    senior member

    How does a person get to be a senior member? I am not looking to be one, I just noticed that some senior members ask lots of questions that could be solved with a simple search. Is it just the number of posts not the knowledge of the member?
    thanks for a great forum.

    Turn 55 or above . . .

    Sorry Dave, just had to get that out there. Hell, a large portion of us are 55 or above on this forum.
    And not because we wanted to be.

    I thought midlife crisis would be good for the licence! Although, probably any way you try to spell it it would already be used.

    My wife tells me my midlife crisis Roadster is a lot cheaper than a midlife crisis girlfriend!
