    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    My only regret with buying the Maverick is not buying the Mach-E. For me it’s one of the best EVs around and with Doug forcing us back to office 5 days / week the insurance premium would promptly be negated with the gas savings. Ah well. Thanks Doug.

    To all the GTA inmates

    Disagreement is healthy for the soul. Need to have people with opposing views in your life in order to at least try and see things from another angle. I have a few friends that we oppose politically / ideologically almost 100%. But we can still sit down together, have a laugh, get bombed, and...

    Buy A Real Tree

    We keep saying we’ll buy a real tree…but our fake one has lasted 8 years so far….so we’ll just keep it going until all the lights die. Just this year we’ve had 3-4 lights go out (out of 200 or so)

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    I don't think I'd use the Toronto - Montreal trip as a benchmark for any car...ICE or EV. I fully understand what getting an EV would be like, and unfortunately many do not. They think they can drive it the same way as an ICE car and then get frustrated when it doesn't and they're not ready for...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    My search showed 250-300 miles…not kms. Unless I’m very wrong.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Maybe if they didn’t load it up to be priced at 80-120k it would have sold better? I don’t understand how manufacturers felt the good times will go forever. People are losing jobs, running low on savings and food yet prices of vehicles continue to go up. We’re at 96 month financing! What’s...

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    How bad was it? I've seen it 500-700kms...even if it's 400kms in the ice cold winter it would work for me.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    If the price is right...it would make a fantastic replacement for the Maverick. More space, less fuel...win win! And as @GreyGhost mentioned...not like Ford can just stop supporting it. They need to continue support for many years.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    This is so disappointing. I love the F150L and I would 100% buy one if it didn't cost an arm and a leg...but it does. I'm hoping that Ford still pushes forward with their small EV that they keep discussing, but I'm not hopefully it'll be anywhere near the 30-40k they claim. More likely 60-70k...

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    I usually borrow one annually. Might have to do it again this year.

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    Yup, initial impression was positive...but it was also a fairly mild winter. This year...all bets are off and I'm frustrated. The house LOOKS 100x better. But it sure doesn't feel it.

    Risk understanding and management

    Those are all dependent on other people's control unfortunately. Each depends on other uses of trails, roadways, etc to be skilled enough not to kill / injure anyone else.

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    Wife made a funny comment last night, and she's 100%. 'So we spent all this money and the house looks great...but I'm not really seeing any benefit in terms of heating the house as it's still cold'. She's 100% right. We spent oodles of money, blood, sweat, time off, parental leave, and more...

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    I would just roll them. If you use a spray gun for the first time you'll end up rolling them anyway to even out any uneven spray.

    Where to get a puppy?

    Been two weeks with Lucy so felt a short update is in order. She's been great overall, but is now comfortable in the house. Enough to start nipping at the kids (and me/wife) when she gets excited and grabbed my smallest lightly by the calf which obviously scared the hell out of her. In the...
