Send us Fan Mail This week on Truck News Recap, we're diving into the biggest known problems reported by Nissan Frontier owners from the 2023-2026 model years. From transmission complaints and electrical glitches to recalls and owner concerns, here's what buyers need to know before purchasing a Nissan Frontier. Plus, Toyota has released new information about the Tundra engine replacement program, including details on when the updated main bearing entered production. We'll break down what th... | 16m 50s | ||||||
| 6/2/26 | The Real Reason Toyota Tundra Engines Are Failing | Send us Fan Mail Toyota has expanded its twin-turbo V6 engine recall again, and this time we finally have a better idea why these engines are failing. According to a newly filed NHTSA report, Toyota spent months tearing down engines, analyzing failed components, and conducting laboratory testing. The investigation led engineers to one component in particular: the #1 main bearing. The company says machining debris, often called "swarf" in the manufacturing industry, may not have been fully rem... | 14m 04s | ||||||
| 5/22/26 | Ram Gave The Rumble Bee A “Pure” HEMI, But There’s A Catch | Send us Fan Mail The 2027 Ram 1500 Rumble Bee brings HEMI power back in a big way, but the most interesting detail may be what Ram removed, and what it kept. The new Rumble Bee 5.7L HEMI drops eTorque and auto start/stop, yet still uses MDS cylinder deactivation to help with fuel economy during light-load driving. In this week’s Pickup Truck Talk news recap, Cory breaks down why Ram made that choice, what it means for enthusiasts, how the Rumble Bee differs from regular 2027 HEMI-powered Ram... | 15m 50s | ||||||
| 5/19/26 | 2027 Vehicle Kill Switches: What the Law Really Says | Send us Fan Mail Are new vehicles really getting mandatory government “kill switches” in 2027? That rumor has exploded online, especially among truck owners and automotive enthusiasts, but what does the law actually say? In this episode, we break down the facts behind the viral claims, where the confusion started, and how modern connected vehicle technology already works in many new trucks and SUVs. We also discuss driver monitoring systems, privacy concerns, remote vehicle controls and why m... | 13m 31s | ||||||
| 5/15/26 | Could the Toyota Tacoma Become American-Built Again? $2 Billion Filing Says Yes | Send us Fan Mail In this episode, Tim breaks down reports that Toyota could be considering a major shift in Tacoma production with a proposed $2 billion expansion at its Texas manufacturing plant. Could the Tacoma move back to the United States after Toyota shifted production to Mexico just a few years ago? Tim explains where the Tacoma is currently built, the history of Toyota truck manufacturing in Texas, and why tariffs, supply chain concerns and political pressure may be influencing the c... | 15m 36s | ||||||
| 5/8/26 | Gas Prices Are High, Yet Ford CEO Admits Buyers Still Buying Reliable V8s | Send us Fan Mail Gas prices are rising again, yet truck buyers still keep choosing V8 engines over smaller turbocharged powertrains. In this week’s Truck News Recap, I dive into why reliability may matter more to truck owners than fuel economy numbers. I discuss comments from Jim Farley about continued V8 demand, despite Ford spending years promoting EcoBoost turbocharged engines as the future of trucks. I also break down the latest developments with the Toyota Tundra engine recall and why ma... | 16m 36s | ||||||
| 5/1/26 | Second Toyota Tundra Engine Recall Postponed Again Because Company Incredibly Still Doesn’t Really Have a Fix After 4 Years | Send us Fan Mail Toyota’s reputation for quality continues taking hits as the automaker has for the second time in four years forced owners of more than 125,000 late model Toyota Tundras and Lexus GX and LX SUVs to wait for a solution to the Toyota Tundra engine recall debacle.
