I’ve not been on these forums as long as some, but seems like I spend half of my limited mental capacity here trying to decipher abbreviations......WBDO?, BD?, BL?, SAS?, TTA?, ad nauseum.
I understand some of y’all have very important pressing issues in your lives that necessitate brevity...but really?
Can we get a sticky (thread that persists) that deciphers these for those of us who are abbreviations challenged please?

I feel for you. I've been in that spot elsewhere. I try to use the "full name" once before I abbreviate. As in:

The two-door Badlands without Sasquatch is the best all-around Bronco you can buy. If you say that a 2D non-squatch BL isn't the best, I will fight you.

That is what everyone thinks but its not. Black is the New Blue.

@Administrator, this could be a useful reference thread for new members if properly curated. Would it be possible to set the thread status to “Enable Wiki Post”?

Good idea. The first post of the thread is now a Wiki post and can be edited by all members.

It should be… the 2 door Badlands (BL) ….. non-squatch BL ….
