^Phew. I thought I was weird or something. I only get one. Consumer Reports, and have for at least 20 years. I'm cheap, or I mean frugal.

I would like to get a car magazine. Which one is the best? Or is it a matter of preference? I don't care about mods but I do like to know what's out there, especially the sports cars.

funny thing about magazines.
while most everything is more accessible and more up to date online, it's still nicer to have a magazine in the reading room.

Here's a very good one that doesn't cost a dime. Just sign up and they let you know each month when a new issue comes out online.

Reading room? Is that the place with the plug-in de-stinker?

Why do guys like to hatch eggs in there? Well, some guys, at least.

Thanks, Dave! I'll go do that now. I do love to go to bed with a magazine or book though, in my hands.

Motor Trend, Car and Driver, and AutoWeek. I see a pattern here.

Wow! That was a long terms of agreement or whatever it was called. I could have spent an hour reading it.

You all remind me of Jeff Goldblum in "The Big Chill."

Scientific American and Sunset.

I refuse to get any car mags. I don't think my willpower is strong enough to look at new cars all of the time.
