Custom-built Cherokee Chief by Anthony Rivas [Reader’s Ride]

He did his own stripes and Cherokee Chief logos and installed […]

This “Yeti” Has Nothing To Do With Axial

When we saw this tractor-lookin’ rig in the first video below, we thought it was someone’s wacky homebuilt, but it turns out the “Yeti” is actually built specifically for knifing through super-deep snow (see the second video, which turns into a plazma-cutter commercial).

It’s usually pretty easy to spot a special effects car shot; anytime the action is totally bonkers, it’s a fair bet you’re looking at a CGI car.

Tekno’s New SCT410.3 Looks Killer

“The SCT410.3 leapfrogs over the 4×4 SC competition in terms of performance, durability, and value,” says Tekno. Sounds good to us! Tekno already had a hot 4X4 with the previous-gen truck, and the new point-three looks like an even more serious short-course track weapon. It’s due in April, look for a review in RCCA. See […]
