cars in minitruckin

man o man.. so much has already been said here. I vote yes for Cars (or car) in MT. I only wish i could have gotten my car in mini truckin... and for all you saying leave it for the mini trucks, then get rid of all the SUV's, Choppers, FON radio Flyers, Girls, and the shots of people from the show coverage cus they're not mini's. You drive me nuts with that aurgument. Yet, you all still buy Surface-dvd and LLV etc etc and they show cars in their coverage. Someone said it before, the scene is not made up of just mini. Never has never will, and the Scene (i believe) on the west coast is fading. Look at the attdance numbers. I think that is cars had a place in a REAL newstand magazine, it would motivate cars owners to show up or build/finish their rides.

I say drop a car in here or there. Come on, Truckin' is a boat errrhh a truck magazine but everyone still picks it up.

most of you probably haven't seen the mags out there for cars............i see rice rag mags, muscle car mags, lowrider, etc. none of which really is fitting to the mini inspired cars

Seems like there is a demand for a magazine like grinder. Maybe mini truckin should stay the way it is and keep cars out. IFFF they do that there really needs to be someone to step up and finacially back up a new magazine. Just stick a chick in a bikini or lingerie on the cover and it will sell im sure. Have a magazine cover just slamed mini trucks, fullsizes, slammed imports, slammed fullsize cars, and classics. Why not? shit TONS of pages of people showing interest in the fighting this issue in ethier ways.

Why dont you car guys try to be in LOWRIDER MAGAZINE I think your barkin up the wrong rocker panel.Find your own publication to grace the pages not one entitled MINI TRUCKIN

That has to be one of the most offensive things I have heard in this thread.I don't think your a real minitrucker because if you where you wouldn't speak like that to your fellow enthusiast and if you think cars are not a part you have no experience with minitruck shows.The word minitruck doesn't belong to you,it belongs to the people involved in that group of shows,videos,forums,shops.If fact you don't even know who your refering too when you insult someone who owns a car because my guess would be most own trucks also and truck shops,companys.

well fist of all i know what it is to be a minitrucker sorry but ive been building them and showin them foe 20+ years ive also built imports and full size trucks but my heart and soul is minitrucks so for you to say im not a real minitrucker maybe you should know me first.im just sayin that the mag has tried the whole compact car thing it didnt work the first time it wont work this time.ask yourself why minitruckin was started.and again i have nothin against other custom builders but unless im blind in one eye and cant see out the other it reads MINI TRUCKIN

From yor post I don't think you even read this thread.If you go back and read you will see most your points have been addressed and discussed for several pages and minitruckin was started because it outgrew the van mags it started in.

And I know this because I own van power mags from the period when minitrucks started showing up at van shows.So you see minitruckin was once part of something else.

um yes i read it sorry i read all eight pages and the van magazine just so happened to be truckin mag if i cant give my opinion about the title of the thread than why not close it again i have nothin against anyone cuz i enjoy all customs but be just like the minitrucks and get your own magazine is all im sayin and if my ex wife wouldnt have taken my disks i would be able to show the many vehicles me and my shop have built most my own others friends rides

well i like a bunchof the cars on this site, some people have done some bad ass stuff with them, but i buy mini"truckin" to looks at mini trucks.. i dont wanna see a honda civic as a feature.
