Coming from Reddit, there were multiple car-related subs and they all saw some fairly heavy traffic with lots of posts and comments. Heck, even some of the model-specific ones seem to get more interaction than this sub does. What's the deal?

For me, a category as broad as this one is unappealing. I love all sorts of cars but rarely what's posted in a car such as this. "Air-cooled VWs", "off-roading" or "vintage and patina" is right up my alley but there's a bunch that's not.

The problem with that is there are even fewer users in those types of groups

But if a broad category as "cars" gets little traffic, I can't even imagine how dead a sub that's focused on "pink VW 7 window buses from Wyoming" would get.
