I have been thinking about the instant message thing. I think if that were done, it may take away from the forum such as posts, asking question etc. Alot of guests will join to get answers to their questions they have about their truck and if we get a group IM here, the guests wont see that and will discourage them from joining. Also it may turn the site into a chat room where from what I have seen on facebook, it can turn ugly and most likely can not be moderated like posts can be. I think the open chat thread is cool, BUT I do like the idea of instant messaging one on one, not as a group though.
