This is still off topic - sorry.

But back in 2008 when Hurricane was struggling before it was sold to the new ownership, there were a few threads about the issues and some much-needed venting. Nothing bad about the cars, but the urban legend, and envy, continues.....

Couldn't have said it better myself. When the decision was made all those years ago to keep it private we knew there would be fallout. I think the resulting experience for the owners could not have been better. Everyone felt "safe" making whatever comments they wanted without fear of some troll taking things into the weeds. I still totally stand by the decision.
There are other forums I belong to that require an annual subscription and it works the same way - the people that are there are positive, engaged, enthusiastic and more than willing to help others. It makes total sense to me.
My two cents - worth probably about that much too
Back to your regularly scheduled program.
