End of an era
I still remember my reaction when I first watched Dutch Mandel on AutoWeek on Speed-"Get that guy some coffee!'' But I soon came to enjoy his subtle, monotone delivery. It's a shame to see the show end. At least we still have the magazine. Keep up the good work.

I just finished watching the last AutoWeek on Speed and was struck by the memories brought back by seeing Leon Mandel. I liked the way he presented himself: no puff, no B.S., a car guy for regular car guys. I'm lucky to have been exposed to the knowledge and wit. Party on.

A dandy job wrapping up AutoWeek on Speed, and the But Wait closer was terrific. Thanks for a great ride. But I think Dutch looked a lot better with a bare face than those whiskers everybody is wearing.
