all great ideas, and as always we appreciate the input

Just in case you never noticed we do run pics of the owner quite frequently when we have them available. Also we run tons of Japanese and Australia trucks, more then every other magazine combined. Some people have actually voiced their opinion that it's too much we've kicked around the flashback type stories, and did a few in the 20 yr anniversary issues, but then we get the new kids (majority of the readers) that don't really dig on it but yeah, like it was said, very hard to please everyone, but we feel we do THE BEST out there at covering OUR scene, and we will continue to bust arse to put out the best minitruck coverage each and every single month!!!

Keep the suggestions coming and thanks for all the support guys!!!



all that & no mention of unicorns or 720 on the covers thats how its gonna be huh ... I gotta start searchin for a certain video to post .........

aight, aight, aight! let's see some pics of your truck, not the video incident

more interior and engine shots

Many of those suggestions happen.
There have been driving, dragging shots or its one photoshop away from looking like it. Some trucks would not benefit from driving shots as they don't really look much different. My drive height isn't much different then parked height.
Terry (impoundedkota) reminded me of sideshow (late 90's) being on the cover last year.
Out of country rides. Wasn't there a japanese truck up for minitruck of the year?

All things mentioned have been done just not constantly. Some should not be done constantly. But it is always good to think of new ways to do things. If you reran old trucks then people would get mad its taking space away from a current truck. How would that impact minitruck of the year?

Fullsizes? really. They have more outlets then minitrucks.

For all you who may not know there is another site besides this one that directly concerns the magazine and the web producer works her ass off over there with endless improvements to the site and tons of features, forums videos and show coverage, and crazy enough theres a whole forum category for ideas to improve the mag why not go put your two cents in there and aid the growth of that site and the mag. shoot, join up at the same time and suppourt what many of us consider a forum of a bible online

That's my Hardbody on the cover,and it has the same rims and paint on the right side,just like the left.It's not flawless,hadn't been waxed,but Mike and Galen did a kickass job!I figure they parked it in the Studio,and it appears that it's close to the wall on the right side,and once the truck is parked,they get their shots,at those angles available.You see the front,rear,side,and inside the bed.Hardbody on the cover?Rare indeed.Keep Mini Truckin',Mini's only.Could my truck be better?Can MT be better?Yep.But as is,I like my truck on the cover,and MT is the best source,for all things Mini Truck.

hairbear always badgering! lol. Screw yer 720 Jen just want pics of the rubber duckie. lol aaaarrrrrrrrr.

one thing I really don't like about the mag is the "bolt on tech" like "breathe easy", "air zenith fan install" and "how to lower your yota an inch" I know that in most of these you are promoting products but jeeez I know those "kits" come with instructions! one other thing the "synthetic vs conventional oil" wtf? lol
other than the tech I love MT!! it always puts a smile on my face when I find a new one in the mailbox, and make's poopy time alot better than good housekeeping
