When you stop and think about the first word that comes to mind when someone says “Toyota Land Cruiser,” invariably it’s “capable” or some version of it. After a brief hiatus, the venerable beast returned last year. The new model retains the capability, but now infuses some luxury into the package, as we found out in our week with the 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser. Go to Headlight.News for the review.
It’s not quite the “Zoom Zoom” brand anymore, but Mazda consistently churns out offerings that look great, drive great, and are priced great. And the brand continues to improve these vehicles, the 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid Premium Plus being the latest example. Find out why in our review at Headlight.News.
Many people forget it was Lincoln that kicked off the full-size luxury SUV phenomenon two decades ago. The luxury SUV segment’s only continued to expand since then with brand’s filling their portfolios with posh off-roaders that rarely see anything more challenging than a two-track. Lincoln led the charge and looks to remain a top player, and the 2025 Lincoln Aviator certainly helps the cause. Check out our review at Headlight.News.
The latest- generation Ford Ranger has grown bigger and more lavishly equipped, but it’s still dramatically smaller than the full-size F-series which is simply too much truck for many potential pickup buyers. Is it the right midsize option, however? Read the whole review at Headlight.News.
Subaru is plugging in. While it was slow to launch its first all-electric model, the popular Japanese brand plans to have three EVs in its line-up by next spring – and it showed off its latest addition, the 2026 Subaru Uncharted, during a New York debut Wednesday night. Headlight.News was there.
Hyundai offered up a first look at the redesigned Palisade crossover a few months back and it drew plenty of attention considering all the tweaks and upgrades. But now the Korean carmaker has released the most important detail of all: pricing. And, depending upon which package you choose you’ll be spending as much as $3,060 more than for the outgoing model. Will customers accept the higher cost? More from Headlight.News.
It’s been nearly three decades since the Honda CR-V made its U.S. debut. Back then, folks derisively dubbed it a “soft-roader,” capable of handling not much more than a bit of gravel – if anyone ever chose to take it off pavement. Now, however, Honda is rolling out a new CR-V TrailSport package that, it claims, adds more off-road capabilities. Just how much more? Headlight.News headed into the San Jacinto Mountains near San Diego to find out. Here’s our review.
A good craftsman uses the right tool for the job, according to the adage. And if you want to help friends move or need to get gardening supplies to spruce up your home this summer, then the Toyota Tacoma would be an excellent option. However, if you want to climb rocks, ford streams, and head out to the middle of nowhere, you need the 2025 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro, which we spent a week with. Check out our review at Headlight.News.
When Ford launched an all-new version of the Explorer last year it sharply reduced the number of trim packages available, among other things, culling the rugged Timberline edition. The good number for off-roaders is that there’s a new Explorer Tremor coming to replace it for the 2026 model year. Headlight.News takes a closer look.
GMC has been leaning into its premium luxury and off-road capabilities in recent years, and that shows up in the 2025 GMC Acadia. And with a third row that actually be used by adults, it has plenty to offer for those looking for a comfortable long-hauler. Read the whole review at Headlight.News.
Toyota’s good at many things, and one of them is taking one vehicle and giving you several variations that are different from each other while occupying the same space. That becomes very obvious when you lay eyes on the 2025 Toyota Tundra TRD Rally. Check out our review at Headlight.News.
“We’re criminally insane,” laughs Andy Lilienthal, and you might agree when you consider that rather than taking the Interstates, he and wife Mercedes will bob and weave along the Trans-America Trail, a largely off-road, 7,100-mile route taking them from Oregon to North Carolina. Headlight.News has more on their month-long adventure.
