Thanks a bunch, Tboothe. That means a lot. I work hard on it.

I'll get to Hondas.

I've had two, and I want to expand my "brand" to other makes. Only after this site is world-class.

If you have an Accord, I found the folks at DriveAccord to be helpful (at least diagnosing a hiccup on my mom's 7th gen). Less of the usual Honda fan boys seeking to get 500 hp out of a Civic and more people there like you have at MVS just helping people to keep their cars in top shape.

Me, too, Matt. Your site fulfills an early promise of the Internet—fingertip knowledge, nearly endless for those who venture there. No way would I have attempted some of the repairs on my 850's without help from MVP members. Not sure if i would even own a Volvo since i do like to be able to fix my own cars—but will shy away from anything that feels like a trip in the wilderness without a map on a cloudy day.

That makes two of us. If it is like MVS, then it will be the best one ever. The people will be nice for a change too. :lol:

Thanks guys! :-) Feels great to run the site and help people.

If you want to say additional thanks, thank a moderator. Those guys do it for the love of it. I did it for the love of it when I started it 10 years ago as a hobby/experiment, when I was making $3/day 6 years ago with Google AdSense, and still today. But the mods only get paid in compliments and every August when all donations go to them (Moderator Donation Month™).

Me too!
