Went down to Toronto for the weekend. Of course the subway wasn’t working. Got around 6.1l/100 km, but the traffic flow was really quick going home. In the city we got around 4l/100km. Have to work on my eco mode and stay in the zone. p.s. Driving is getting worse and more crowded there...

Are there any free level one or two charging stations available? I have a Chademo DC fast charge port, anyone else? Are chademo chargers like hen’s teeth and getting rarer? Can you get an adapter to something North American?

We have a shower where half a closet might have been. Fits in nicely behind the ensuite toilet door: Put my Christmas and one of my Remembrance Day decorations out. Nice to do it when its still warm out.

Is there some kind of deal where you buy a charger and they pay you for using it?

Flipped the tires on the Odyssey. Two down and two to go. Eldest son has an apartment and a new job, so I don’t know when he’ll be by for the Camry. The Outlander is Nov 10th at the dealership, which was the day of the big snowstorm with the 401 & hwy 7 both being shut down last year.

Is there ever a point at which plugging in and unplugging your car becomes too much and you take the ice car for convenience? p.s. Canadian Tire said they didn’t have rims to fit mine. It also doesn’t show my make/model in their system. I think it shows the U.S. non PHEV model, which is...

Tried Kaltire here, since they could clone the sensors. It’d be cheaper to buy a TPMs programmer, I expect. Showed me the “retail” price of rims and gave me a hefty discount, which made them almost $150 more each than I’d priced them out on wheelwhiz.ca.

How would I clone the Mail ordered TPMS that come on wheels?

Moving crap around to get the car into the garage.

Outlander PHEV Noir. Only way I could get something that wasn’t greyscale or blue. Unfortunately, it doesn’t come with the brown seats. Still learning how it works, but it drives well. Is there any issue that I’m not aware of about getting fancier rims over steelies? I was looking at these...

Got the new PHEV car. Still trying to figure out all of the electronics. Doesn’t seem to allow you to charge it to a percentage on either the car or cable settings. You can set the hours it will charge.

****! Wonder if I know the Brian Buffey listed. If I do, his uncle was the head referee in the NHL, and his dad was one of my dad’s best friends.

Hey Jude

Specs say 16 hours from empty with a 120v 12A. 6.5 with a level 2 240v 15A. Will check and see what I get.

We bought the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Now I’m trying to figure out which mode to run it in. I want decent gas mileage, but the ability to recharge using a level one charger. We’ll see if that is possible after the car is delivered.

Pluto got demoted, it’s now Ur anus.

Had some water get in between my helmet and collar before and ended up with wet panties and soggy feet. Nothing like waterproof boots for holding water.

Is there a convenient way to fix finger wear gouges in cupboards. Ours are around fifty years old, but there’s lots of them and they match.

There’s a picnic spot in Griffith with toilets, around 12 Hyland Creek Rd, which is a nice ride from Calabogie. Be careful, as there may be farm equipment on the roads this time of year.

Ottawa BMW group went to Huntsville in the spring, and based a few days riding from there.
