Hi everyone! Considering the current state of the Elio, I’d like to get your opinions on an idea for the forum.

I was reading through @Mark BEX ’s thread on his new vehicle and remarked that we should change the name to “BEX Owners.” That got me thinking that maybe we really should change the name and direction of the forum, maybe shift to just a general 3 wheel vehicle forum?

We’ve also got a big software upgrade coming soon, could be a good time to rebrand and send out an update to all our members.

Thoughts?

I'm all for the change and I do support the title being changed to The BEX Owners Forum .... sections dedicated to reverse trikes and regular trikes could be setup .... within each section, content areas could be devoted to specific ones .... I also believe that separate sections should be devoted to electric powered trikes and internal combustion powered ones .... sections with areas dedicated to general topics should also be considered .... for historic value a largely archived section for Elio specific info

Yup.... I’m in favor of a name change and new direction. I might have felt differently... if we had heard anything from the Elio camp during the last 18 months or so. The silence has been deafening.

It’s time to move on.

Personally, I’ve never been a fan of trikes. (One wheel up front.) They’re too dangerous in many situations. I’d feel safer on 2 wheels.

The “reversed” trike is a different story. I love the direction Mark’s project is going. If it turns out like I hope it does, I’ll be an owner.

I look forward to the new name and new direction of the forum. You got my vote ;)

You might like to decide if it will be a 3 wheel forum encompassing all Trikes, or a Reverse Trike forum, that's more RT specific?
Definitely focused on reverse trike.

I'm trying to think of some possible names, any suggestions? Here's a couple I'm considering:

3wheelowners.com
3wheel.io (A little nod to elio in there)
3wheel.world
threewheel.world
threewheel.io

do a Google search for Three Wheeler Forums and you will find bunches of well established ones .... some general in nature, some more specific in nature .... do a Google search for BEX Three Wheeler forum and you get ZERO hits .... I support providing areas where all can be discussed but believe we need the BEX to be our anchor .... realizing anchors can come and go, if it ever should be wise to find another one, we could
