Two updates this week.
Just completed the December monthly update to the site, this includes News and also Classified Ads in the Vehicles for Sale, Parts for Sale, and Wanted sections of the site. Many new items.
Our last update was mid-November. This update covers all ads submitted in the past 4 weeks.
BTW, we are also badly in need of financial support.
For more specific information see the Updates section on the clubgwagen.com home page along with subsequent linked information on how to contribute to the cause if you have found clubgwagen.com to be of value in the past 6 + years of funding and maintaining this for the G community.

Mike,
Maybe a small charge to run in the Classifieds would help defray the costs.
Hi Mike, How about some merchandise? Not sure how profitable it would be? Might be more of a hassle than it's worth? T-shirts, hats, stickers, tire covers--all with the clubgwagen.com logo of course.
I would have no problem with a Paypal button for advertising.
Say $25.00 to list a vehicle, and $5-$10. for parts and Misc.
How about a spare tire cover that just says Gelaendewagen. [:0]
I will buy one from you tomorrow, so that I could have my wife wrap it and give it to me for Christmas! (I totally love messing with all my neighbors with H2's and Volvos, they have yet to figure out what my G is, I actually thought of taking star off front just to tease them more!)
Shirts and hats, would be cool to! I have a great vendor that does visors for me, cost about $4.00 each, sure members would be happy to pay $10.00 for them.
On top of all this, why not charge $12.00 each year for membership? If your site can not have a members only section, there are alot out there that can.
I give this critique as a newbie to both forms. Both of which have been more helpful over the past week then any other forums I belong too.
If your site had this chat ability and we as a accentric brotherhood supported each other with info you could find no were else, Why not break away from the Benz site and fund our own Private G site? Truthfully, though I own alot of Benz, I have fallen out of love with anything after the 1999 models. WHAT they have done to my S class to compete against the Japanese car makers is a crime!
Just one newbies imput with a huge G bug right now

Definitely do the Paypal button for advertising and general donations. Let's say $20 or $25 for vehicle advertising and $5 or $10 for parts. Also add a general donations button so that any amount can be given. I'm happy to be the first to donate. [:)] but it won't be much [;)]

If you need an annual member fee or 20-25$ US, I could handle that. The resources related to repairs alone, and the other items of great interest are worth the fee. But, if your current plan works for now, all the better. Keep us posted.
