Is the Toyota RAV4 Safe? A Look at our Long-Termer’s Safety Credentials
Now that we’ve explored the Toyota RAV4’s impressive real-world fuel economy and ruminated on our favorite features, it’s time to delve deeper into the most important buying consideration. Because this vehicle is a popular family SUV, that consideration is safety. The first thing that catches your attention behind the wheel is visibility. Fortunately, the RAV4 excels in this area. A low windshield, boxy proportions, and skillfully placed pillars make it easy to see out the front and side of the vehicle. A rear camera provides a relatively clear view out the rear of our XLE tester. Unfortunately, you must upgrade to a package on the TRD Off-Road or Limited if you want a fancy 360-degree camera. For 2020, the RAV4 joins the Ford Escape, Honda CR-V, and other key competitors...

$90,000-Plus 2021 Ram 1500 TRX Launch Edition Sells Out in Three Hours
It comes as no surprise, but for those interested in ordering the 2021 Ram 1500 TRX Launch Edition, don’t bother. It’s too late, already. Hot on the heels of Ram’s announcement of what it considers to be the fastest, quickest, and most powerful pickup truck on the market, all 702 orders allotted for the special Launch Edition were filled in about three hours.

I’m French and Fall Is My Favourite Season for Fashion—Here Are My Picks
We’re constantly inspired by Aïda Sané and her French-girl style account @basicstouch. In fact, she recently shared with us some of the specific basics she wears on repeat to create her signature pared-down vibe. Well, given that she has a breadth of sartorial knowledge, we thought we’d tap her to share some of the autumn items she’s looking forward to wearing. On that note, we thought this would be particularly entertaining given that fall just so happens to be Sané’s favorite season. On a recent IG post this summer, she stated, “The weather looks like fall at the moment, but I’m not complaining since I’m already waiting for coat season.” Curious about the simple autumn pieces she’ll be adding into her rotation ...

Alexa Chung’s Hairdresser Just Told Me the Best Haircut for My Face Shape
George Northwood and Elinor Block in a Zoom call Days before I went for the cut, I spoke to George over Zoom. I quickly gave him the facts: I hadn’t had my haircut for over six months, I wanted to go short, but how short could I go? The reason for the short hair question was because I didn’t know when I’d have another chance of getting my haircut (hello, second wave) and I couldn’t face my hair getting so long again. “Post-lockdown, everyone is desperate for a big change,” says George. “To get the look you’re after, you need to consider what you want to achieve and think about the different proportions.” For me, George suggested that I can go short and even take it up to my jawline if I want, as I’ve got a longer face than I realise. So, by cutting the length, it won’t mak...
Old Car City U.S.A. Is Part Graveyard, Part Playground for Fans of Abandoned Classic Cars
This story originally ran in 2014 on Hot Rod. For more barn find and classic car content, check out Hot Rod Network. You’ve probably seen images from this place before. Big finned Cadillacs sinking slowly in the loam, a 1967 GTO peering out from waist-high weeds, vines curling around the mirrors and in and out of hood scoops, pre-safety glass windshields starred and fogged from decades of quiet resting in the woods. There are more than six miles of trails in and around the Georgia forest land that houses these picturesque scenes of abandonment, and the owner of it all, Dean Lewis, knows exactly how striking it is. See all 258 photos There is a sign on the fence that reads “CARS, ART, NATURE, HISTORY.” That sums up Dean’s approach to his 34-acre vintage car...
2022 Toyota Tundra: What We Know About the Next One
An All-New Toyota Tundra for 2022 The 2022 Toyota Tundra is due to ride on the company’s latest truck chassis. Reportedly coined Toyota New Global Architecture-F (or TNGA-F), the Tundra’s body-on-frame underpinnings ought to benefit from greater use of high-strength steel and other weight-saving materials. Like the Ram 1500, we anticipate the next-gen Tundra will adopt coil springs—in place of the current truck’s leaf springs—to go with its live rear axle. Such a setup will surely improve the truck’s ride quality. Likewise, we expect the lither 2022 Tundra to notably improve upon the outgoing model’s maximum 1,730-pound payload and 10,200-pound towing figures. Of course, it will have to, with more-modern light-duty competitors offering capacities that far outs...
Is Luke Bryan Becoming an Underwear Model?
He has a new album, he’s back on ‘Idol’ and now he’s teaming up with an iconic underwear brand. Luke Bryan got a little nervous when his wife, Caroline, opened a package of underwear Jockey sent him. The country couple, newly announced as brand ambassadors, unboxed some Jockey goodies for a comical campaign spot — and even though Bryan insisted he’s “been working out,” he wasn’t so sure about the thong. “Here’s your new go-to,” Caroline teased her husband, holding up a garment that would leave little to the imagination. “This is a prank, is what that is,” he playfully shot back in the clip, which was filmed in Nashville. (For the record, Bryan was all smiles about wearing the boxer briefs.) On Instagram, where the pair...
