From a $263,000 Ram 1500 pickup truck and the mid-engine 2020 Chevrolet Corvette to the upcoming 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, Motor Authority published thousands of stories in 2018.

Some were funny, some were sad, and some were just bizarre, but 10 stories really rose above the rest with readers.

As we say so-long to 2018 and prepare for a new year full of luxury and performance vehicle news, here are MA's top 10 stories of 2018 ranked from least to most popular.

Apparently, you guys can't get enough of the G63 AMG 6x6 because this story is from 2015. Yet, it was the tenth most popular story this year. It's long been sold, so maybe it's time to give up the dream.

Chevrolet introduced a refreshed version of its pony car this past April ... and it didn't get the warmest welcome. The controversial exterior design likely helped push the story into our top 10 most-read stories this year.

This year was full of mid-engine Corvette news, and this past April, dealerships said Chevy showed the car off at a dealer meeting in Las Vegas. It was one of the few confirmations outside of spy photos that we'd soon see a revolutionary Corvette model.

Surprise! More mid-engine Corvette news. Spy shots captured this past September became our second-most read story of 2018—and for good reason. The spy photos showed the car without black cladding and skimpier camouflage that allowed us to see more of the car's production bodywork.

Apparently, you guys really like strange-looking and luxurious pickup trucks. This coach-built Ram 1500 from Aznom Automotive was our most popular story of 2018. The firm created the Maybach of pickups by doubling the crew cab's size and stuffing the truck with every comfort imaginable. We just wish it didn't look so goofy from the side profile.

We'll see you in 2019 as we continue to bring you the best in the luxury and performance sector.
