NP for me. These are fantastic cars. I’d probably haggle and try to get it for $10K and use the $1500 left over to chemically strip and powder coat the wheels to the appropriate colour.

Yeah, you’re all good to come up IMHO. I have no argument with Americans. Most of us would just prefer that Trump voters stay south of the 49th.

Get another Subie. Specifically a WXR STi. Here’s a 2016 for $21,770CAD (just a tick over $15K USD). Fast, back seat, room for the dog.

I wouldn’t own winter tires without them being on their own rims. It takes me maybe 1/2 hour in the garage each spring/fall to do the wheel swap and it’s free. My winter wheels were $200, three years ago.

If the Zodiac Killer and Owner of The World’s Most Punchable Face wants to strip the US of its world-leading researchers and scientists, so be it. We’ve got lots of research universities in Canada (McGill, McMaster, UBC, UofC, UVIC among others) that would be happy to work with them to build out cutting-edge research

Exactly what I came to say. Goddamn cowards. 

I love it when people discover the Imperator. I was a teenager when it was released in 1984. I loved its Buck Rogers looks then, and I love it today.

Thank you!! The Utopia picked up the ridiculous stick, right where the Orochi dropped it. 

I submitted this back in 2022 for the “Near Miss” QOTD. It fits for this question as well.

Gotcha. I misunderstood. Your guy sounds like every new-money, mid-30s, oilfield-services company owner, that lives in my town.

I know a guy like that. He’s got a jet and a helicopter; no yacht. His daily for years was a rusting 1984 Ford pickup. I ran into him a few months ago, heading into a meeting. I was surprised to see him as I didn’t see his truck in the parking lot. I asked him where his truck was and he replied “Off getting restored

On the other hand... it is always acceptable to harass Nazis and Nazi-sympathisers. 

Still ugly. Still cheap-looking. 

Define “Winter”. Because when I walked to work on Monday it was -31C and snowing. That’s not convertible weather. 

I know the fleet manager of the local GM dealer here in town. He has nothing but scorn and derision for the the EV Blazer. I believe his exact words were “hot steaming shit pile that I wouldn’t let my mother purchase.”

Well, when you’re wrong at least you’re aggressively wrong.

Still too much money for nowhere near enough range. 

None. With electric motors we could theoretically create as much ground clearance, breakover, and suspension travel as we want with a unibody. 

Modern cars are legally required to come equipped with tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS)

I’m a PADI-certified diver with drysuit and Nitrox certifications. I’m also an ACMG-certified mountain guide, and I hold a commercial white-water rafting license. I don’t need to see my colleagues die in order to know I have to trust my training, keep my certifications current, re-train, and learn from
