So no, there's not only no reason to change the forum name, there are plenty of reasons to keep it exactly the same.
****ing leftists ruin everything they touch.

How about just getting rid of non owner's with exclusions to past owners

Easier to trim the fat off than get new steak.

Haven’t owned a Vette is 10 years but since I hang out in OT, Vettebarn is acceptable.

As a Vette owner for over 35 years I think the name is fine.

Have had 7 Vettes in that time frame, but now am Vetteless.

Do to health reasons I got rid of my last Vette (15) 2 years ago. Knee surgeries and getting in and out was getting difficult!

I had both hips replaced and two knee jobs. I just open the door, sit down sideways and spin around and I'm in. Reverse it getting out.

Really? I thought you still had it.

I'm okay getting in and out of mine -- so far.

That boy's hair looks terribly damaged. I'd start with a scalp conditioner and exfoliating treatment. Then, a deep conditioning followed by a good styling and blow-out.

Regarding maintenance he could try a daily conditioner and a quality shampoo. Something by Aveda.

I hear that, when I had to decide which Vettes to sell as I prepared to retire, my orthopedic surgeon helped sway me. I took my 2018 to my pre-replacement surgery appointment and he saw me get out of it and said it should probably go if I wanted my knee to last. On top of just being a C7 it was also lowered by the previous owner. Gravity made it easy to get in but it was hard to get out of. I kept a C3 and C5 as they are the easiest to get in and out of.

Default On name change again.....
Just an odd thought about maybe changing the spelling of the name in the group.....

The Vet Barn.......so that folks of various .mil backgrounds can be welcomed into the house......

and of course a topic in the group collections to include CORvettes......

What I see is non Corvette info . Change the name and more would join the Forum. Most think that VBF is about Corvettes. Which it is not.

Paul Mitchell products are good too. I haven’t tried Aveda.

Oh…..how about “The Red Vette Barn”?
