What magazines do you read?

So, I used to read a lot of magazines.
Most of them were racing and car related.
I'm hoping to subscribe to a new magazine soon because I miss getting a surprise in the mail with cool car stuff in it.

In the past, I have used:
Dirt Rider
Transworld Motocross
Thrasher
GuitarWorld
CarKulture
Hot Rod Deluxe
Superbike...I think thats what it was?
Super Street
Fast Fords

I'm looking to see what you guys read to get some ideas of whatI might subscribe to this year.
Feel free to discuss non-car related mags! I have a lot of interests.

I would prefer not to discuss the magazines I read in public....

Used to get road and track and motortrend but I've honestly cancelled all of them as I just go online I kinda miss holding the physical copies but not enough that I wan't to pay for it.

Non anymore. Havent subscribed to anything in years (Game Informer, Super Street).

Though somehow I have multiple subscriptions at the moment to Mens Health, Golf Digest, Jet, and Maxim. They even came saying last issue and havent stopped. No charges on my cards anywhere either. Its really strange

Only the one I still get in print. Read in these special circumstances where the phone, ipad or computer just don't cut it. For example the porch at cottage, in the tub while soaking, short poop that does not warrant loading up the phone (long ones are used for posting here. I may be pooping this very second).

Dsport and Super Street. I'll pick up the occasional corvette magazine as well as long as it pertains to C5 and above models.


All though the best magazine ever was GM High tech performance. It is a shame they got rid of that publication.

I can't not know that now, you bastard. I will counter that I am butt as naked on the couch right now. The cat seems put out by it and really wants to leave.

D Sport
Hot Rod
Backstreet Chopper
Muscle & Fitness
The Economist
Foreign Policy
Recoil
American Handgunner
Guitar Player
Modern Drummer
Better Homes & gardens
Cosmopolitan

and a personal guilty pleasure
