It's been on a steady decline for the past 20 years. When I joined in 2004 there was at least a page of threads that were either new threads or had new responses. Even while we were still on the old forum last December, the number of new/updated threads had dwindled to less than a handful a day, and most of those were being kept alive by the usual pot-stirrers.
Now most of the usual pot-stirrers have gone "full old man," taken their balls and bats, and gone home, because of the new forum.
After two months I feel I've given the new site a fair shake, and I'm coming down on the side of the grumpy old men who passed judgement on day one. I don't like it. and if you know me I'm one of the most open minded, least fussy, most adaptable people you'll ever meet, so that's saying something.

Agree, I miss the old format a lot.
I tow a 7k car hauler with quads, which is feather-light as far as this sub-forum is concerned, but it was still my favorite read.

I donโt miss the old format at all. I think the new format is a massive improvement. Itโs like getting a new microwave oven; it works a little differently and you have to get used to it. The improvement in the search function alone (as evidenced by the resurrection of a ton of 5+ year old posts lately) is well worth the change. I say bravo and thank-you!
I have no insight into why โTow Vehiclesโ may be experiencing comparatively less use. Might just be tow vehicles are less on the mind in the winter.
