    Who is successful selling their used bikes this spring?

    Same here, had my '11 Ninja 250 listed on Kijiji, took about a month to sell, but it went quick as others have said, once we had a few warm days, it was gone for $100 under asking.

    Thanks, yup the styling especially the front end looks super sharp, and with the bright white paint, I'm loving it so far, plus the gas mileage, man what a difference from what I was used to with the van.

    Hey guys, so I pulled the trigger on a 2014 Ford Fusion SE 1.5 Ecoboost in white with tan leather interior. I will post pics when I get a chance to upload them to photobucket. I went and test drove it and that 1.5 is surprisingly peppy especially for that size of car. So thanks for all the...

    Thanks for all the feedback, so I'm going to look at a 2014 Fusion 2.0 ecoboost, it has 240 hp, and Im also going to try out a 2013 Accord. I have done a bunch of reading up on these cars and man that ford, which I have never been remotely a fan of, sure gets great reviews. And it's pretty...

    Thanks so much for all the great suggestions, there are some in there that I will certainly have a look at. @joebass, you are exactly right, I guess I didn't explain my self well enough, but mid size luxury sport is right what would make sense for my needs. I'm interested in that Acura posted...

    I'm sure that is one insane car but too much car for what I want. Lol I'd be divorced if I came home with that. Yes I still need the back seat, not too often we have both boys back there, so space isn't too much of an issue. I was just looking up the vw golf gti and the Subaru wrx, those both...

    Thanks for the info on the BMW they are out of my price range for sure, I wouldn't want to go too old to drop the price and I didn't do much research and didn't realize they were that expensive to maintain. I've never really been a Ford fan but yes the fusion is right in line. I'd also be...

    Brian the van we have now is a Kia and what a hunk of junk, never again, there are some interesting choices you have mentioned. Apparently we posted at the same time so you didn't see that the wife drives a Cruz, great little city car, even not bad on the highway but even with the turbo its a dog.

    Hey guys thanks so far, Bernie a friend of mine had the original Mazda speed protege and it was a rocket! May have to look and see if the Mazda 6 comes in that version.

    Hey guys, this is nonbike related, so that's why I posted here in rompwr room. Long story short I've been stuck driving vans for 17 years. We had twins, who are now 17, but a van was always so convenient but now that the boys are older I would love to ditch the van and get a car. But I am so...

    Holy crosswind. Day trip to Lucan

    Yup all north of here, lots of the back roads are now paved, even since we moved here back in 2000 from St. Catharines, more than double of the roads are now paved. We often head out towards Grand Bend, Goderich, Port Franks, also the other way, Alora and that area. For sure look me up next...
