Do you still get any car magazines?

MCG's latest issue isn't filled with trailer queens for a change. It does seem like Rob only focuses on queens though. Saw that again in Van Nuys.

Gone are the days reading stuff on paper, only time I do anymore is when waiting at the place I get my haircut or at the dentist having some magazines. I don’t see them at the clinics, maybe they think they spread germs. At the clinic I go to I can’t get a decent cell signal.

I have hundreds of magazines a few going back to the 1950’s.

At the last car show put a bunch of them out on a table under our canopy with a sign ‘free today only’. It was fun to watch the people who came up to sift through them, even youngsters and young gals. By the time maybe a dozen were taken, a guy walked up saying ‘Can I take all of them?’ I said have at it, he replied thanks this will be great reading over winter. Still have tons hoping to give them away at the next show in a few weeks.

Miss those days when the latest edition of magazines came in the mail and reading a bit of the morning newspaper over a quick breakfast before heading to work like my dad did. Maybe just the loss of a time that seemed simpler and having some youth left, lol.

I still buy Collectible Automobiles, although it has gotten pretty expensive. I subscribe to a Canadian magazine; Muscle Cars, Bone Stock and Modified. The magazine I miss the most is Muscle Car Review.

That mullet headed dork has featured OEM correct cars and trailer park specials (Run down Day Two cars with N-50-15s and foot long shackles) but turns a blind eye to anything that has a wheel diameter bigger than 15”.
I’ve seen him skip right past nice cars with 17s or 18s on them as if HE is the authority on what is acceptable.

That guy needs to understand the times and the younger crowd. Cars are only "collectable" if there is a buyer. Can't ignore the younger crowd, they all want this as a Charger:

This forum has gone around on the younger crowd and keeping the craft and car culture alive enough not to bring that up in this thread, but to see a guy with an already dinosaur type media cling to dinosaur type car ideas and ignore the current and future state of things makes you wonder if he is that out of touch or trying to single handedly defy and "correct" the entire car culture.

I'm down to none. MA was my favorite for the reasons already mentioned. I let MCG expire a few years ago. I just couldn't take the writing style anymore.
I should start re-reading my old ones. Anymore, with my memory, it's like reading them new again. I have the same thing with movies. Movies I've already seen years back are like watching them new again (except for the ones I've seen 10 times).

Is there any?
