Five for Friday Favorites: Automobiles

October 4th, 2007 · No Comments

This is the first in a series of mostly-biweekly posts where I take one of my favorite subject areas, give you a little background, and then recommend 5 of my favorite resources and blogs.

I'm a car guy.  I don't like sports, so it's the only approved manly thing I got.

I've long-since given up on the dead-tree versions of the various automobile enthusiast magazines, and frankly, their websites.  Bare in mind, I probably subscribed to Car and Driver, Motor Trend, Automobile, and Road & Track since I was 15 (until a few years ago).  The publishers time their online content ensuring its availability ONLY after the print editions have been in circulation.  The adherence to embargos and their questionable objectivity eventually encouraged me to disregard them all together.  In addition to the blogs (some of which are corporate network-affiliated), I would often visit one of the automobile-centered forums, where you would most likely find the real enthusiasts - those who have the most love (or hate) for a manufacturer, brand, or model.
