The past 24 hours have brought me two bad bits of information. First, yesterday I found out that Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car has ceased publication. Today, Edd China is leaving Wheeler Dealers. So, what could come next? Gizmodo sells off Jalopnik to Motor Trend?

That would actually be pretty funny.

I apologize for apparently being the bearer of bad news. But hey, don’t fret, they’re auto-converting the balance of subscriptions to Hemmings Classic Car. It’s all-American cars up to the 1960s. So, there’s that.

Sad times. I guess I’ll need to drown my sorrows in my man cave tonight under the old license plates and oil signs.

NOOOOO! I’m going to miss Edd. Sounds like Velocity is ruining the show which is a bummer.

I know everything I want to know about American pre-1970s vehicles. I don’t give a shit about ANOTHER restored 1968 Camaro, or some old fucker’s T Bucket. I want obscure Borgwards or a 5-pager about the difference Morris taxis!

Same here. I’ll be calling to ask for a refund of my balance. It’s probably only $6, but it’s a complete waste for them to send me that magazine.

Glad I am not the only one. There will always be articles about the ‘mainstream’ classic cars. I want to see the random and obscure stuff.

Motor Trend? The people whose YouTube channel pushes out Roadkill on a reasonable basis?

Actually the third bad thing has already happened. Didn’t you see the cast for the new Top Gear America?

His fixing things is why I watched the show. If they trim that down or cut it out there’s no point in watching. Then it just becomes gas monkey garage or other shows like that. Here’s a thing we bought. Here’s a few glimpses of what we did. Now we sold for a profit
