Now there is a dedicated truck performance site that all makes can come to like what used to be on LS1Tech. That is the goal anyway.

My reply from another thread:
The fact is, our truck segment on LS1TECH is very popular. Unfortunately, we could never get any big name truck sponsors/manufacturers to join the site simply because they viewed LS1TECH as a "Camaro site". No matter how busy or popular the truck forums were, they only saw the entire site and labeled it as a Camaro/Firebird/Corvette site. They have every reason to do so, because that makes up the majority of our membership over there.
So, this kept the truck forums from growing. Had we allowed them to expand, eventually the truck forums would be MUCH larger than the LS1 related forums. Think about how many performance trucks exist vs vehicles with LS1 engines. The numbers are staggering in comparison.
With the new site, the truck performance forum can GROW. It can also form its own identity in the media and racing world. We fully expect this site to grow into something much larger than LS1TECH. The industry is there, the market is there, and the truck sales are there. Sure, it might take a while, but we have big plans in store.
So, please quit thinking you got the boot from LS1TECH. That isn't even close to the truth. We recognized the need for a stand-alone performance truck site in order to allow it to grow its potential, and here it is.

Thanks Nine, but one question!!?? Can I change the view on this thing yet. This darkscale gray is killing me. Maybe some LS1 colors for old time sake? And can you make it so the we can view the postie's name above their post instead of on the side of their post??
I'm still trying to find everything 
give it time boss, the dumb questions will subside
