Default Poll 350/450-H discussion threads

350 and 450-H share a lot of things but a few things make the hybrid bit unique. Also the 450-H sub category gets less posts/reads. At the same time if the reader (most likely based on the vehicle they own) regards the discussion is about their model.

I would like to solicit members input on this issue

Given that the drivetrain is quite different between the 450h and the 350, it makes sense to keep a separate Hybrid subforum, in my humble opinion.

Question is not about merging them .. they will remain separate.

The question is about expecting members to post in the right forum or expecting the mods to keep moving threads.

It really depends on the specific thread. Anything to do with powertrain or features specific to the "h" should be in the Hybrid sub-forum, but general stuff common to both can be in either (but probably makes more sense in the regular RX forum).

People on a lot of forum sites tend to post in the more active forum for visibility so there probably need to be threads moved into the hybrid subforum but that defeats the purpose of having specific subfora. Generally I'd agree with the reply above as there are some topics that are common to both.
