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



Hmmm....I think we need to see this video....

love the mag. just my 2cents but, in the show coverage there is always a huge picture of the chicks that won the bikini contest and these tiny pictures of the truck that attended. last issue there was three pictures of that chick in the yellow bikini and they were all the same picture. nobody cares about the chick in playboy's daily routine.

also,when you write up the articles for the features there is mention of mods that arnt pictured. its a let down to read about the sick back half and no picture to follow it up.

another thing is there is always a shot of the same truck that hasnt changed all year sometimes 2 years that went to every show in the area and is in every show feature. its great that they are supporting the scene by going to every show. but give the guy in the background with the sick frame work a shot. i also feel that there is a lot of wasted space in the show features sometimes theres like 5 pictures per page and they are small pictures.set the show features up like they did in tailgate mag.the last show feature that i enjoyed was the last reso. show full of pictures.

havent seen a 720 on the cover in such a long time let alone a feature.

keep up the good work mike and crew

8 and 10 are alse great ideas. more angles is more intresting to me ( even though sometimes the one side never being shown is to cover something). i feel like if its going to be featured it should be nice at any angle....ive seen a truck get cover of trucking magazine that only had two wheels that made it in time for the shoot and you could clearly see through to the other side that it was stock wheels. thats kinda skanky... if bitch is gunna be bad... bitch better be bad all the way around or put it in underconstruction!



I agree 100%. I have seen cover vehicles that were missing parts. The best example is the DIB nissan missing a lug nut. I mean damn! Then when you look at the features of some of these vehicles they either never show the engine (possibly cause its bone stock or theres something thats not being shown. There has been several times where the interior shots are a joke. For example i remember seeing a s-10 that when they took a pic of the speaker box behind the seat, the dude had 1 orion woofer and 1 fosgate woofer! I have seen features where the truck had interior work that everything was done but they havent done the door panels yet! Things like that shouldnt make the cover

I have always thought that it would be a rad idea to do a month dedicated to some of the old underconstruction rides that have been finished.. I know that a lot of them do not get finished but over the years at 2 UC's a month there should defenetly be some finished ones out there..

There are so many trucks that I think are INSANE that I have never seen again..

here's my in put. I've said it before and ill say it again. stop putting the center pull out poster on the opposite page as the feature. a lot of people like hanging the center posters on there garage walls. but when and (if) you go back to read the entire feature you gotta pull that poster off the wall to read the rest. so instead of the feature on the opposite put a companies add or something else hardly anyone cares about. just my $.02

^^^^^^X2

less S10s

how about getting rid of the the 36 pages of ads...man that pisses me off

havent read minitruckin in a while, but they used to have like 8 pages of aim crap. i used to just rip em out. also like to see more under construction rides.
