I appreciate your feedback.
I am in the younger crowd but am a DarkSider, not a late-model Pontiac man. I am also very concerned about the future of the car 'lifestyle' (hope that makes sense) and see that many clubs are concerned about the long-er term state of it all.
I sincerely hope that the POCI and GTOAA stay around a long time, that newer models get equal time in their respective magazines, and BOTH SIDES pull it together: The 60-somethings who can't/don't/won't give the newer Pontiacers cars the cred they deserve, and the YOUNG GUYS who (and I have personally experienced this) are often at best indifferent towards the people who dig those boaty tanks with round (GLASS) headlights.
