  1. The whole " thinking with your heart, rather then your head" attitude is alive and well in this thread. Not a bad thing, but sooner or later you have to face the cold hard facts. Seems TRJ business model got them in a hole they can't get out of, continued publication will only dig that hole deeper. It is , what it is.

    I have been hesitant to comment on the state of TRJ and I understand and sympathize with the situation however, I paid good money for a great publication which is now in jeopardy of going away. Will we see a new issue or a refund.

  5. I keep checking this thread just to see if there's been any change... just out of curiosity.

    This whole thread is like giving mouth to mouth to a week old corpse.
    But it is funny at times...

    If there was enough money for a refund,they'd probably put out another issue. But, thankfully, your check is in the mail. Or maybe Fedex or UPS or possibly one of those reliable shipping companies. Anyway, it should be there soon.

    TRJ is, without question, the best hot rod magazine ever published. I don’t know many people in this industry or that have lived this passion that would argue against that. It’s pretty cut and dry to me.

    From a business perspective, they made mistakes… obviously… huge ones… and the legacy of it all has taken a hit.

    But none of this drama of the last year can take away what TRJ achieved in my mind.

    Also, if you take joy in the failure of others… or the misery of others… well, that says something about you… to me, anyway…
