Need some ideas???????

Need a name for this forum other than 4x4 disscussion. I know you all can come up with something better. Ideas? We want something that will make people want to come in here and look around.

Re: Need some ideas???????

Why confuse the situation. 4x4 discussion says it all. If you like or have a 4x4, you will come in this forum. I don't see how changing the name will make more traffic? I personally only frequent the forms that interest me which are 4x4, classifieds,& Blazers. I never touch the others.

Re: Need some ideas???????

It's not so much a traffic type deal as trying to get people to post 4x4 stuff in this forum. I move things here nearly every day from just the 67-72 board. I don't have a clue how much stuff is posted on the other truck forums that should go here.

The best answers for the 4x4 questions are here.........

Since "Long Haired Freaky 2WD People Need Not Apply" probably would not fly, I'm going to have to go with Tim on this one. Mudders Corner would only be NATURAL. Just my 1.7 cents worth. Take care, Mike

I think if you moved it higher up the board...The name is not the problem. As for a name 4x4 Tech may help also.

Re: Need some ideas???????

yeah.. the location does make it a little wierd to get here.

i bet the real problem is that there is just sooo much 73 + chevy offroad info.
the 67-72 guys need to make up for the lack of information by being with the dropped and stock guys.

maybe just adding Off-Road to the title... Off-Road & 4X4 discussion.
4X4 is such a techinical term for a lot of DIY, rock rash, and fender trimming!

my worthless .02

I never even knew that...

Is it a 67-72 thing?

Would it make any sense to have a dedicated 67-72 4x4 section?
Might make it easier to find specific info...dunno.

67/72-off road area?

Re: Need some ideas???????

Well,since this is www.67-72chevytrucks.com you`ll have that.This 4wd section addresses all 4wds,even a non-GM thread on occasion.Any 4wd related thread that gets started elsewhere gets moved to 4x4 Discussion,moreso than any other misfit post.
Whoa!!We sure have some lazy people here.Are you serious???This is soooo faaaar from the top,I`m exhausted,SHEWEE!!Pant pant gasp.Something will always be at the end.Now that you know where it is,what`s that matter?Just another reason my name "End Of The Road" would seem appropriate.Although,I don`t think the name is a problem.If you`re into 4wds,you`ll check this section.You want more action?Start a thread.Watch me...

It doesn't make any difference to me what you call it; I'm still going to check it out after I check the for sale stuff out because that's what I'm interested in.
