In this episode of TFL Talkin’ Trucks, Andre is joined by Stephen Elmer from Truck King to tackle one big question: are sport trucks actually making a comeback? From modern performance pickups to the brands leaning back into speed and style, they break down what defines a sport truck today and whether the trend has enough momentum to stick around.

They also dive into the broader world of truck testing, including events like the Ford Raptor Rally, evolving drive modes, new electric trucks like the GMC Sierra EV, and what really goes on behind the scenes when reviewing trucks. It’s an insightful, honest conversation between two veteran truck testers who live and breathe pickups.
