What's A Good Truck Magazine Subscription To Get?
 
I get Haggerty's because of my insurance. It's good, but it's 99% cars.
*Vintage Truck* seems pretty good. I don't think *This Old Truck* is around anymore.....

Any of you guys get a magazine in the mail?

C/10 Builders guide is alright. But, you can google mostly anything and find a website with similar info, compared to a hard copy magazine. I recall my grandpa had tons of the Street Trucks magazines when I was younger. I enjoyed looking them over.

Classic Truck Performance, C/K magazine are my favorite. StreetTrucks is OK.

Yeah, I Still read magazines and books...Heck, I'll Still look at a Chilton's and Hayes (for fun)...
The O'Reilly' by my house Still has a huge wall in the back with parts catalogs, It's been a looong time since I've seen anybody use them though.
I still need to get that engine decoder book that some guy on here told me about (it's expensive) . He found info in it that I couldn't find on line.....

It's nice to have a magazine in hand. Looking at a magazine online just ain't the same, in my opinion.

This forum is better than any magazine I've read since Skinned Kuckles went under. It's also got all the mainstream magazines beat all the back to the early 70's.

Just my opinion which along with a sawbuck will get you a steaming hot cup of Joe just about anywhere. :mm:

I have just over 500 issues of Skinned Knuckles and have read every issue. I also have just about every issue of Vintage Truck, previously named This Old Truck (had to change name because This Old House sued).

The full color pictures of beautifully restored trucks are nice, but the education you get from Skinned Knuckles is more of what I am/was interested in. Plus the stories from “Old Timers” like Henry Miller were always educational and entertaining.

Hopefully whoever settles my estate doesn’t just toss my Skinned Knuckles collection.

Agreed-

If I can't figure it out.

Search tab will.

10-12 years back I got HiPo Pontiac, Car Kraft, Motor Trend, and Super Chevy, Got a great deal, and they were cool. Now they are no more for the most part.

Totally agree with HO455! There's far more useful knowledge on this forum than the magazines I've seen. Plenty of great photos too, for that matter.
