USA Sub-divided Avalon Forum Needed?

How many of you would like to see our forum sub-divided like the Camry forum is now. I certainly do not like having to drill into new threads to see if the subject is relevant to a 2007 model or a 2000 with 157,000 miles. I have asked the master and I think he would like to know if this is a benefit to us flagship owners.

It would not be that hard to do would it?

This is exactly what we need because as far as im concerned when im looking at a forum, I want to see threads only about my car which is a 3rd Generation. The best way would be to do it by Generations. Real Enthusiasts should know what generation their car belongs to.

I would like to see this happen as well, but I think why it is probably like this is because there is not as much "traffic" as there is in the camry forum.

I agree. Divide the forums. That will make it much easier for everyone

Agree!

I totally agree that we should split the old and new Avalon into two forums.

Totally agree! It would be great idea to split forums so as a owner of 2008 I don't have to search trhough all the posts

OK-- this might be a smaller market, but I come from an Audi A8 to an Avalon (personal car to company car that i got to choose) and I have spent a lot of time on www.audiworld.com where even A8 models for which only 2000 cars per year were built was subdivided into D2 and D3 models (1994-2003, 2004+) and there were lots of people on that forum trying to figure out the how and what of keeping their cars running right and improving them. I believe there will be more traffic if people find their forum relevant to what they drive. I seriously do not care what someone paid for a 10 year old Avalon in answer to how much I paid for a new one (example).

We can only ask and hope our moderators take us seriously and relent.

I agree with all of the previous posts. The only question I might have— Is there a need for a "general" category, one that would apply to all Avalons, not just year/generation specific?

Seriously, it seems pretty clear you guys want this forum split up, I can do that really easily. Just list the years/generations the Avalon was made.

Thank you

I agree, the stickys are lame here. This is almost a forgotten sub-forum, Ren is the Moderator here, but he has his plate full in the Corolla section and he has a baby...I know I have one also.

All suggestions are welcome. My PM box is always open as well.

Thank you.
