Horrible new format.
Hate the new format. The forum jump is gone. Now when you click on it in it's new location, you get the drop down menu for all of the years. And selecting the 48 and up is no guarantee that it will work. And it doesn't stay on that year. You get the full menu every time you click on it. This is progress?
So why did you have to change the current format? If I wanted related topics, I would ask for them.
Sorry but I do not like this new format. Just too many changes to make it useful.
Later!

You can switch it back to what it was before when you go to your C/P user and select options and disable the infinite scroll .

The navigation bar is along the bottom. It includes pagination, forum jump and Quick Reply. The bar may disappears to give more real estate but reappears by simply moving the page down a little. As a part time web developer I think it's a brilliant design that is a real time saver. Used to drive me crazy to have to scroll through a long, photo-filled page to get to the page links.

I've come to the point where I detest all modern technology.........would really love to go "off the grid" so to speak.

This is the most cluttered and complicated forum that I am on. If I want to go to another year model section of the forum I can just hit the back arrow at the top, simple. No need for all of the task bars taking up the top third of every page, they could all be put on the index page like most forms do so they don't clutter the pages. With the new format I now have to wait for all the junk to load before I can access a thread. I also have to close the program quite often and restart because of screen freezes. There are only two things that I can see that are an improvement, first is the auto save feature when typing a post, and second is that I can now load pictures after text, I could not do that before. New is not always better or an improvement. More features are not always better either, it is usually just more complicated and more clutter.

Thanks John for the tip about the infinite scrolling, I have disabled that and hopefully it will be better. We live in the sticks and can't get cable, also Dish doesn't serve our purposes. So wife and I have hot spots on our phones which we use for internet. We have a "unlimited connection", but after a certain amount of bytes we go much slower. And when it's slower it crawls. We never even think of streaming a movie, it's too slow for that when it is working normally. Problem with this is when I go on to FTE and all those pictures, etc are loading it is using data. LOTS of data. Most people don't care cause it's free basically for them. Well the reason for the site is to make $$ for the owners, and I really do get more out of it than I am inconvenienced, I guess.
