Would be great if post titles were more informative

[DodgeK1]

The posts are great when you find the topic you need for your car, but much content is hidden from search because in the first place, the post titles don't include the needed info... it would be great if postings would be required to start with the make/model of the car! You could then scan the post lists quickly, and get the help you need. Say, you have a 1998 Dodge Caravan, you could quickly round up the relevant articles by finding all the titles including your type of car, then, adding, (depending on the compatibility of the problem) the titles including all Caravans and Voyagers and Town&Country's from 1996 to 2000, since you would find the models/years listed ikn the posts... Instead, you have to sift through lots of titles like "A/C out" "car won't start" etc. aching wondering if you should read them would they pertain to your car... One suggestion how this could be implemented, would be starting with the yer of the car, (like some do already) -- so a title would look like "2004 Dodge Ram tranny problem" and the system would scan for a year and would send an error/correction request message to someone posting a title like "Tranny problem seems like burnt seals", that would automaticlly weed out some. (Not sure what else the system could be programmed to do, that would not require too much work to plan) This is a long post, but the correction of the title problem would be logical, (and quickly implemented if users like the idea) . It would SAVE tons of time searching through post lists, and bring more satisfaction in using the site. ...Hope the Admins will consider it!

We dont program the system to do anything, it simply takes the users key words and searches for them... to help it out, you would select the section to help narrow down the results... (IE 3rd gen Ram.)
