Road & Track Review
|
|
|
I first picked up an issue of R&T at the news stand when I was in the sixth grade. I was always into models, Lego's, drafting and other technical hobbies and the detail sheet in R&T's reviews fascinated me with all the stats and the cutaway drawing of the vehicle- it still looks very similar today, thirteen years later due to the great layout.
The journalists, photographers, artists and editors at Road & Track are leaps & bounds ahead of the staff at MotorTrend or Car&Driver (I subscribe to all three, but if I could have only one it would easily be R&T). They frequently have guest writers and racers help with articles and reviews, which is a plus. And one of the things I like most is very little SUV/Truck coverage.

Road & Track Review

Road and Track is like the tortise and the hare. It doesn't move with lighting speed from trend to trend as some other publications. But its slow and methodical evolution yeilds a contemporary classic. It's format and photography are faultless. The editorials are engaging, particularly Peter Egan's. And no one can match the prowess of technical editor Dennis Semantis. Quite possibly the best automotive magazine in the industry.

Road & Track Review

Road & Track is arguably the best automotive magazine out there. It has the best photography, and covers a wide range of intriguing cars. It provides excellent coverage of the latest from Ferarri and Porche, along with great articles on classic race cars.
Where R&T slacks, however, is on its coverage of every day cars. Your not going to find too much about the Ford Focus in this magazine.
If you are looking for a magazine to learn about the standard cars on the auto market, go for Motor Trend, but if you are looking for a magazine that covers exotic cars the car-lovers way, this is the magazine for you

Road & Track Review
|
|

In my opinion Road & Track is just okay. While they test the
newest cars and always have the lastest news on the auto industry, the magazine entirely lacks humor and is plain boring. By itself its okay but not when compared to its rivals such as Motor Trend, and R&Ts sister magazine Car & Driver- which is in my opinion the best by far. Also, Road & Track probably doesn't test half as many cars a year as Car & Driver does, and they don't test SUVs, minivans or pickup trucks as do its rivals. Road & Track's writing style can also tend to get boring without an ounce of humor, just strictly 'technical' stuff. The editors are also seem to be afraid to criticize poor performing vehicles, instead giving praise to every car they test.
If the traits of Road & Track forementioned above don't bother you in the slightest, then feel free to subscribe- but make sure you purchase a newsstand copy first just to make sure you like it- otherwise buy Car & Driver or at least Motor Trend.
