So what do you guys think of DriveWerks?

adrian jaye · 12-12-2003, 12:33 AM

ok,

I think there should be a catagory for things like
Pizza, Burgers etc. and a delivary girl on rollar skates to take your orders to you.

I think people shud paye to access driveworks. Say 10 bucks a pop. Make it exclusive and you'll get loads of people banging on your door to get in.

Is it open on bank holidays ? what about in times of civil unrest ?

Hope this helps

ps
what is drivewurks ?

Wayne,
I think the site looks great, clean with nice pictures. How about some lower cost vehicle casters for car storage?

I've wondered about brand confusion between Pelican and Drivewerks. Maybe this only happens because I come from the message boards and you're attracting Drivewerks customers from other sources.

We're leaving next Wed. to drive down to Carlsbad for a couple of week visit, maybe we can get together.

Looks too much like Amazon.

I agree with the brand distinction comment. Do I go to PP for a product or DriveWorks....Ooops I mean DriveWerks. ;-)

IMO, it should be an extension of PP.

had a look Wayne,

seems fast, but then I have got a T1 connection at work.

how is it on 56k modem,

layout seems ok.

I would say nice site, but pretty much like others I've seen. Layout could be a bit more ordered.

But hey what do I know !

keep working on it, and if you like it and you get buisiness from it, then thats what counts

A group of related sites is fine with me. Doesn't matter where the stuff is as long as one can find it. On tools: Specific Porsche tools are on Pelican and more generalized are on Drivewerks, But I guess a search will take you to where it is located. Must be tough to draw the line when choosing which site to list items like tools.

But with 3 divisions, I can only anticipate 'Ferrari Emporium" as a 4th.

I don't find it nearly as useful as the Pelican side. I place an order about every six weeks from you & have yet to find any thing of interest on Drivewerks. In fact I keep a link in my favorites that takes me straight to Pelican Parts.

i agree with pschrup, but it can probably be attributed to the fact that i am mostly shopping for parts. (at this time). for example, swepco products, i would probably go to PP first before i think of DW. but i have to admit, i think i have gone to DW countless times just to look at the friggen floorjacks.

IMO DW would benifit from a Christmas Catalog. Also, do you have gift certificates? I could not find them on the site.

At least Todd will be happy to hear that.

I just found the Gilf certificates on page one. I must have missed it when I looked on Friday.

I can't stand using dw
I checked under the performance tab and there were 4 things!
I checked for oem parts for 86 951 and nothing came up (pelican did though)

maybe I just don't know how to navigate your site

I don't mean to bash your site!
a catalog would be good
