I don't read Popular Science or Mechanics because the magazines are riddled with ads, and finding an article listed on the cover requires thumbing through the entire magazine page by page. Plus most of the articles are short and Buzzfeed-y.

I stopped reading it when I realized 90% of the magazine was hyping some technology that had about a .2% chance of being what the magazine was selling it as.

I got an issue from 11 years ago that said "10 tech-smart cars you can't buy."

The Nissan Cube, Saab 9-3, Nissan Gloria and Ford transit are on the list.

Don't forget the Millennial Car rant they posted on youtube. I loved the old history channel. Even H2 is starting to not show actual historical documentaries.
