Continuing the great work of @DasWauto, and the work several of us carried on under his banner at OppoBlog on Kinja, sifting through the fire hose of OPPO to find diamonds among the shitposts, we present to you...
For any of you who have been featured, thank you for helping to make OPPO awesome!
Please feel free to add the image above to your post, with a link back here, if you'd like. My hope is that this small token of recognition from our community will encourage others to put in the time for long-form articles or high-quality photography, or to start great conversations, or take more trips or start more builds and share them here, and maybe, possibly, to get a few more aspiring writers and photogs their start on a career in automotive journalism, like several OPPO alums have done in years past.
Here are the Opponauts featured in The Best of OPPO since January 20th (yes... FOUR months worth - sorry it's been a while!):

Here are just a few of the great posts featured recently:
FYI - user's posts are not moved over to Best of OPPO until they're at least a week old. If we've missed your article, I apologize (thumbnails and good titles help out a lot) - please feel free to send me a private message with the link, and if it's worthy, I'll add it.
Stay excellent,
Dave
p.s. - hey @The-Autopian, @David-Tracy @mikespin @Stef-Schrader @Miss-Mercedes @LJ909, I'm sure some of these articles are more than worthy of a feature on The Autopian or The Drive or Jalopnik. Just sayin...
Reach out to the author(s) and make it happen!
