First off, this is aimed at no particular person, but if the cap fits......
Is it me just getting old & grumpy, or does there seem to be a plethora of folk who just seem to wander onto the forum, usually after they've encountered a problem with their new van, and ask the same question that's been asked times many? They don'tcan't be arsed to use the Search function, which IMHO is one of the most powerful tools available on the forum. Many times it's a vague generic question, without any detail, background, history etc. & we have to question them at length to get any meaningful info in order to offer any assistance, it's like pulling teeth sometimes. It's a Google mentality, "I'll just ask on the forum & someone will drop what they're doing & give me an answer".
There are some very detailed threads & articles on here, that people have taken the time & effort to put into words, that cover just about every subject that can arise with our vans. From Camper electrics, to Suspension & wheels, it's very rare that a genuinely new subject arises. Now I'm not saying that questions shouldn't be asked, they are the lifeblood of the forum, but please do a bit of basic research first & then come with some specifics.
