I seem to recall that there was discussion at one point about setting up threads dedicated to a specific model e.g. Civics or Accords. That way if you were curious about a specific model you could simply go straight to that thread.

Any love for that idea?

I brought this up a while ago to the admin, but they shot the idea down. My idea was less specific and for Brand more than model.

You could always just start one. There is a Mazda2 thread because I started one. It's 19 pages long.

The "learn me" threads also can contain a lot of information.

To be honest, sorting through and organizing all of that info would take manpower that we just don't have. It's a good idea, though.

If you like motorcycles then eventually you might find yourself over at ADV rider. They do the model threads. It works really well. Perhaps a miata thread might become a bit unweildy, but the Mazda2 thread has worked well. I you like a car, start the thread and keep it rolling.

Yeah, you guys are totally invited to start model specific threads. Look at what animals some of those build threads have become. That's all great info.

My Mazda5 thread turned into the Mazda5 thread.

Yep. Proof that good content makes good threads.

That would be my thought. You can always google search the website.

I usually type this into google.

This is my goto search for good specific model info without the typical fanboi BS. I love this forum.
