Where Else Do Oppo Readers Go For Car News?

Besides here and the FP I occasionally drop by the Big 3 (MT, C&D, and R&T), though most of the time they're running the exact same stories with the exact same dry, boring rhetoric. So what interesting, quirky, or informative websites do you guys have bookmarked? Have some Bandit Bait for your troubles.

Mostly Twitter I follow pretty much everyone that has car news.

I rarely go outside FP/Oppo unless it's linked from must read. Rarely I'll go to TTAC or Petrolicious

Petrolicious isn't exactly news, but it is interesting, quirky, and informative.

Autoblog for news if Jalopnik is being boring. I'll usually stay away from AB for a few days to let stories build up.

I spend most of my time here though, I don't even go on the FP as often as I used to. Oppo is just where it's at.

Occasionally I'll see whats going on at the big three, but I get C&D and R&T in the mail anyway and we get MT at my job so I prefer to stay away from their websites to make the magazines worthwhile.

Oppo during the week when I need a break from work, and Autoblog on the weekends if I need a quick glance at any press releases or race results I may have missed.

http://carbuzzard.com/ I know one of the guys personally. So biased. Also Autoblog, though I do want to get a subscription to R&T. I like what they've been doing lately.

I usually frequent Petrolicious, Motoring Con Brio, Speedhunters, Hooniverse and occasionally Axis of Oversteer for racing news.

Most of them are less news, but more articles.

Carbuzz and the big three!

I can't stand autoblog, they have the worst trolls there, and the authors read all the same sites we do, since all the articles are basically copy/paste of other sites.

I used to be very active on TTAC, but not anymore, things have changed way too much over there since summer. And they have those stupid TTAC staff articles that you don't know who wrote them.

And Doug is more over here than on TTAC anyway.

I used to read Autoblog daily and Jalopnik occasionally, then I got tired of dry and boring safe-for-work articles and made the switch to Jalopnik. Now AB is strictly for occasional news, though I've read most of it before they get to posting it.

FP/Oppo, Pickuptrucks even if it's a bit biased and Allpar for all the Mopar news my heart desires. Then Speedhunters, TTAC, Rarely.

New website that I spent hours on when I found is http://www.autospeed.com/ Has lots of how to's and their pieces on aerodynamics are full of info but they also test, test, test

Fast Lane Daily and Autoline Daily (both on Youtube) have most of the news in video form in about 15 minutes combined a day. FLD is pertty much everything Jalopnik covers a day late, and Autoline is more industry related but I still find it interesting. Other than that, Autoblog for some articles.
