It was also interesting and made perfect sense. I don't have anything that anyone would want to look at or read about... but it certainly was interesting reading about how it's done.

Thank you!
Well he took the time to ask, it's the least I could do.

People have funny misconceptions on how this all works. Do you know why Jackass got the cover this month? Because last month we had a 5th gen and because the shot fit the cover, was well composed, and let us run the necessary cover blurbs.. nothing more complicated than that.

Next month the car that got the cover was the same story. Except it won because it was black with white stripes and the stripes just "popped" better than the other black cars.

But to be honest, the biggest factor is geography. Also, like some women, some guys think there cars are hotter than they really are. lol

Lastly, money invested has little to do with it. We've turned down EXPENSIVE cars that just didn't look right in favor of low buck rides that were cool.
