To All: You MUST post your location...

naterprius · 04-05-2005, 10:00 AM

Welcome to PriusChat. Keep in mind this is the WORLD Wide Web.

When asking questions that are location related, it really helps us answer when we know where you are.

Like: My heater sucks. How's the rear defroster? My MPG sucks in winter. (We need to know where you live in order to get a feel for the severity of your winter).

Or, does my car have daytime running lights? (Do you live in Canada? Then yes).

So, make it easy on us, put some sort of location description, ANYTHING, in the "Location" field of your Profile. City and State (or country) is best, you can just be generic and put "New England" or "Midwestern US" or "Finland" if you are worried about stalkers or something. (But be accurate! It matters for so many responses).

If you still don't want to do this, then at LEAST tell us your general whereabouts inside your post.

(End Rant).

Or even more local: Anyone know of a dealership with a good Prius Tech?

Answer: sure, I know of one in Salt Lake City. Won't do you much good if you live in Florida though.

Sorry Rick, didn't mean to exclude you, but I didn't remember your location.

**Danny** · 04-05-2005, 06:48 PM

I wholeheartedly agree, Nate.

Sorry Rick, I'll never forget you're in Ohio again. But you can't argue that Kyle's avitar is unforgetable!

Location really helps, in every online forum. Be cool if was a way to be mandatory to fill something in when you register.

My avatar lists my location; don't most avatars list the poster's location?

Your avitar is a fish. No mention of location there! If anything, I would have guessed Florida.

Now if your profile is configured with your location, it will show BELOW your avitar, as does your age and gender.
