We just received a letter from Crain Communications letting us know that my subscription to Autoweek will not be renewed as the 11/4 issue will be the final print magazine.

61 years and it’s over.

And so it goes.

I’m pretty bummed.

I was bummed when they went from weekly to bi-weekly but it made sense. So it was only a matter of time since it is a magazine I’ve never seen on newsstands.

Multiple monthly car/moto mags have folded or reduced their output in the last 2 years but quite a few high quality quarterly publications have started in their place.

I hate this so much. Autoweek was probably the best of the major car mags left.

Hemmings Sports & Exotic car magazine was discontinued and I was bummed about that as well. They still have their classic car and muscle car magazines as well as their original hemmings classic car and parts book too

A guy I know worked there, said on social media he’s getting moved around in the company but still sad.  Hope it works out for him.
