4th gen section needs updates

[Deleted member 995608]

I thinks it's about time the 4th gen section gets separated in into categories - powertrain, non- powertrain etc. lots of info getting bunched up into one group. What do you guys think?

Agreed!

I kind of like it the way it is. I believe, unlike previous generations, that most are going to leave the drivetrain bone stock. If you really look at prior generation motor and drivetrain questions, they are heavily weighted on performance improvement and modification. I see that pretty much non existent in this crowd and searching for 600 hp doesn't seem to be mood of this section. The breakdown of drivetrain vs. non drivetrain categories only leaves me more subsections to search for an answer. I belong to various other forums for other vehicles and my pet peeve with 1 of them is that there are so many sub forums that I can't ever find what I am looking for. I just know that when I come here, even if it's been a day or two, I can still see all the new posts on 1 page. If we were filling 2 or 3 pages a day with new threads, I would agree with you.

Just my opinion.

I think this forum could be divided even more than it is already,...

General- body, electrical etc
Engine
Chassis/ suspension
Tires/wheels
Performance accessories

I have found a lot of the same questions in both "powertrain" and "non-powertrain" sections. Mostly because the question(s) don't really fit in any of the categories offered.

The 4th gen 2013/14's are still relatively new. It's only a matter of time before the modifications begin and the market is flooded with upgrades. We're Americans after all; we like to tinker....

Maybe divide 4th gen into Non DEF and DEF? Just a thought....

Being new to this forum, I have to agree with you on this one. I also looked at other forums and there are a lot of similar posts between power and non-power train groups. It appears that some comments and conditions of problems overlap and as a result it becomes difficult to search for specific items. For the time being, keep it as it is.

Being fairly new on here, belonging to quite a few forums I would have to say to leave things the way they are. Other forums you are jumping from place to place.
This forum is set up very nice. Very easy to find things. Just my .02
