Why has particiaption dropped in the Tech forum?

When I joined Pelican in 2003, you could actually work on a 911. Basic tools, good manuals amd books (anyone remember "101 Projects For Your Porsche 911"? Modern cars are setup so that there isn't much you can do. Owners are "checkbook mechanics".

In the meantime, air cooled cars have soared in price and parts are all made of unobtanium (if you can still get them). I have learned most everything that I would be able to handle and there just aren't that many new air cooled owners that have the time or the money to DIY.
