Road & Track magazine
Road & Track magazine is changing editors and the publisher, Hurst, has moved it’s offices from its historic home in Newport Beach, California to Ann Arbor, Michigan to combine it in the same building with Car & Driver, as they own both magazines.

I'm not sure if it's the beginning, I think it's been headed that way for a while.
This is more of just a signpost along the way.

More and more we're headed to online mags instead of printed material. I have mixed feelings about that since I enjoy reading things on the printed page a lot more than scanning a screen. The "conservationist" side of me likes that trees aren't being cut down and the atmosphere isn't being polluted to produce paper. But I also think the manufacture of all our computing devices creates its own pollution and destruction of resources as well.

I have been getting R&T since I was 13...
And Car and Driver is one of my least favorite rags
I'll say this, if they want to continue selling both rags, then they had better keep them as different as they are now
In my Veloster Turbo world I have been saying all along, I will not form any conclusions until I read both a R&T review as well as one by AutoWeek
A quality review of my next car

I've been reading and getting subscriptions to car magazines since about the age of 10 and have found the 'big three' of car magazines have gotten worse and worse over the last 10+ years. Presently I get specialty car magazines such as Hemmings Sports and Exotic and Excellence the porsche magazine I enjoy Peter Egan in Road and Track but don't find much interest in the rest of the magazine. Part of it is I'm not really interested in the new cars anymore and I have found other magazines Car and Driver for example have gotten too political with their editorials.

The key is there are just so damnn few non-5-door hot hatches to choose from in this country, and that is the only thing I want for my next vehicle purchase
The CR-Z clearly was not the next coming of the CRX-Si, but in many ways I think the Veloster is
I just really hope R&T can keep their unique identity in tack...

For me though, if I could only get one rag, there is no question what it would be, AutoWeek
