Hi
Thanks for that. Is there a forum home page that lists a forum index (subjects eg vehicles, trips, general off topic, etc). like every other forum i am on?

Hi Michael

And welcome to the forum. I hope you find this forum as interesting and helpful as I and thousands of others do.

What part of the country do you hail from and what is your poison for vehicles to explore this wonderful country.

Sometimes if you can't find a forum entry about your topic you can ask in a thread if it has been covered. Undoubtedly it will have been discussed but new people are always appearing and it is expected the same questions will be asked over. And sometimes there are new answers along with new technology.

Cheers

Change the selection in the box at the top to show threads by response time
and change page length to 100 threads.

When wanting info as suggested do a search on relevant headings.

EG Satfones gets asked about at least once a week, Tyres every 3rd day.

Get the drift

Or just look back through last 5 pages of threads.

The FAQ is a button in the box top left of the forum home page. You can only order by thread ID or by most recent post. There are no other groupings that I know of. Other forums have the subject areas predefined and you post under the subject. This forum doesn't do that. It's a good forum none the less. Mike

Thanks everyone, that has answered my questions. I might try and stick with it but it is a very difficult user interface for a forum. There is a wealth of info here just a bit difficult to find.
