Inside Toyota's Iron Block Six Tuners Still Trust With 800 HP (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It may seem surprising that a turbocharged six-cylinder from the 1990s remains a hugely relevant force in performance engines with 800-horsepower-plus capability. When Toyota introduced this engine to the U.S. market, it was advertised at only 267 horsepower, while JDM versions were officially rated around 276 to 280 horsepower. Yet what is most impressive about this engine is how capable it is in mostly stock configuration. Its durability-focused architecture is its biggest strength and why thi

Read excerpt
Toyota has been the dominant force in the global automotive industry for so long that it's hard to remember a time when it wasn't topping the sales charts or breaking new records.

The Midsize SUV That Hits The Sweet Spot Between Luxury And Practicality (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We get it: if you are going to spend $50,000+ on a new SUV, it better be able to do just about anything and everything. We mean commuting, road trips, towing, all-weather driving, and all-terrain driving. When we say all-terrain, we aren’t talking about some washboards on a dirt road that a Toyota Prius can handle; we mean legitimate low-speed rock crawling with a wheel in the air. Usually, that level of off-road capability would mean compromising on comfort or simply costing an exorbitant amoun
