Surprising to me to see the number of people that voted MAINTENANCE.
That makes little to NO sense in a mag. like TT.
Woody's Tech article was WAY cool. Off the cuff upgrades and things of that nature are GREAT captive reading material.
Maintenance as a topic is WAY boring. Not too mention the Tech Section here is SO MUCH more in depth than anything TT could publish that I believe it would be a waste of space.
I do think that little "ask the mechanic" section is good though, like the format of writing in and getting noticed; even if some of them are WAY dumb questions. Not everyone is a pro at maintaining their rig. I'm one of those "non pro's".
Adventure style articles make for great reads. Event write-ups make for great reads.
You'll reach a much higher percentage of your reading base by placing pictures and teasers like those in the thread linked above.
FWIW: The Surf N Turf cover photo was Way Cool.
That's my vote. More stuff about actually getting out there and doing it. Using them for what they're for. Need your valves adjusted? Do a search in the tech forum. And YES I firmly believe that the resources offered on Mud and other forum sites should be expanded upon in the publication.
