Does anyone here use DieselRam.com's discussion forums? It's a great
site, but I've been getting redirected to a site that sells domain
names. What's up with that?

Last update was early 2007, according to the home page which I was able to
see last week. Its very possible that the domain name is now up for sale,
having lapsed.

Interesting that this has been the subject of some discussion of late. It
seems that CumminsForum.com is one of the best places for civilized
discussion. TDR and DTR have both lost their experts, according to a few
trusted sources I have. Competition Diesel apparently has one guy that know
his stuff, but doesn't post an awful lot. DTO is a pain in the a.s, being
run by a bunch of moderator power trippers. DTR bans as many as sign up,
from what I've heard. I was there a short while ago, and they got all pissy
when I offered a guy a pdf file of info.

Thanks for the reply Max.
I remember when they updated the site early last year. It took a while
to get used to the new appearance but I soon adjusted.
What I find strange is that the owner of the site (can't remeber his
online name) posted a couple of threads saying how adament he was that
the site was not up for sale. If it is now, he has just abandoned a
great community of people and some fine experts .....Maxtorq, Tim Holt
to name just a couple. I have been an infrequent poster, choosing to
keep quiet if I'm not 100% sure of the answer but I did browse the
forums daily. I would appreciate hearing back from you on any further
information you may come across. Thanks again.

I believe Rob Spading had it, but the name on the copyright is Rob with a
different last name. I requested an update of my login info, and haven't
seen it yet, thats been better than a week.
