Sad is not really fair though, that kind of forum is a logical off shoot of any interest in any kind of car that had attained cult or collection status. Theres a forum like that for pretty much any diesel that is prevalent on the market. As forums go, its well structured and easy to use and navigate.
By that reasoning, I could call anyones hobby or interest in anything sad, which sometimes may be true when it goes to far, but most of the time is about good clean fun and putting your skills to use.

I like most of these forums, and MBCA as well. They each have a different "flavor" to them. People of like minds tend to congregate in the forums they most enjoy. I love reading about how people change the cars the make them their own. Its very interesting.

As for why the thread exists Tnbob, remember he started it over in the diesel performance section of peachparts first, then it was moved here. Most of the people who travel the performance section here peruse STD as well. Seems pretty logical to me.
