    I like it. Kinda a fill in the blank. Should also contain whether the rear is stock or a custom width.

    It could be a "SUB" forum in the Cosmetic Forum. The Big Cheese gets to make those decisions though:D I like the idea and since we get alotof Tire/wheel questions I do see the need......(y) (y)

    I could set this up and then always move the posts to the tech forum if it does not work out. Should it be just for wheels and tires, or should it include springs shocks, etc?

    I say just wheels and tires. Its probably one of the most asked questions.

    Personally, I think we have too many forums here already. Why does each topic need its own individual forum? Anything pertaining to Mavericks/Comets should be able to be discussed in the General Discussion forum, and anything else should be in the off-topic forum. The For sale/Wanted forum is a good idea too, but many of the others are simply unnecessary.
    I mean, where does it end? How about a forum for windshields? A forum for Exhaust systems. How about a forum for seats? For Doors? How about seperate forums for each model year? All the '71 Maverick owners should post in the '71 Forum. How about a forum for steering wheels? How about one for transmissions? And one for Air fresheners? Maybe one for springs & shocks. Another for brakes. How about one for paint and color codes? Where does it end?....

    individual forum makes it better for new members and old..... if you have a problem you can look in the tech forum and you wont have to see all the post about someone took there mav to the burger joint and ran into new mav or comet…when looking and it keeps them from being pushed so far down no one ever sees it again :49: ..same for wheels someone wants to see what others use what wheel looks good to them on our type of cars what backspace they use …I think when pics are posted giving info as to what size and Backspace and if there rear-end is stock or if its had mods :2cents: :2cents:
