I just want to add my concurrence to John's comments.  I would, however, be a little upset (but will not yell about it, I have a choice of whether to open the post or not) if the weekend starts to be taken up with pictures of airplanes, questions about cameras, forwards of advertisements for concerts (all of which I have seen here on Fridays).  You get the idea, and there are myriads more such things.

So far as things like campsites, tools, the quality of a given highway, and numerous other things that are not particularly vanagon related per se but relate to our use of them, I personally deem those things to be appropriate any day of the week.  The moderators may differ, but I think they have explicitly concurred concerning anything camping related.
