It's like a cozy pair of pajama bottoms, or perhaps a better metaphor would be the seating position of my Camaro. Not perfect, but its mine and I'm so used to it that anything else would feel strange.

My biggest complaint is that I just wish the front page was updated from time to time.
Nailed it...

It's actually the largest privately owned car forums out there and not just holding on by a long shot.

You obviously have not been an Admin on any of those forums. The database on this one is massive and not something you just convert over to one of the newer versions.

As far as embedding videos... it's a simple copy link and paste... doesn't get any easier such as what other sites require with tags and all.
One of the customizations here is it will auto tag it for you but you're not going to see that as a regular user.



Here is a 2nd way to embed Videos that is part of this site but not the newer ones.
