Do you guys think Off-Road is featuring too many Prerunners and desert trucks, or not enough of them? Would you rather see more trail rigs, or high-speed desert toys? We want to know!

Never enough Prerunners. That is the whole reason I subscribed is because Off-Road was the only widely avaiable magazine that feature Prerunners.
Let your other mags take care of the crawler crowd or the mud crowd. Let us desert rats keep seeing people that build and own the most awesome trucks on the planet!!!

Yeah Off Road definitely needs more prerunners with more coverage on the local desert racing scenes such as MDR and MORE. More indepth articles on serious off road equipment, not just lift kits for big trucks

We will NEVER stop prerunner coverage in Off-Road magazine. Grass roots racing such as MORE and MDR lets readers see that they don't have to have $$$$$$ sponsors to compete and have fun.
We could use more prerunners and other trucks to photograph and write about. Contact kevin.blumer@primedia.com if you've built a truck you think would look great in the magazine. Your truck DOES NOT need to be a desert racer, either.
Besides the grass roots racing, we're still going to include travel/adventure features that show readers cool places to go, whether they own a prerunner, trailrunner (4x4), or anything else that will travel off-road!

more prerunners!!! I have been off roading since the Old Mint 400 days and spent many enjoyable times in the desert with my dad watching off road races. We even ended up building/racing a 5-1600 car. The latest issue with the red 66 ford was probably one of your best ever.

I didn't know there were any mags that put any time into prerunners. Thats the only reason I picked the damn thing up a month ago. Now I am selling my car to get one. Thanks a lot off-road.

Just change the name to 'Prerunner' already.
Nothing wrong with being a prerunner centered zine. There is a need for one. It is just a little misleading for those looking for other forms of off-roading.
I am not into the trailer only rigs either. I am just a common guy who takes his slightly modified daily-driver off-roading on the weekends with the kids and friends up in the coastal rain-forested mountains of the Pacific Northwest. We do some mud, some rocks, some snow, some sand, and log crawling as we maintain our trails and forests.
Change the name and be done with it.

There are plenty of 4x4 mags, show-wheeler mags and dirt bike/ATV/UTV mags out there. Off-Road Mag currently covers a mix of off road vehicles, and the ONLY ONE which covers 2wd off road vehicles. At this time, this is the only venue for those of us who understand the difference btween "lifted" and "long travel". Granted that 2wd off road vehicles may not be understood very well by people who live away from the open deserts of the southwest, but I am constantly amazed at the level of interest on off road groups from people who live in other parts of the country and world. I too read Four Wheeler for info on 4x4s and rock crawling. I left this mag before when it became "Chrome-Plated Pseudo Off-Road Gizmo Marketplace" Mag. Please don't let it happen again.
The world is full of those who spell "Cool" with an "F"!
