It's been just over four years, and the wait is officially over. The Tesla Cybertruck is here and it's already headed out onto Texas roads. It's still big, aggressive, and weird ... and it manages to outdo some of the 2019 hype.

To meet demand for a pickup shell built to hold all the provisions of modern adventure, LTA Manufacturing has launched the Venturous brand. The company's lightweight Ozark pickup cap uses an injection-molded design to carry several times more weight.

Here's something we didn't expect to see at the 2023 LA Auto Show: a new Cybertruck-like e-pickup that manages to look weirder than the Tesla. It's the Robotruck 1T, and it comes with a 550-mile range and 6-foot expandable pickup box ... er ...prism.

Küat has launched one of the market's most innovative and versatile pickup racks. Its Ibex isn't merely a skeletal rack but also a solid cap that can lock cargo away. The always-versatile pickup truck gets exponentially more versatile with an Ibex.

The 500-mile 1500 REV electric pickup Ram revealed in April promises to alleviate range anxiety symptoms. But the new 1500 Ramcharger looks to eradicate the problem entirely, using a two-motor e-drive and V6 generator for nearly 700 miles of range.

AntiShanty has previously launched some unique toy hauler camping trailers and a hard-walled rooftop tent. It's now added a four-season hard-sided truck camping shell designed to brave conditions from grizzly bear country to deep-winter snowscape.

Nearly a decade after launching its pickup drawer system, Decked is back with new-and-improved midsize and full-size truck drawers. The new drawers look to find the ultimate balance in organization, payload and go-anywhere off-grid ruggedness.

Five years on from the Gladiator debut, Jeep officially puts its name on a pickup camper. The modular system developed with Addax fits the Gladiator like a glove and uses separate camper shell, rooftop tent and add-on components for versatility.

Camp365 is pulling its lightweight, collapsible micro-cabin off the trailer and dropping it in the pickup bed. Its new Model T camper will be light enough for electric trucks, spreading its wings at camp to become a shelter for the whole family.
