While we have a place for both flavors of Auroras it might be helpful for members to have a place to request mechanical help for other vehicles. While I understand we like to keep things Aurora specific, I have seen many people looking for a place to ask questions about other cars. What does everyone else think about this?

Around the Water Cooler = everything off-topic, right? I've seen many "other vehicle" topics posted there, which is exactly what that area is intended for - anything. I am reluctant to create a new section of the forum, that will take up space and maybe not be used all that much. JMO

I am reluctant to create a new section of the forum, that will take up space and maybe not be used all that much. JMO I agree with you scottydl. You can post a question in the water cooler as many already do. You can also go to a vehicle specific forum with expertise on the problem with your particular model. I know we do have some technical brains on this forum but if I had a problem with my MOPAR for example, I would rather have it addressed at a MOPAR site. Besides, there is no reason to develope another department of redundency department when the info is already available else where. As far as our site's "mechanicals" I would like to see more ACNA members doing a little searching on their Aurora problem before they post a question that has been answered several times over already. We could reduce our own department of redundency department. ;D |

What could be the problem? ;D  |

I feel bad for whoever actually runs a search for that now I can just imagine someone taking their classic out, presumably with a bad tranny, holding the pedal to the floor until it hits the limiter and starts wondering why its not working.  |

Lets just hope they get fished out of the gene pool before they are allowed to touch an Aurora.  |

Apocalypse, does it make sense why we would prefer not to create another new section of off-topic threads? We got a little off track here (as usual) and I don't want it to seem like your suggestion was totally disregarded. |

This thread turned out to be much more entertaining then I thought it would. |
