Ed,  I take your point but if someone posts a poll listing hitches A, B & C  someone is going to complain that hitch D wasn't included and others will recommend hitches X, Y & Z.  Would be better to ask for an opinion.

 funny you say that. i did a poll on tow vehicles and it was just to goof around.(an extension of truck wars) and i received an e-mail that i left out gmc,even though i had chevy in there and i also left out all the medium duty trucks (sterling,freight liners etc.). it was a valid point but i think there is a fair share of good humor on this forum and this fella might of missed it.

I'm an active member in a forum that has polls.  90000+ members.  Rare poll that gets more than 100 responses which is horrible when you look at the number of members. (just like the turn out on any election day)  Most of the polls I've seen are self serving in the sense that generally the poll poster is trying to reinforce a decision or justify a purchase they have already made.  This poll is truly self serving as it is being used to market a feature Crossroads added to the forum.

Now, if they're used for fun....

i guess my point was that if used and taken correctly i think they can be useful and fun. i think we are lucky to have a good spirited imformative and sometimes fun forum for us to use, thanks to crossroads.
