    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Seen one out in the wild on the QEW at Jordan. Nice looking machine.

    Appliances brands?

    Where are you located? Go to Appliance Canada. Look for Fisher Paykel and they will have something for your size. They are spendy but, worth it. Sub-Zero is more on the custom and commercial end of things but, they do have residential items but, they may not have a lot of display models to...

    Used car sanity check

    I’d probably run mid grade fuel and see what fuel economy vs performance. Similar price point and just as rare manual, I’ve driven a Passat CC for the same vintage IIRC, 2013. Essentially a 4 door coupe. Looks great and excellent highway cruiser. Searching for a clean example is hens...

    Used car sanity check

    Personally, I’d like to take a vehicle for a rip before making a commitment. Even if the tires are flat spotted and worn, you can feel how it rides. Does the suspension have any clunks or unhealthy noise. How does the clutch feel, any slipping etc. even the doors seals can be misaligned and...

    Good question! I wonder if anyone has been denied?

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Honestly, I thought it was a check to see if we were getting a discount for something we didn’t have. When they responded they were just checking to make sure our rental had snows, I was genuinely surprised and impressed.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Interesting tid bit. Had an insurance claim from a neighbour backing into our vehicle parked on the street. Adjuster noticed we had a discount for winter tires and asked if our car had them on. Yes of course! Ok Mr. nakman, we will make sure your rental is also equipped with winter tires...

    Normal car recommendation….

    Have a 2018 Forester with the 2.5 base and it pulls decent and gets better fuel mileage than my daughter’s 2018 Crosstrek. Better room and visibility too. The CVT has programmed shift points to simulate a regular slush box. Had two of them and highly recommend.

    Carbon emissions

    I know we beat the heck out carbon emissions debate and didn’t want to open a separate topic on climate change. Here is a video on something I believe is very important and I am pretty diligent about sorting my recycling and do get annoyed with the large amount I need to handle every week...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    For the regular owners, how are you finding the remaining range display or battery % for accuracy? I’m one of the worst for running my vehicles down to their low fuel light comes on and use the trip display for litres per kilometre read out to give me some idea of where I’m at needing to fill...

    Total eclipse - April 8 2024

    DO NOT COME TO NIAGARA FALLS! it will be a gong show. Everything is booked and even if the day is overcast, traffic and everything will be jammed and poor service etc. Even the locals will be looking to get out of dodge before the weekend starts to avoid it.

    These Conservatives

    I think it’s fair to say media has changed to showing bias and hold conservative points of view with more scrutiny than liberals. Sure there is cross over when it can’t be avoided but, there is more op ed reporting than journalism. There is select clips to support a given narrative and it...

    These Conservatives

    We’ve got a thread bashing the current government and there is some back and forth on some opposing views. Let’s sling some mud at the next possible federal representatives if there is an election. I understand why the conservatives haven’t released a platform. However, the cynical side...
