Sid, please take notice that most of the people saying no are the ones who don't own an SVT vehicle, and are even stating that in their posts. You had a ford Ranger and probably planned on getting a Lightning. The other people who you related to yourself already have performance cars and some would even consider going to any SVT product as step down for them. You have made it very clear in the past that this site supports itself and is worth well into the six figure range, those facts aren't compelling reasons for members to feel they need to support this site. Infact I'm suprised you used the word support. The membership fee seems to be mainly to cover the extra effort and expenses that would go into outside events.
Also, I was wondering if you would consider doing a light membership, I would probably buy that. One that only gives the extra benefits on the site only. Many of us won't want to go to a meet or will be to far away to want to go (overseas).
Did you even read my first post?
Yes, I did. If I am not mistaken, not having a paid membership will affect PM's, search capabilities, access to photos, etc. You asked for opinions, now you have mine. Not that big of a deal, Sid - it's your forum.
