I'd love a travel forum. I've read posts on TFP about asking what to do in such and such a place. I love to hear about those out of the way places (stuff you won't find in a AAA book for instance) that someone may have happened upon. Could be a cool restaurant, bar, beach, road to drive, or just a nice view. I'd bet people would willing to share personal experiences on more common vacation type stuff too - like cruises, theme parks and museums.
I don't care for most of the touristy type stuff and would love to hear about places that make members home towns or areas really special.
Someone posted in one of the forums here pictures from a trip to NYC. There were pretty cool. Maybe a travel forum could be a place for more vacations 'slideshows' like this.
The one down side is that, IMHO, there may be too many forums on TFP already. In some ways I like this there are certian topics I'm not interesting in and will rarely visits those forums. On the other hand I enjoy the mish-mash of stuff in the general forum and sometimes find a pleasant thread I'd otherwise miss.
