and fyi i have been a subscriber to the mag for the past 7-8yrs so i am aware of what has and has not been covered in that time, this i have just let lapse as i feel the mag is lacking in its quality both editorial and covered content.:(
an finally, this is just my opinion, like ar$eholes, everyone has got one! :p
I actually agree with everything you have said, A while ago they asked to do a feature on my old Jeep. Whilst flattered i couldnt do it as i felt the quality of the writing and fact checking is generally of a very poor standard, to the point i have two friends who had articles done extremely embarressed by the crap that was written.Quote:

Good luck to anyone who wants a feature done
I had a picture of my 110 pull starting a relatives Kenworth with a loaded trailer. I don't think they would appreciate me posting it and nor would the RTA.
It's a little over the 3.5T limit.

I'm concerned about the advertising on the side of the vehicle and the location therefore it will not be shown on a public domain.
That's a Nice Boat Andy .:thumbsup:

There is always mistakes and its just part of the media and also some journalistic license gets applied too.
As for the theory that what "they" print is embarrassing or wrong, if there's one thing I've learn't about the users on this forum is that EVERYONE has their own opinion. FULL STOP! and regardless of anything else everyone's personal opinion is always the most informed based on the most experience, the most years in the business and also is always based on "fact", and from this I have learn't that everyone always knows best...But just maybe in the case you refer to, the journalist thought they knew best? How dare a journo disagree with the "Facts" as defined by Rover lovers! MY GOODNESS WHAT A CARDINAL SIN! However, maybe when the journo published supposedly wrong information, again, it might of been an issue of journalistic license? If they paid for the photos/story, then isnt it their property and they can write/say whatever they want because they own it?
As for the claim that if we supply photos, "they" will only use it sell more magazines and fill their coffers, well SORRY it must have really taken time and effort to upload a photo! I mean maybe the magazine should pay you at a minute by minute rate, wait...with NBN it would only be second by second, for your privileged time when you uploaded a photo! Any as they own the photo now, cos they paid you for it, do you now have to refer all future comment and compliments to the magazine who own the product?
I think, quit your jibber-jabber, and politics, and if you want to show off your rover, then show it off, if not, then go jibber-jabber somewhere else! Honestly, some people never have a nice or encouraging thing to say.
I think 4WD Action is a great magazine, and I have subscribed to all of them at various times, and surprise surprise, I'm never going to agree with all that's published by them, or Pat Callinan, or Len Beadell or Mike Leyland for that matter! Not ANYONE! Im never going to agree with the amount of ads, or the layout, or the "facts", but I wonder why??? I DONT OWN IT!!! And last I looked, neither do any AULROians, so lets enjoy the mag for what we like, or buy a different one and.....forget the jibber-jabber!
Someone upload another pic of their rover and big boys toys PLEASE!
