G Class Forum (W460, W461, W463) - Change
Hi, I'm spend just about all my time in the G Class forum and would like to suggest we split the forum into 2: maintain the current forum for W460, W461 and W463, but move discussions on the new G-Class to a new forum (W463A or W464?).
Rationale:
Rationale:
- The new G, although keeping the same W463 designation, is a totally new vehicle with different parts and components that don't relate to the old G
- Two types of distinct and incompatible discussions are developing - 'fixing broken stuff on my old G to make use of it' vs. 'picking, waiting for, and cleaning/understanding my new G'
- Along with that, we have two distinct types of users - people who want advice on updating/maintaining a classic, and people looking to make the most of all the new features

Hey everyone,
I apologize for the delay.
We are looking at the best way to re-organize the forum but should be able to break out the G class forum.
Thank you for your patience.

Hi everyone!
Please take a look at the new G W464 forum. Does that make sense?
Also, please report any threads you feel should be moved to this forum. Thank you!

Sorry, can we change the forum titles to the following for more accuracy? Even though it's an entirely new vehicle, M-B decided to keep the same designation W463. However, most customers seem to refer to it as W463A.
G-Class (W460, W461, W463)
1980-2018: 290 GD, 290 GDT, 300 GD, 350 GD, 500 GE, G250, G300, G300 DT, G320, G500, G550, G55 AMG, G63 AMG

2019-Present: G550, G63 AMG
