The big, old, and slow SUVs of years past are, well… in the past. From a willingness to suffer poor gas mileage for the sake of power and size to recognition as some of the top performers all around, we’ve come a long way since the SUV class rose to popularity. Between 1975 and 1985, average fuel economy for light trucks increased from 11.6 to 19.5 miles per gallon. Nowadays, we scoff at 19.5: modern SUVs…
The Ford Bronco is back! Introduced as the first-ever SUV by the American automaker, the Bronco has had a fairly successful run spanning five generations, starting from 1966 to 1996. After a 25-year long hiatus, Ford has finally released the sixth generation of the Bronco, capturing all that an avid off-roading enthusiast can ask for, and even more. While it might be a while before the all-new Bronco models will be available online live auction…

Whether you’re into skiing, snowboarding, sledding, or just need a change of scenery, making your way…
With more and more automakers joining the EV race (see our last post about the HD LiveWire), finding the right electric vehicle now comes with what kind you want.

Now with so many options on the market, picking the electric car, truck, SUV, crossover, or motorcycle…
We all know and love the Jeep Wrangler, and some of us know and love the Jeep Comanche. While the Comanche is relatively rare with only 200,000 made, the Jeep Wrangler is a dime a dozen on the road, and for good reason. They’re excellent off-roaders, practical commuters, and everything in between. So, with the relatively recent release of the Jeep Gladiator, we’re looking at the best of both worlds. Let’s take a look at…

One of the most important aspects of buying clean or salvage title vehicles at auction is understanding the damage codes on each lot listing. Vehicles can have multiple damage codes, but the order in which they appear doesn’t mean that one is more prevalent than the other. Damage codes are indicated by the Copart yard that is auctioning the vehicle, and they are for reference only. We strongly recommend that you inspect the vehicle thoroughly…
If you love being in the mountains or driving anywhere outside of the city, chances are you care about your environmental impact too. There are many viable options to make the hike to the hills – although not on foot – and limit the damage we cause. Typical 4X4 and older AWD vehicles have heavier gas and oil consumption than newer SUV’s and Crossovers, but if you want to keep your emissions green and still…
