    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    I'm what you would consider a "car guy", and I had no idea Mazda had a full EV EDIT: did some research, only sold in california? For us, Looks like was launched in BC and Quebec first, then rest of canada, no doubt it was cancelled (MY2022 to 2024). due to its limited...

    The new lawn tractors are junk.

    so true, learned this recently when my hot water tank crapped out. was going to buy a new tank from HD, my plumber warned me those were built cheaper. He sent me to his plumbing supplier, sure enough the same model while costing a bit more, was definitely built better. (more...

    The new lawn tractors are junk.

    can't speak for other brands, (although I know Kubota is an exceptionsl brand thats not cheap). when it comes JD..... skip the big box store models, those are disposable. Visit a real john deere standalone, they will have the models that are built better for the real consumer...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    I'm pretty sure 2026 is the last year of the Escape Hybrid and all Escapes for that matter. IF it's important to you, expect resale and value hits to compound as that model didn't sell much anyway. If you are not willing to wait a year for a Toyo, the CR-V hybrid is your best...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Theres a reason for that.... the mitz is essentially a rebadged Nissan Rogue. neither brand will excite you, but will get the job done. Mitz long term future in Canada would be a major concern for me (resale, value, parts/service)

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    yeah, I did some more poking around, in the early days when Tesla just had the Model S plaid and other high perf variants they used to require 100amp chargers, I did lots of them. in the code book rule 86-304 it does require a disconnecting means when going above 60amps. I'm...

    Coast appliances

    Filed for creditor protection. I am not surprised. Worst experience ever in all my years of appliance shopping. Went against my better judgement. They have a couple locations in Ontario Steer clear if you don't want to see your hard earned cash evaporate. I've always been a fan of...

    I also wait for real world evaluations before making final judgements Caught too many Manufacturers make dubious claims all to be dismissed in real world testing.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Phev are ridiculously expensive with short range I've been preaching since post 2 of this thread years ago,.... Tesla for electrics and hybrids are the way to go, still true today. With greater emphasis on hybrids now from automakers I expect even better mpg numbers in future models as...
