Not sure about others but when I open the trip finder http://www.4wdtrip.com.au/trips.aspx it defaults to "All States" & "Latest Add First"
I would much prefer the default to be set to "Start Date Earlier" as this shows what is coming up in the order it is coming up. Unless you really study the site religiously and remember every post the showing new adds first seems pointless.
Just curious as to whether others would like the default to be "Start Date Earlier" or the other and better option, that the website remembers each users preference from their previous log in or has a setting option so these can be customised by each user.
