SUMMERTIME & THE LIVIN’ IS EASY!

One of the coolest things about 2026 so far for me is how much time I am getting to spend out on the water with friends! We have been enjoying the backcountry, camping, and, of course, getting a ton of fishing in.

Our Sept/Oct issue is full of amazing features, solid tech, and epic event coverage. We have some amazing feature builds, including Fritz’s Land Cruiser named Steve, an overland rig that checks the right boxes for adventure; a wild C10 prerunner that was built for full-send experiences; Mason’s 4Runner build; Taylor’s dream 4Runner; Vinncent’s wild F-150; and a far-from-stock Willy’s. 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 take our American Gladiator project to the next level.

Don’t miss out on exclusive coverage from the 2026 Great American Crawl and our coverage of Terra Crew’s Speed Metal event!

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,
Devan Ence
