Further to cost jacking, I just went back and looked at some quotes I got when I was shopping for a company car for MY 2017, comparing a loaded Honda Accord Touring V6 sedan to a mid-tier F-150 XLT with 4x4, SuperCrew, 6.5' box, tow package and 3.5 EcoBoost. 2017 MY Accord: $36,490 MSRP F-150...

That gen of Ranger has become a bit of a cult classic, as it was the last of the simple, basic, ladder frame, actually small trucks. With some TLC they're very durable, and appeal to a type that wants a stripped down option. This means clean ones can command a hefty price. As for pricing, it...

Also almost $20k cheaper for an equivalently equipped XLT mid-tier model (~$50k vs $70k despite the 150 getting a much fatter discount), plus easier to manage in urban environments. Considering I'd say north of 60% of F-150 drivers never haul anything heavier than their groceries and are mostly...

So sorry to hear. I lost my best bud somewhat suddenly this summer, and we'd fallen out of regular contact because he'd moved back to Newfoundland. So many regrets about all the times I put off calling because I was too busy, too tired, or just plain old distracted. Not the same, I know, but...

Since the Maverick shares a platform with the Escape, maybe worth looking to see if anyone has had success with it rather than the F150?

Everything about that ad is very... Welland. No phone and "pop in and ask for Jennifer or Jess" (while the ad is posted by Julie). Meth makes all things seem possible, I guess. Including getting a working 600 in a trade for what once was a 600 and is in such disrepair even the scrap value is...

Saw the massively underrated Trews play at the Festival of Friends in Hamilton recently (awesome show, great live band), and Dave Rave made a guest appearance. Needless to say, it went over a treat with the locals and got an even bigger reaction than the Trews spot-on cover of Girls Just Want to...

Had one in Hamilton in July where a literal kid killed an innocent bystander, a young woman, who was just waiting at a bus stop outside Jackson Square downtown at rush hour. It's bad enough when they kill each other, but being reckless enough to be firing a handgun on a busy street deserves...

My moment of truth was someone else's misfortune: had a pit neighbour on a Shannonville track day who brought his beloved R1. He launched it in a fairly low-speed highside at turn 13, and the bike dug into the grass and went full cartwheel yard sale. Bent everything on it, including the forks...

Haha, I've read about the history of the so-called A23 Derby, it still doesn't really make any sense. I think my favourite detail about the rivalry is that the Seagulls moniker for Brighton came about as a way to take the piss out of Palace calling themselves Eagles, but then stuck enough to...

This was by far the craziest transfer window I can remember, and not just for Liverpool. Despite Liverpool breaking the British transfer record twice in the same window, Arsenal managed to spend nearly £40M more net because they had very few sales, but somehow Liverpool is the one buying the...

Spending other people's money is way more fun than spending my own! That said, the showdown would have to wait a bit, had to swear off any speed-related contest for 12 months to qualify for a lower life insurance rate, so no track riding for me for the rest of this year and into a chunk of the...

This might barely do the trick: 2003 ducati 999 | Sport Bikes | Mississauga / Peel Region | Free local classifieds - Kijiji

Lots to cover here, and others will have far more experience with this than I do, but I'll pass on what I've learned over the years... First, pick the kind of bike you want to track. I'd strongly advise against anything with big power, unless you have a LOT of experience, simply because you'll...

I, uh, I mean, um, sure? Assuming it's real, I am constantly amazed that people actually buy those, unlike all the athletes and celebrities who get them for free. I assumed for a long time they were like Invicta, and the MSRP was kind of a joke with a real sales price much lower. Then I saw a...

Fantastic watch. Simultaneously manages to have classic diver proportions without falling into the Submariner rip-off looks that so many do. That L888 movement is also one of my favourites. Big power reserve (72 hrs), but at 3.5 Hz splits the difference between the basic Powermatic 80 with its...

Another Sprint ST with hard luggage for a song: Log into Facebook The bike that out-VFR'ed the VFR, with the added benefit of much simpler servicing over a V4. The ad is pretty minimal, and the photos are crap, but if this as clean as it appears, $3k is a huge amount of Swiss-Army-Bike for the...

Hey, just start a YouTube channel like Tally-Ho, pick up half a million subscribers and a bunch of Patreon patrons, and you might only be down one hundred by the time you're done...

Holy crumple zone, Batman. Hope everyone's alright.

She's a beaut. Is that the Reynolds Museum in Wetaskiwin? If so, definitely a sport worth a visit if anyone is ever out that way, and not just to see @guzzirider 's yellow peril rebuild...
