Last Call for Donations -- Help Send Car Buyer's Notebook to the NY Auto Show!
Updated: Only $400 to go!
We just received another $100 donation and are looking forward to ending this annoying promotion just as much as you are!
We're leaving for the NY Auto Show tomorrow morning and are making a last call for donations -- specifically, to pay for three nights in a hotel.
To date, donors have enabled us to pay for transportatation, and to buy some much-needed tech gear. The only thing that's left is to pay for the room. And in New Yawk City, human warehousing costs about $500 every 72 hours.
Of the 3,000 auto journalists from around the world, the Notebook may be one of the only ones relying on reader support to get to the show -- and we thank y'all in advance!
The Notebook is an independent, self-supporting news site dedicated to covering the auto industry. You can read more about us here, and the specifics about donating are here.
If you've read some of our stories, you can see we're much more than a typical blog. While we do link to plenty of topical material, there's also plenty of real research, interviews, data-driven stories and trend analysis -- worthy of your time and financial support!

We've received a major, unsolicited donation from one unknown reader, who described what we're trying to accomplish better than we can ourselves. His comments are
here.
For you, this is an opportunity to support independent auto journalism at its finest -- and get involved in the process at the same time.
The Notebook invites all readers -- not just donors -- to submit ideas for coverage and questions for auto execs, stuff that can only be gathered at a live event.
So check out the NY Show's website, see what's on tap, and feel free to send in your suggestions for how we can make this site even better. And if you're so moved, make a donation!
