Love it.....

How many different ways can we as a community "dispose" of this rag?

[Scott_F]

If I see any at the store.... They will no doubt be moved to either the upper most or lower most shelf in the very back and a "Teen Beat" will be placed in front.

And that's all I got to say about that!

Done. Anybody else?

BACK OUT ON STORE SHELVES!!!

This issues' topics:

How to Break Your Truck

Catheter "Installation" (though not graphic, the pics are pretty suggestive with a female model)

I saw this because I saw an article about Huckfest 2012. After a read through, I couldn't believe what trash I was reading. This casts the off-road community into even more of a hole of mischief making hoodlums

I actually wrote an email to my local grocery store about the issue and asked if they could pull the rag from their shelves. We'll see what response I get

My thoughts are they are advertising porn movies and have a product spotlight on whisky sex lube, do off-road companies really want to advertise in a magazine promoting those?

[Armistice]

They had some product called "Whisky Dick."

After a quick Google search, that's prob what you're talking about. I didn't really read the little description in the mag

I guess Whiskey Dick sex lube is not Beaver approved?

Well, the store didn't pull the mag. This it the email I got:

Though there are people that don't like guns, alcohol, tobacco, etc., the problem isn't that. It's a hobby and a sport that is portraied incorrectly and negatively
