Best-Trucks 2016

America invented the pickup truck, and this vehicle still speaks to our national enthusiasm for getting things done. For a short time, rising fuel prices put a damper on the American driver's love of trucks, but truck manufacturers have responded by engineering a new breed of fuel-efficient engines. Trucks have also become more comfortable to drive, matching carlike interiors with carlike handling. These days, trucks now offer all the amenities that used to be found only in cars — leather interiors, premium stereos, Bluetooth and other advanced electronic features. As always, however, trucks are about utility, which is why they come in a wide array of body styles (regular cab, crew cab, extended cab) and a sometimes bewildering number of engine/payload combinations.
