I would not go by years, judgeing on the old board traffic, but just a place for questions about the largest models in all years. That way you don't get air brake questions and such mixed in with the smaller trucks confuseing people. There aren't all that many of us running Class 8 (33,000 lb and up) trucks but still there are some.
Feetstars, Later S series, 8000 and 9000 (9670 etc) and the larger R's and K's.
There are a lot of things that the biggest trucks have the smaller one don't (air wipers, or air systems in general, for example) that would clutter up the fourms dedicated to the smaller models in a truck line.
We had it on the old site, and it would ofter go a long time between posts, but was a place that people with the larger models could meet and discuss without there posts drifting to page 2 or 3 before someone sees them.

Good job on the new forum. Now, if over time you could add a little color like the last iteration, the forum would be just a little "warmer". is it possible that "GENERAL" for discussion on anything might be back? Maybe it is here and I missed it.

We have a "General Forums" http://www.oldihc.org/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=9
Do any of the forums in this category fill the need?

The "Modification" forums are there. They are sub-forums under the appropriate categories.
http://oldihc.org/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=29
http://oldihc.org/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=28
http://oldihc.org/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=30

These are just the starters. If some one wants more, just let me know.

i like the way the modified trucks posts work as a subset under the type of truck. in case anyone cares.....
