There are lots of different numbers associated with your car's capabilities. Knowing a vehicle's ground clearance or approach angle can help with understanding a vehicle's off-road abilities, for instance. The payload, gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), and maximum towing capacity numbers, however, are very important to know if you plan on pulling a trailer. After all, what's the point in buying that shiny new SUV if it doesn't have the power to pull your boat to the lake on the weekends?

Whatever you do, don't hang your new SUV from a crane. First of all, getting your hands on a crane would be pretty tough, and secondly, Honda's already done the hard work for you. They've strung up three examples of their newest SUV from a 140-foot-tall crane to save you the trouble. AdvertisementIn a test that nobody asked for, but that we're still pretty impressed by, Honda linked together three new 2026 Passport TrailSport models via their front recovery points and sent them skyward.

RATING : 9 / 10 Prodigious power from the 6.2-liter V8 Impressive handling and steering Stereo is out of this world good Lots of storage space Price rises quickly with options Exhaust note is underwhelming Some disappointing interior details It's easy to gawk over the four-digit power numbers that the ZR1 boasts, or speculate about a possible future that includes an even-more-powerful Zora model, but the real meat and potatoes of the Chevrolet Corvette lineup is the Stingray.

According to the EPA, there are a number of reasons why your vehicle's mpg is going down. Those factors include things like high-speed driving, hilly terrain, and increases in cargo. It makes sense, right? Drive faster and there's more load on your engine, which requires more fuel — hence a reduction in fuel economy. These factors are all considered when rating a standard vehicle for fuel economy or range, but they all apply to towing a trailer too.

With the nose of the new 2025 Bronco Sport pointed directly at the ground, I couldn't see the horizon or the sky out of the windshield. My left rear tire was up in the air with about a dozen people standing by watching. The employee from Ford who was directing this part of our off-road expedition had successfully guided four other drivers down this particularly treacherous set of rocks via two-way radio, and I was the last to drive down.

Instead of names, many manufacturers use numbers and a slew of abbreviations, so it's understandable if you're a bit confused after looking at all those names on a list and deciding which bike is right for you. In Yamaha's Hyper-Naked category of street bikes, there are basically four flavors to choose from: MT-03, MT-07, MT-09, and MT-10. There are pumped-up versions of the MT-09 and MT-10 with the SP designation, but the four different versions of Yamaha's MT bikes are the most important.

The Ford Raptor lineup is full of off-road capability added to standard Ford vehicles via pumped up engines and heavy-duty off-road hardware. Trucks like the Ranger Raptor and SUVs like the Bronco Raptor are laser focused on the tasks at hand when it comes to conquering local trails. They're amongst the best in their class when it comes to off-roading. But the truck that started it all is the F-150 Raptor, which has offered rock-clamoring prowess since its introduction in 2010.
