Spray some car wax inside your snow blower, it'll help with sticky snow. Or even cooking spray. Btw what do you guys think of the battery powered snow shovels, are they worth it for when the snow isn't deep and you don't want to bust out the snow blower? I mean this...

If you gonna be in nova scotia, I did highways 211 and 316 a couple summers ago, very twisty with almost no traffic (or anything else for that matter), but the pavement had lots of potholes. On cape breton island, I decided to try riding the east side of the island, there was a road called...

So if a dealer is selling a car for $25,000 and you choose not to finance, he won't let you have it for the advertised price? That's crazy if true.

Don't you need to remove the visor to give it a good cleaning? At least that's what I do, it's hard to work a towel in there while it's attached. Another thing I find about this helmet, is since the vent on top is so big, I'll often get big bugs stuck in there and that's really annoying to...

You guys are getting ripped off, I got one of these for a dollar at dollarama and it cuts real good:

I got the Shoei GT Air 2 and honestly it's not worth the price. The visor removal mechanism is extremely awkward and clunky. The fit and finish is no better than my Bell and Scorpion both of which were a third of the price. I'm not saying it's a bad helmet, just that you can get something...

LOL I admit I know nothing about them... I just like rooting for the under dog and I don't see many Mitsubishis on the road. But it does look like a lot of car for 48k just based on reading the webpage. I guess mitsubishi has to undercut the more popular brands on price in order to compete.

No this is the best car for him: 2025 Outlander PHEV – Electric SUV | Mitsubishi Motors Canada

Why are you wanting to replace your GTI though? I had one, mine was a 2015. I only had it for like 2 years but during that time it was a great car and got good fuel economy too. Is yours giving you any trouble?

You can get a skewed perception of what people think from the internet. On twitter and reddit everyone is like "I'll never buy a tesla cause of elon" but in real life people don't care. I'm constantly seeing people on the internet freaking out about things that nobody I've ever met in real life...

I guess it depends on what you need. I just checked rockauto.com for some random stuff like calipers and struts and and see many different aftermarket manufacturers offering parts. But there are probably certain parts that only Tesla can provide. Although I think that's true for most makes.

I think used ones are actually a good deal right now. I'm seeing 5 year old Model 3's going for low 20's. There is no engine so that eliminates most things that go wrong with a used car. Where did you hear that only tesla provides parts/service? Most of the non EV specific parts of the car can...

What kind of a numpty buys a car based on what random strangers on the road will think of him? You buy whatever meets your needs the best. My Tesla (bought new in summer 2023) now has just over 45,000 kms on it and it hasn't given me any problems yet, and saved me a few thousand in gas and lack...

The consensus from what I've been able to google is that cheap chinese batteries are crap. They start out fine but start to lose their capacity soon, and after a while you'd be better off if you'd just paid full price for a genuine battery.

Would love to pick up a 2nd bike if they really do drop down in price. The problem is then I'd have to pay double for insurance. There should be some way to reduce insurance if owning multiple bikes since I can't ride two bikes at once.

I bought the 40v ryobi mower last spring and used it all summer and it's been great. I can do my entire lawn on half the battery. The best thing about it is that it stores upright so it saves space. My only concern is if the battery dies a replacement 6ah 40v battery costs more than the mower...

Don't forget to budget another $2000 for the factory side cases.

I used to buy a new piece of gear at least once a year but for the past 2 years I've bought nothing as I have pretty much everything I need. One thing I've been thinking of buying is a pair of waterproof gloves, I got waterproof gear that keeps the rest of me dry, but nothing for my hands. But...

This sounds like it will be an incredible trip. And stopping to do hikes each day in unfamiliar areas sounds lots of fun. I wish I could join you but I can't get that much time off work. :( Only a few more decades till I retire then I'll be doing these kinds of trips every year. :D

What exactly are you expecting to change in the US? More hassle crossing the border?
