The site has undergone some drastic changes! What do you think?

I like the changes..............however..........it took me a day to find it again!  I didn't know that the web address changed, so, I had to do a little searching................but, I found it! 

So, with all the new stuff here..........it is very easy to navigate around!  looking good.  Now, just need to get more people posting and sharing comments/ideas & stories and planned riding events!

I'm not sure what happened.. the web address is exactly the same as before  Huh hhmmm...

Though if the day you were looking for it was Tuesday the 4th, that was when I was updating everything so maybe that has something to do with it...

I am undecided on the changes...... but then again I resist change at all costs Grin

I do have one question, under the tips and tricks tab, for tow vehicles someone wrote the following
Quote
Towing speed, speaking of mileage towing speed has a lot to do with this. Going slower is not always the best way to save fuel, sometimes it worse to travel at a slower speed for better mileage. For example I get best mileage with my diesel at 2900 rpm's, that puts me at about 65mph, if I slow down to 55 my rpm's drop and I get worse mileage. See what works for you.

Is the 2900 RPM figure correct? if so, what motor are you running?
My PSD dosent like to run over 2400, and gets the best MPG at 2000 RPM (72MPH)

Explanation of the reason for the site changes:

If you hadn't noticed before, there was a main TI site with a link to the forum site. That had always bugged me so I tried to make all of it look more uniform, like one site instead of two. With links back to the main site and all. Everything within the forum basically should work the same it just has before only with a different skin. Hopefully this layout is more efficient than the old one, and hopefully everyone will be able to adapt..    Undecided Embarrassed

And I believe the thing under Tips and Tricks was written by Pat (vp insandity).

the 2900 rpm thing is definitely an error. It should have been 1900 rpm. I'm sure there are more out there. Oops.  Shocked

I was pulling my trailer home from St Anthonys last year, and I looked at the fuel milage meter and I was getting 99.999 mpg.  It stayed that way all the way down the willamette pass.
