    Everyone Here Loves tacoms of all shapes and sizes. Everyone likes different things for their trucks. Vendors what to be there to provide what the people want to buy for their truck. The users of TacomaWorld are the ones using this site for information and buys products. Those users should be the ones who get to choose on who can be a vendor here and show off their cool new products. Does anyone else think that this would be of value to the site?

    While I agree with this, the problem (that I see) is that theres no way to discriminate between who has had experience with the vendor compared to people voting because they "like the name" of the vendor or have seen a few "cool" items from said vendor-

    Bob takes users experience into account when adding vendors to the site, only letting those with positive reviews have a vendor status.

    There is a difference between you/your opinion not mattering and your say being outweighed by what others have to say.
    Don't cry that we ignored you...SDHQ was made a vendor and then we received additional information. Changing decisions happens.

    No, but we should be able to have input. Sounds like because users had input, SDHQ is out.
