AS SEEN IN OUR JULY/AUGUST 2026 ISSUE – Buy Now!

THE YEAR IS FLYING BY!

I  am shocked at how fast this year is flying by! I’ve had the chance to get out and have lots of adventures with plenty more ahead. I’m truly trying my best to soak up the beautiful weather, spend time in the back country, and work on a couple of builds.

Our July/August issue is full of amazing features, solid tech, and a new Behind the Builder with Allied Fab. We have some epic feature builds, including a profile on Blake Wilkey, a true Industry Shaker, a wild All-Out Bomber, an ever-evolving Patina Chevy, Brenan’s Lock Off-Road 4Runner build, Tiffany’s child dream come true, and a far-from-stock Bad Samurai. Each of these builds is unique and purpose-built, and we are pumped to share them with you.

We also have great tech articles for you too as we install a new bed rack and add a stripe package to our American Gladiator build.

Don’t miss out on some exclusive coverage from the 2026 King of the Hammers event we all know and love!

Of course, we’ve got all your favorite columns as well—Made the Cut, Tread on Trails, Outfitted, and Gear Box—each packed with the latest gear, accessories, and destination inspiration for your off-road lifestyle.

Share your adventures, photos, and stories with us at tread.com. Whether it’s a weekend run or a bucket-list expedition, we love seeing what you’re up to. You can also tag us on Instagram @tread_magazine whenever you post!

And if you’ve got an unbelievable build or an unforgettable journey in the works, don’t hesitate to reach out. Email me at dence@engage.media. I’d love to hear about it.

Where are you headed next?!

Happy trails,
