To me BLVD just has better pictures that show more detail of the rides but it is hell of expensive. It also has to many ads. I thought everyone also knew that Lopez sold the mag, I heard that the new owners are based in Chicago.
And about the showing nothing but surenos shit. I dont feel it has to do where a magazine is located at cause Teen angels is based in Rialto and in the early issues the majority of pics and placas were from nortenos. Those were in the earlier issues and up untill like the mid 90's. now 99% is on some scrapa tip. My homies shipped out a grip of flickas of Nortenos in Fresno and not one got shown. I know a homie that has a grip of older Lowriders from the eighties and they have more ppl in them from Salinas and san jo than anywhere. does that mean that they had the best rides no not nessecarily its just that that is where they wanted to shine there light. cause most lowrider HAPPENINGS (thats what they called them back in the day not car shows) where going down. Cruising was big down south, but up north ppl from frisco to Tulare county would all meet up in one spot to have a lowrider happening. I know when I was a little morro I my jefe took me to one I have pictures of a Happening in Fresno at the Rodeing Park. You see those happenings got more attention back in the day than cruising, now the trailer queens get more attention than anythang. It just is where will the magazine get the most money if they shine their light.
Honestly I think it is because overall when Non-bangers think of "gang members" they think of a bald person with oversized changos or dickies and some locs. And teenangels will get more customers if they show what the overall nonbanger population, which is the ones with money and the majority, will buy. Honesty everyone knows that when nonbangers think of cholos they automatically think of a pelon from LA. plain and simple. Like there arent any cholos in San Francisco, San Jo, Decoto, Fresno, San Diego, Orange County, or any other varrios in California.
