TEST DRIVE: Peterbilt’s new Model 567 is a head-turner and a breeze to maneuver
Given the realities of truck design today, Peterbilt’s Model 567 simply did not spring into existence all on its own. The truck is derived from the company’s Model 579 tractor, which debuted two years ago. The focus of the Model 579 was to create an entirely new and modern cab/driver environment. In order to do […]

Watch this Caterpillar D11T annihilate an old pickup truck because of hockey
Gotta love Canada. As you’ll see in their half-hearted play before the good stuff actually begins, this particular group of Canucks was heartbroken that the start of hockey season had been delayed. So, they decided to take their aggression out on the poor old Chevy pickup that happened to be nearest them. What did the […]

The Coldest Place on Earth and an Antarctic Condition 1 Storm
As I was shoveling my car out from yet another snowstorm and deicing the doors so I didn’t have to have my children crawl in through the trunk of the minivan (Yes, I’ve had to have them do that when the motorized sliding doors just would not open), I was trying to think positively – […]
