Mopar Action gone again?

[440 4 speed]

I just got a Hemmings Muscle magazine in the mail yesterday with the note that the next issue will be the last. Apparently I'll get Hemmings Motor News for a few months afterwards to fill the remainder of my Muscle subscription. Car mags used to pile up at my house since I subscribed to so many, but within the course of a few years they're all gone. I too let my MCG subscription go a couple years ago, Rob's writing style grated on my nerves and after subscribing for decades I don't need anymore of their tee shirts. Now I am pondering if I should resubscribe to help a little with my car magazine withdrawl symptoms. If I do I'll hold off until summer when I can see them at a show and save paying shipping on the tee shirt if I decide to do that.
If out of all of the magazines I've got over the years I could choose one to return, I'd take Mopar Action though. Muscle Car Review would be my second choice.

I still have MCG stuff from the days when it was like a newspaper. Have been a subscriber seems like forever. Bought subscriptions for our two sons for about 15 years or more. Last year they said they had lost interest so we dropped their subscriptions.
In 2014 their families, nephew and family, and friends went to Muscle Cars at the Strip. I went to the MCG booth and asked I think it was Rob if I could pick up my t shirt. This was even after I said I had been paying for three subscriptions. He said the t shirts were for people buying subscriptions at the show. But I could pay the mailing costs and they would send me one. Never bought a t shirt.
My subscription runs out next month, probably won’t renew. Think I have been purchasing since 1989 possibly. Have almost all of the issues.

Old issues of magazines are a gold mine of tech info but they take up a lot of real estate. When I got my first PC I bought a program to catalog all of the tech articles, could access the info several ways so I tossed the magazines.

Problem is the program was in DOS which I couldn't access after several Microsoft "upgrades" Grrr.

Paperbacks got your back. Anything electronic can disappear just like that.

I have Mopar Action magazines dating back to 2000 when I bought this car:

I learned so much from that magazine ! Mopar Muscle was pretty good but MA was tops. I credit Rick Ehrenberg for many things that I now believe including the superiority of the torsion bar suspension.
I refer back to years old issues for things I do. Recently it was an article on rebuilding alternators, the adjustable voltage regulator I now have and the Lithium battery that I am considering.
There were times that RE seemed stubbornly fixated on something that didn't pan out, one time it was the warning against using the disc brake steering knuckles from the 1973+ B-F-M-J-R body cars. He stuck to the belief that the 3/8" taller height of them would lead to over-angling the upper ball joint and ball joint failure. This was disproven long ago yet he stuck by his assertion. It wasn't like I abandoned my trust for him after that but I can't help but start to question something once I see someone repeat an error that was pretty obvious to others.
He loved to defend the ballast resistor system. He was a staunch opponent to rear disc brakes too for a LONG time. He despised the "Green" bearings for 8 3/4" axles based on a perceived high rate of early failure. I'll admit, I installed rear disc brakes entirely for appearances but the sealed "Green" bearings have been in my axle for years, maybe 11? I corner hard with the car and they are holding up fine. I've put maybe 6000 miles on them which as I write this I realize how pathetic that is for only driving this car that little in that long a time!
