    another thing that sets us apart from a lot of other forums, our core group is always open to new people...for instance:

    our core group (at least in the lounge and general discussion):
    a1awind ..me
    Stormin Norman
    Fat Tedy
    krashkadillak
    TBirdsps
    Silverfox
    Rev..(when he is single..he is on more)
    Handy andy
    snooterbuckets
    jeffery almen
    wixom
    safari
    whatever screen name Cliff is going by this week...
    ford fellow.
    steve-ed
    eagle
    ......................................
    unlike other sites, our core group is always growing with new members....
    Fannie
    90merc
    bowser1989
    bigbarneycars
    not to mention a ton of great guys that have been here for years, that show up periodically!

    we have discussions that have a habit of getting waaaaay off track. but unlike lots of other forums....if a new person chimes in, we fill them in and get them to join the discussion.
    and if somone asks a question about a wagon....we answer ...instead of blowing them off with a "use the search button newbie!"

    my point....
    we are never too busy to help,
    never to busy to make new friends,
    and we are never too busy to help fan the flames of interest in longroofs!!!!

    we don't care about post count....
    we dont care about expertise....
    we dont care about race, location, or religion any of that!
    we dont care what type of wagon you drive...or if you even have one as long as you love them or think you might!!!

    Good for us.......

    Speaking for myself, I need to pitch in more in the 'Welcome Wagon section. Shouldn't be up to just a few regulars to say hello and welcome to the new peoples. Been a bit busy lately with work (which is good), but I need to take a bit of time for new intros.......

    I always just click on "new posts" and it tells me what's been put up since my last visit. It lists 'em all, regardless of forum. We're such a chatty bunch, I can't always check every one out, but I try to.

    Agreed. Since just about every car manufacturer made something resembling a station wagon, we're kind of like the United Nations here, very multicultural. So tolerance is a key aspect of that.

    (Please don't take that analogy too literally, it will fail under close scrutiny...;) )
