Dec. 5 - "I never worry about people stealing my ideas. If it were an original one, I'd have to stuff it down their throats anyway." While our idea of combining cars and travel to build a magazine is something we love, it is far from original. You just have to check out Rich Truesdell's Automotive Traveller web site.The web site and blog present a contemporary mix of current and nostalgic-driven items and discussions. You can also access four past issues of the Automotive Traveller online magazine. Rich's past adventures range from touring Berlin in a Trabant before the wall came down, to running around Peru and Ecuador in a Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano.
The online magazines are on hiatus at the moment, but Rich is not. Far from it. When I spoke with him earlier this week, he was planning a European trip for next spring that would take in some of the less tourist-oriented locations in Eastern Europe. It is obvious that Rich is an automotive enthusiast in every sense of the word. We cannot wait to see what he comes up with
next.
Far from being a competitor, we have been talking with Rich about content sharing and collaboration over future projects. It is a big world out there and there's an inexhaustible supply of great stories, so there is plenty of room for everyone. Check out and bookmark his Automotive Traveller web site when you've got some time. Be cautioned, though, you just might invest an hour or more.
