 I vote for Mopar Muscle #1 MCG #2 The other two so so. The problem in my opinion with the last two and sometimes my other choices is, with all do respect if I see one more hemi car I am gonna lose it. :eyes: Look at the total sales of hemis compared to all the other engine choices. Maybe 1 in 25 had a hemi. But you read these mags and it's like we all drive them. Enough already. :brickwall: And all the articles that deal with ;first we buy a crate motor for $4,00 put on these 4 wheel dics brakes for another $1,500 don't forget the EFI kit for another $1,000 etc.. What ever happened to the low budget tech article that we used to see. I would like maybe a 6 month series on somebody who has  a family and a limited budget and find that  6 cylinder 73 duster for $800.00 bucks and is scrouging around for a nice 318 or 360 in the paper to drop in it to start and then go from there Same with articles on tools and such. Many of use might fix up 1 or 2 cars in our lifetime but we see articles on the best welder for under $2,000. Sorry if I am going to spend $1,500 on a welder she better feed me beer and give me a back rub :drool5: I dont know maybe i am being to cynical but  i think about %90 of this hobby is not high dollar resto, although thats where the money is, so why do %90 of the articles seem to be slated that way.

MCG usually has some of the best Mopar-related content and great classifieds, but I am (at times) embarrased for it to be seen in my family's mailbox.  I wish Rob would keep the girlie content in girlie magazines, and car stuff in car magazines - including the advertisements.  For that reason alone, I'm letting my subscription to MCG expire.  It wasn't that bad 4 or 5 years ago when I subscribed, but the whole Mopars At The Mansion thing has caused their emphasis to change for the worse IMHO.  Rob has publicly belittled a few subscribers who have dared to express similar opinions, so I won't fool myself into thinking they have any interest in changing based on readership feedback.  That's just my opinion, and I know there are folks who don't see things the same way.

I do subscribe to Mopar Enthusiast, which seems like it's picking up a little steam.  I hope Greg Rager stays involved, as he's been around the Mopar scene a long time.

:Twocents:

Precisely why I have never subscribed to MCG. I am interested in Mopars and not a bunch of broads.
