I wish that you would remove the soft porn ad by orange county. Not the orange county ad itself but the half naked woman touching herself. It is hard for me to flip through this magazine while my little girls are around and share the magazine with my young son. This advertisement belongs in play boy not diesel power. I love your magazine but this makes it uncomfortable for me to read in front of my family. I tried contacting you via snail mail. I got no reply. Thanks for your time.

Yeah that ad is really on the edge of what we are willing to allow.  I'll talk to our ad guys and see what we can come up with in the future.

I have to agree with you on this one.  I would also like to see the Truck nuts go away as well.  I get tired of having to try and explain what those things are hanging off the back of that truck to my 4 year old.  Besides, those are for people who have to buy a set because they don't have a set of their own!

I've learned you can't make everyone happy. Just take a Sharpie marker and black out the T&A if it bugs you, I guess.

wonder how the feminists would react if some wimmin truckers hung a likeness of the female parts off the rear bumper,i figure ww3 would happen pretty quickly from there.

Didn't have the nerve to post an actual picture of it, but if you're so inclined (and your kids aren't around) click <u>&lt;strong&gt;here&lt;/strong&gt;</u>.
