This forum is very quiet these days. Why?

This is diesel discussion related, please do not remove.

A few years ago, this forum would fill up the front page with new posts within 24 hours, easily.

Now, it seems that less than 30% of the front page is posts from that day.

What do you think is going on here?


I was talking with another diesel friend recently and he was pretty sure it was due to the economy and fuel prices.

Me, I am more concerned that people are not willing to 'deal' with these ancient beasts and the newer diesels are much less serviceable. -are the fixable diesels disappearing? It does tie in with economic factors since there is less incentive to fix your own car and use alt. fuels if things are going well.

You could go to any junkyard on the west coast any given day 7 years ago and find a w123..... not the case anymore.


What do you all see across the country and abroad?
