Hemmings Motor News Blog

Hemmings Motor News has been around since 1954. We're proud of our heritage, but we're also more than the Hemmings full of classifieds that your father subscribed to. Aside from new editorial content every month in Hemmings, we have three monthly magazines: Hemmings Muscle Machines, Hemmings Classic Car and Hemmings Sports and Exotic Car.

While our editors traverse the country to find the best content for those magazines, we find other oddities related to the old-car hobby that we really had no place for - until now. With this blog, we're giving you a behind-the-scenes look at what we see and what we do during the course of putting out some of the finest automotive magazines you'll ever read.

The Top 10 Hemmings Posts of 2009

Posted January 04, 2010 10:55 AM by dstrohl

It was another banner year for the Hemmings blog. We recently published our 3,000th post, traffic's increasing, and we're still having fun writing the posts and connecting with readers. And of course, we can't help but be curious as to which posts contributed to this banner year, so we're going to take a quick look back at the 10 most popular posts from 2009, as we've done the last few years. Starting with:

#10 – Le Freak, not so chic: Tour de France promotional vehicles. One surefire way to attract a lot of readers: Throw a lot of photographs and information at them. Another surefire way to attract readers: Highlight the most wacked-out French promotional vehicles ever. David TA covered both of those bases, so it's amazing this one didn't rank higher.

#9 – Save these cars: The Spring of the Estate. Another photo-filled TA post, only this time, he pushed the Abandoned Cars button. The junkyards and abandoned vehicles category is consistently tops with our readers, so no surprise here. Hey, if you bought a vehicle at one of these auctions, let us know.

And in case you're wondering about the top Hemmings blog entries that ran here on CR4, there are two winners. In terms of views, What Can You Tell Us About This Motorcycle? took first place with 542. In terms of comments, however, CR4ers loved to talk about Beater Than A Car Payment? best, offering up 35 comments.

My personal favorite, however, remains The Beer Truck That Fell Through the Ice
