My sentiments exactly.... Truckin & Sport Truck are basicly ricer mags in my
book. Ever since they started putting hummers in, I completely lost
interest in the mags. I can appreciate a good chebby or ford that's done
nicely, but when they start putting baby blue hummers in there, that's where
I draw the line.
I guess we're intellectually superior and they cant comprehend what's rice
and whats not! :)
