Car Forum / Dodge / Dodge Trucks / October 2007CumminForum.com private?
I've never registered on this website but tried to since I recently bought me a Cummins Ram. It tells me my email addy has been banned and to contact the administrator. I did but no response. Is this website private by invite only or what? Anyone know the admins there? > I've never registered on this website but tried to since I recently bought > me a Cummins Ram.

Miles, I'm a little late getting to this but you might want to check out the TDR. It is a moderated site but I have yet to find one more informative when it comes to Cummins/Dodge info. The other sites mentioned are good, guess you have to find one that fit's your needs. Here's the addy: www.turbodieselregister.com Roy TDR is also a corporate slave, with the main thrust of lining the owners pockets. If its inhabited by the same types thatwere there several years ago, its more "my truck is faster than yours because I'm smarter than you," than it is informative. Still, there may be gems to find among the crap. IOW, its little better than this newsgroup, and the NG is free.

A little dramatic imo. Yup, you pay a membership to get full access and to recieve a fairly informative 150 page magazine 4 0r 5 times a year, but you can read the info at no charge I believe. >If its inhabited by the same types thatwere there several years ago, its >more "my truck is faster than yours because I'm smarter than you," than it >is informative.

Roy >>> I've never registered on this website but tried to since I recently >>> bought me a Cummins Ram. It tells me my email addy has been banned and [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] >> >> Roy Nope, not kidding. I was a member there for several years. At one point, they handed webmaster duties to a guy who hated Dodges and drove a Ford. Sadly, it showed in his attitude towards the members. One guy got banned from promoting his product, even though people were asking him directly about it. So he had to reply in a manner which didn't answer the question. IIRC, he finally posted that he could discuss things in full on the phone, and left TDR. There were other instances that made no sense where a member was shown the door for no apparent reason. Finally, when TDR admins went noisily public about how they had taken the site from its actual founder, and then how they were suing him for starting another site, I discontinued membership. TDR seemed far more interested in holding its status with Chrysler and promoting its own retail outlet than allowing free exchange of information. Maybe that has changed, but I'm doubting it.

He makes a fantastic product but there were other vendors that paid to advertise on that site, he refused. The choice was pretty much his. > There were other instances that made no sense where a member was shown the > door for no apparent reason.

Like every site, it has it's ups and downs but overall I don't think you can find more or better info on a Cummins in a Dodge. To each his own I guess.

Right, but for him to mention things he'd done as personal experience in a post, and then take crap for doing exactly what the site was designed to do seems a bit heavy handed. Either that, or they were exactly as I said, corporate slaves. > Like every site, it has it's ups and downs but overall I don't think you > can find more or better info on a Cummins in a Dodge.

Currently I like dodgetalk.com and dodgeforum.com. Unfortunately, most of the problems I encounter don't seem to be things the "average Joe" on a website can solve. This is likely because I've been turning wrenches longer than the "average joe", and when I need info or expertise, I must go to someone with more info than I. Out of all the people I've communicated with online, only three have had that level of knowledge. Each had a particular interest in the vehicle I sought info on. Each individual was either paid professional in his daily life, or a hobbiest who went above and beyond the normal owner.

Gone are the days of solving most engine problems with basic hand tools and a volt meter. On many websites I've found some highly skilled individuals and mechanics. You do have to filter out the non-answers. |
