And comes out to infrequently.

I got it this morning and I've already finished it, now what do I do with the rest of my 4-6 weeks before another one comes out?

While I might agree with the part about it coming too infrequently....but hey, these writin' folks have to have a life, too.

I really would NOT call GRM, even in jest, "This CRAPPY magazine...."

You are reading too fast. Did you know that the tip-in cards are 100% hemp? Roll them, smoke, them, and then read. It will slow you down nicely.

i only read on the crapper in teh morning before work. because i never get up as early as i should, this means i only get about 8 minutes at a time. this might be an effective way for you to reduce the amount of month left at the end of your magazine.

Too small? Show me the bigger enthusiast publication.

You could always supplement it with this crappie magazine:

I don't care what any of you say, it ought to be the size of the old Sears & Roebuck catalog and come every week!

Oh, and well played JG, even if you did spell the word wrong.

I volunteer carguy123 to be in charge of putting out a S&R sized catalog every week. Should be a cakewalk for him.

Being a production manager/graphic designer in charge of 10 printed catalogs, I know what it takes and have the upmost respect for the work you do on the magazine. It's more work than would think.

Be thankful you can at least still title your cars. I might not be able to get tabs for 3 of mine next week, apparently the MN government wants a vacation.

The solution is simple, hire more people and cut the price of the magazine so even the poor people can afford it - that's the American (govt's) way.

No, sometimes I can ration it and read a little along and along and sometimes I'm busy so all I get is 5 minutes here and 5 minutes there, but this time I got an uninterrupted read. I've even googled or otherwise hit the web on interesting items or articles (see my 1 post lift thread) and I've posted about the the Supersport cars.

BTW the supersports cars almost has more information in the ad than in the web and the American version is just about the ugliest car I've ever seen

Pssst... You are supposed to take the things you learn and go apply them during that 4-6 weeks...

As my Irish ancestors would have said, "Well, Glory be to God, and have yez not thought of reading it again?"

Where is it written (if you'll excuse the expression) that reading a GRM issue is a one-time event?

I revisit them multiple times even when there ISN'T a postal strike.

DIsagree, they should be at our beck and call for all things GRM related, 24/7!

I couldn't agree with you more. It sucks to be poor.

Interesting note, I once counted this because I was in the mood to piss a co worker off, and GRM has less ads per pages than Oprah magazine does. And most other car mags from what i've seen.

And better yet, the ads in GRM are useful.
