Should there be a V6 column?

I'm just wondering how many people out there feel the same way I do about this topic. There are some great Mustang magazines out there that run the occasional great V6 column. Unfortunately it isn't constant enough for me to want to subscribe. I feel there should be a small section each month dedicated to V6's in the magazines dominated by GT's. That is the only thing stopping me from subscribing. I have no use for a mag with nothing but GT's as I own a 2004 V6. I'll just buy the individual issues that run the special column. Anybody feel the same way? I think it would be a wise investment for the magizine. It's fanbase would increase.
 
When do you see the great V6 articles? Usually when one of the aftermarket companies that sponsor the magazines donates a V6 part to them. So it all basically comes down to what the sponsors are doing. Get more parts in the aftermarket, then you may see an increase in V6 articles.

As for V6 feature cars. Most are more show than go, so I'd be kind of scared to see more in magazines and the image V6 owners get from them. :shrug:
 
once their is enough following and enough money to be made by putting v6 sections in the mags they will but as of now there is simply not enough money to be made, you only see the occasional bit of info and thats pretty darn good.... there is just not enough interest as of yet.
 
Ford themselves do not see the six as a performance car, why would a magazine? It would be nice to see more sixers in a mag, just as it would be nice to see more companies making some serious products for the six banger. But I don't think anything like that is going to happen.
 
in the last 6 years there have been MAJOR advancements in the v6 world now you can get just about anything you want..... its all out there you just have to know where to look for it. There are still many things lacking once more than a couple v6s start to break into the 10s we will get more coverage it just takes time and usually v6 owners dont have alot of money so that takes even more time lol. Ford weekends are getting more and more exposure to the v6 world its just going to take more time... it will eventually get a good bit of exposure just not any time to soon.
