As FP goes down the shitter, I was wondering what sites, besides the great and holy Oppo, Opponauts were reading. Once I get a list of what sites the most of y’all are reading, I’ll post it. Here’re my preferences:
Live and Let Diecast!, Oppo’s diecast sister site.
The Lamley Group, a diecast site focusing on reviews and news.
Bring a Trailer, an auction site which conglomerates interesting listings from CL, ebay, etc.
Hemmings, a classic car classified site.
Barn Finds, a site similar to BaT which focuses on classic project cars.
Hooniverse, a site similar to what FP used to be.
Road and Track, home of new car reviews that aren’t full of themselves.
What are your favorites car sites, Oppo?

Also, did you know that Hooniverse was started by people who left Jalopnik ages ago when again, “it wasn’t what it used to be”.

Actually, no. But from what I’ve gathered from my last post, Jalopnik of 2013 which I knew wasn’t as good as the Jalopnik of Murilee Martin and Ray Wert. However, Hooniverse have kept up with the Jalop content, whereas FP slacked off.

I never look at Autotrader or Carmax, but spend wayyyy too much time on CL.

D’oh! I visit CC frequently, but forgot to add it to my list. It’s like AteUpWithMotor, but with a readable length.

I miss the Jalopnik of 2011, even if 5.0 was shit for a while.

I too love LaLD and used to post frequently, but school got too hectic to spend time taking good photos.

And the Jalopnik of Wert was not as good as the Jalopnik of Spinelli, Lieberman, Johnson, and Martin.
Time marches on in cyclical fashion.

I do believe that Jalopnik has gotten worse over the years, but the Jalopnik of Okulski, Hardigree, Torch, and Mate was at least somewhat interesting. Now Torch, Raph, and Doug are the only good writers left.

It’s ok, definitely needs more work and a lot more people, but its neat and fun.
