I don't know, those of us without jobs, (like me) can spend up to 6-8 hours some days. Ya I know, I have no life, but hey why would I want to leave such a warm and inviting place were I can express my diesel-ness! I cant afford my truck, but I can sure talk about it!! And learn from so many other savvy folks!

Who Me?

The answer to this poll should be obvious to everyone....A guy who drives a 3rd gen will spend more time in that section. A guy who drives a 1st gen in that respective area and the same goes for the 2nd gen drivers.

Toss in a few variations for Chapter members, sledullers or drag racers and the other forum for all the stuff that really has nothing to do with this forum (kinda like this poll) and you have the mystery solved

Took about three for me - you guys saved my bacon with my first-ever diesel truck, and I have to say this is the MOST friendly, non-ouchy forum I've ever see. Great people, great moderators, great subject matter

Happy New Year!

Well I'll concede your point. I am finding it quite interesting that the "other" and more general categories are receiving high marks almost to the point of overtaking the truck specific categories. Who would think that non CTD-Ram forums would produce so much traffic on a site dedicated to them. I have posted more on the other than any other forum my self. I guess its just the people who love CTD's, we are quite a unique bunch!

PS My poll may dumb but it sure is getting votes! Some of these polls die with pitiful numbers, get out the vote! Besides, I have nothing better to do.

When I first log on, I always go to the "User CP" to check post that I have been involved with, then go to the "new Posts". Then I check the "Classifieds" and back to "New Post". By going to the "New Posts", I find I've been pretty much in all of the forums at one time or another.

The answer is quite simple, and has been mentioned many time, even on this post.

This is not a Forum ( well, for the most part ), it is a FAMILY.

Thanks Lary!

Now, Y'all, lets pull up a chair and jaw awhile...........

D-C i'm glad you started this poll. It has given me a good laugh. Now i have to come up with a poll and see if the voting turn out can meet yours. And i will have "This is the bumbest poll" as an option.

Bring it on!!!

PS - Hey chainzaw, your up in Redding and Nor-cal right? what do you do? We drive through there on our way up to Washington to visit some of the in-laws once in a while, went through back in Sept. Maybe well stop off and check out your rig one of these days! Who knows when we can afford the fuel next? PM me if you want or we can talk here, it'll keep it bumped to the top!

You know the heck of it D-C? I was just thinking of a good poll last weekend and now i can't remember it to save my life! Maybe i'll try to brainstorm something random and completely off the wall that people won't be able to resist the need to vote in my poll. I will hold you and the rest of DTR in suspense until my masterpiece is created.

Talking You? You fought with my Father in the "POLL WARS" ??

I am on the edge of my seat man! I am sure Top can't wait to vote!!

Maybe it could be along the lines of - "do you like gladiator movies?"
