    Not sure Web owner Ryan is going that route.

    With 250,000 - 300,000 plus members would be pretty spendy if everyone jumped on for a live chat.
     
  5. I've tried the social forums but it seems like they are all dead or won't let me in. I don't blame em though. I'm a ****. :D

    We tried it on the '54 Ford Club of America I can second what Cob said, it is a cost that would be prohibitive on a site this large. HRP
