Four Wheeler mag dead

So from what I’m reading they won’t be offering a digital version either? I don’t see anywhere to get a digital subscription…I got my email this morning about the cancel 
Wow they were still around in print. I canceled my subscription over 10 years ago. I would liked to have seen more technical info in the mags. I still have a box full of them sitting around.
If you have a Motor Trend sub, you already know they have ever issue of Hot Rod from the beginning, in PDF on the Motor Trend site. It's easy to be mad at motor Trend, but they are only responding to the actual market out there, and trying to keep their business model viable. Change is inevitable. Look at pay phones...
I would but I can't find one
I guess technically we all carry around pay phones now...a lot of us post from them too.
I used to subscribe to Four Wheeler, 4 Wheel, and Hot Rod amongst others. At one time I was getting at least 5 mags a month.
Got married, got busy with life, made the first kid and let them all lapse. Every mag I subscribed to except 1 or 2 is gone. Hate it but again, I used to have a large gun/history/military/aviation book collection. Now I just look it up on my phone. I can usually find what I want to know online somewhere. Print media is dying.

I made it into Motocross Action Magazine one time. I was only in the background unloading my Suzuki RM 125 out of the back of my 1968 C20 Suburban (396/T400/Corp FF 14-Bolt) while they where doing a shoot with Danny "Magoo" Chandler on a brand new Honda CR250 back in 1982 at a place called Saddleback Motorcycle Park in Orange County, CA.
As somebody that grew up in the heyday of car/truck magazines it was always a dream to have a car/truck featured in a Magazine. That won't happen now.
Closest I got is my Dad's '57 was in Super Chevy Magazine in the event coverage of the Super Chevy Show at Bandimere. It was just two pics, one of the car and a second of the rare optional dash-mounted rearview mirror he installed very early in his ownership of the car. Our Nomad was featured in the National Nomad Club magazine but it still wasn't a nationally publicated magazine.

What a shame. I saw the writing on the wall when 4Wheel @ Off Road went away, or merged. I like to relax with the magazine not a computer. Nothing like turning pages. I’m out.
meh, I'm surprised they've lasted as long as they have... I haven't bought a print mag in over 25 yrs...
still have about 30, 40 old hotrods, etc in a milk crate, with my full collection of skate mags.... the difference being, my late 70's Skateboarders are actually worth $25 to $50 a piece.... heck, even some of my 80's Thrashers are worth 10 to 25...

Dude. I was there. We watched the interview and photo shoot.
That’s like saying you watched Moses carve the 10 commandments into stone to some of these young guys that never picked up a magazine.
I was not going to correct him. But I wasn't there to see it.
Guys, it was 15 commandments. Remember?

I was just going to post that.
No surprise the guy that never went to church got corrected on that one. Thanks for the insight.
