I'd be all for it! It seems as though Truckin' gets a little worse every issue... guess I ain't into heavy *** 28in wheels and plastic body kits that look like they came straight from Star Wars. Lmao, too bad they can't include at least some performance specs. Like instead of just being super undescriptive and saying "a comp cam" I'd appreciate some specs... Maybe that's just me tho, Idk

The problem is that the magazines are nothing but advertisements. So its unlikely to ever get a mag that is really for what we want to read. All the truck mags do is a cai cat back exhaust and programmers 90% of the time.

Money makes the world go round. Without advertisers you don't get the magazine funded. I know the subscribers help the cost pretty good but you need money to get it off the ground and advertisement are free money so to speak. I know why they do it but it just hurts us shade tree mechanics that read those false or biased assements.
