I think the General Car Conversation thread was a good idea. It has saved hundreds of new threads being started.

The dedicated EV section has to save Dave and previously bitkahuna a lot of hassle.

Just think... all the EV fanatics/nuts are grouped into one easy to manage spot lol.

I agree. The General Car Conversation thread moves up and down but CC hasn't changed much.

The GCC thread stops hundreds of unnecessary threads being started.

ha, no kidding, but i believe forums are better with conflict, not just echo chambers of like minded views.

plenty of nuts outside the ev forum.

One of which is you lol…

And yes it is a social club. In fact the word “Club” is in the sites name.

The threads in the forum are in chronological order, you just go back through the pages until you find all the threads that were responded to in a given day.

BUT, this isn’t car related, I think we should get back towards that…

Are driving impressions out of embargo? I’m not sure that they are…I don’t think I have seen any! The TX is out of embargo for sure.

oh right. The drive is not. I can’t wait for Alex On Autos to say “if your looking for an suv that can go off road…then THIS is the suv for you”. And jump into the back and close the door on himself or something dumb like that.

Interesting that they aren’t out on the GX, they released them both to the press at the same time…

Haha, that’s exactly what he will say!

I dunno. Maybe the day when the GX starts showing up at dealers. The new GX is gonna be a huge hit

land cruiser, Tacoma, and Lexus GX driving impressions will likely be available on the same day

Then we would have to play bridge lol

I also think this thread has made the core group of us who post here a lot closer...

In other news, I was driving to the office this morning just listening to music and I look down and Im going 93...in a 55 lol
