The midsize truck world in America is a tighter fight than the full-size category. You’ve got a few heavy hitters, each trying to own the same space of daily drivability, trail capability, and “I can still haul stuff” practicality. The Tacoma brings its name badge. The Chevy Colorado ZR2 has a loyal crowd. Nissan Frontier Pro-4X is increasing in popularity. Hell, even the Ridgeline has a TrailSport badge now. Everyone wants a piece of the pie.

But, then there’s the Ford Ranger Raptor—which basically shows up to the conversation and says: “Cool. Now let’s go faster and off-road better.”

If you’re shopping for a new 2026 Ford Ranger Raptor, here’s the real story: what it is, what it isn’t, and why it’s become the performance benchmark in the midsize off-road segment.

When it comes to upgrading your Toyota Tacoma or 4Runner, mud flaps probably are not the most exciting mod on your list. But choosing the right style makes a bigger difference than most people realize. The wrong setup can rub...

The FL5 Type R, officially the 2023+ FL5 Civic Type R, sticks to the original formula that made the badge legendary: front-wheel drive, a six-speed manual, and obsessive attention to chassis tuning and driver feedback. It’s the most powerful production Honda ever sold in the U.S., but more importantly, it’s one of the last new cars built around feel rather than filters.

This overview breaks down what makes the FL5 Type R special, how it compares to past Type Rs, what ownership is really like, and where RokBlokz products fit into protecting a car that’s meant to be driven.

If you're into off-roading and have never been to the Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah—buckle up. This isn't just another wheeling trip. It's the off-road event of the year. Hosted annually by Red Rock 4-Wheelers, Inc., the Easter Jeep Safari (or EJS) brings together thousands of 4x4 enthusiasts from across the globe for nine days of epic trail rides, jaw-dropping red rock scenery, and some serious good times.

The Honda Prelude is officially back, and if you’re expecting a Civic Type R with two doors and a nostalgia badge, not so fast. Honda didn’t revive the Prelude to chase lap times or dyno numbers. They brought it back to do something way harder in today’s car world: make driving fun again without making daily life miserable.

If you’ve followed Toyota’s GR journey from the pits to the podium, you knew this was coming: a RAV4 with genuine Gazoo Racing DNA. It’s the first GR-badged RAV4, built on the all-new sixth-gen platform and tuned with the same “feel it through the seat” approach that’s been behind Toyota’s recent run of enthusiast hits. It’s built for everyday drivers who need practicality but still care about how a vehicle feels behind the wheel.

Overlanding has exploded in popularity in the last few years, but for many, the concept still feels like a mix between off-roading and camping. Truth is, it’s both — and a whole lot more. Overlanding is about self-reliance, exploration, and the drive to get far off the grid where the road ends and adventure begins.

At RokBlokz, we live for the dirt, the distance, and the challenge. And we know that when you’re miles away from civilization, your setup needs to be more than capable — it needs to be dependable. Whether you’re crawling rocky trails, crossing desert flats, or mudding through dense forests, the right overlanding accessories and gear make all the difference between a great trip and a miserable one.

There’s a reason the Subaru WRX is one of the most beloved rally legends ever to hit dirt. From the early days of Fuji Heavy Industries to the golden age of turbocharged all-wheel-drive domination, Subaru built more than just cars — they built a culture. For those of us at RokBlokz, that legacy runs deep. Our roots are in the same dirt those Subaru rally cars tore through, and our mission is built on the same obsession with durability, performance, and protection. 

Is it really happening? After years of waiting and wondering if Subaru had given up on real performance cars, they just dropped something big—the Performance-B STI Concept. It made its debut at the Japan Mobility Show, and honestly, it looks so close to production that it almost feels like a teaser for what’s next. For anyone who grew up loving the WRX and STI, this feels like a glimpse of hope that Subaru’s performance spirit isn’t gone—it’s just been warming up.
