End of year update for everyone:
The final issue of the year will be coming out in December and it is packed full of show coverage from the year. The reason for it being pushed to next month – we were hoping that UPS would be able to take over before next year but it just isn’t possible. So, the final issue will be shipped out in December and the cover is definitely worth the wait!
As for this year – We sincerely apologize for all of the problems. Each and every day we are re-shipping out copies of the magazine that never made it into the customers’ hands. It is a shame that USPS did not help us get this sorted out or offer to help pay for the shipments that completely disappeared once they were in the care of USPS. I have tried my best to keep up but when so many things go wrong, it is hard to keep trudging through it. But I think we can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.
It has been so difficult for all of us to be able to keep up with shipping issues because of the amount of emails, text messages, social media contacts, website contacts, etc. We have created a form that you can fill out that will allow us to keep track of each and every shipment problem and get it resolved quickly. The good news is that next year it will all be UPS and TRACKABLE! So we can finally say goodbye to the terrible USPS system. The link for the order issues is here: https://tally.so/r/xXXpZk (we will also put it on the website and in the comments below)
On to the good news!
2026 = Time for a major change and upgrade! The new year brings a new way to get these magazines to you because USPS just cannot seem to get it together. The 2026 Quarterly Subscription is now available – you may purchase your subscription here: https://minitruckinmagazine.bigcartel.com/product/2026subscription
This means that each of the 4 magazines will be sent via UPS and each will have tracking numbers. It took time to get this worked out so that we weren't having to charge crazy amounts for shipping. Thankfully, UPS had the ability to really help us out. This will cut down tremendously on the number of copies of the magazine that are lost in transit.
I told y’all to hang in there and just bear with me as we tackled some of the most challenging parts of starting from scratch. In a year and a half, we have come a long way and next year is looking more and more promising. Rome wasn’t built in a day – apparently neither is a magazine company. Getting USPS to understand what they have done to this magazine will never happen, but they are very aware of every single problem we have had. We will have more announcements soon. I appreciate each and every one of you who have hung in there with us.
2026 = Time for a change! We will NOW be shipping UPS instead of USPS! So no more lost magazines as these will have tracking numbers for each...
