Do Automakers Listen to Us?

There is an Autoweek story about how some automakers are monitoring websites to gauge how enthusiasts feel about their cars.

From the article: "Karthik Iyer, who leads business development for Intelliseek, a company that monitors web buzz for a number of automakers, says unsolicited feedback from true enthusiasts is sometimes the best advice."

It explicitly mentions that Nissan, Mazda, and VW are directly or indirectly monitoring websites for feedback. Unfortunately, it does not mention Honda anywhere.

Therefore, I urge all TOV readers to provide good feedback on Honda cars via the News Items we post and via the Message Forums. Tell everyone about the TOV so that we can expand our user base to engulf all types of potential Honda buyers. Maybe next time they'll write an article about us.
