My province actually revoked a dozen or so driver’s licences of people that had originally failed. Moved the next province over, got their Class 1 (semi truck and trailer license) and moved back. Of course they immediately claimed racism.

I don’t think he wanted to sell you the car.

The SI had a brief discontinuation when the model changed. It’s not uncommon for up-trim models to be released months after a redesign.

I’m sure exposed fasteners are great if you live somewhere without winter. Otherwise you’re just asking for trouble the first time you have to touch them. Although anyone buying a vehicle worth that much is unlikely to attempt the plebian task of changing a turn signal bulb.

My brother went looking to see how much it would cost him to replace his 2006 Taco. Let’s just say he decided against replacing it at this time. The $40k+ price tag was too much for heated seats.

Accords use an indirect TPMS system that measures wheel speed and through the magic of technology detects changes in a tires rotation relative to the others.

It probably had a factory set at some point. Of course there’s a whopping 10 variations, so if you have the kit it takes all of 30 seconds to find the right one.

Rabid idiots of course.

You’re assuming they actually have money and not just a huge car loan with insane interest.

America has the south and Canada has Alberta.

I find it odd from a consumer relations standpoint that they would be notifying you of problems they can’t solve.

Damn that’s ugly.

That’s what the adults in my family have been doing for the last 10 years. We started at a $50 secret Santa type thing and it devolved into a $30 exchange where everyone goes in turn and picks a number.

There’s a fairly linear correlation between tire quality and the amount of weight it takes to balance them.

I never had any issues with them. You could sense them clogging up and losing some effectiveness when there was accumulations of snow, but they never left me wanting for more grip when any was available. Never ran a different winter brand to compare them too. They did take 3-4 ounces each to balance and they were only…

It’s cold and the roads around here have enough snow and ice pack in winter that unless you’re flooring it at every chance, they’ll last a long time. I had a cheap (see also: Chinese) winter tires on my Saturn that I used for 5 or 6 winters. When I sold the car, the 3 remaining tires were still around 7/32nds. But…

I worked for a fairly large auto group a few years ago. Just after the thanksgiving holiday when they next pay check came out, a couple of techs noticed that the holiday pay (it’s a Canadian thing, not sure if there’s an equivalent in the US) had been calculated differently. Eyebrows were raised and apparently the…

Like they care about the $150k. They’ve probably screwed over techs to a factor of 10 times that.

If you can prove you’re life is at risk where you’re from you can just stroll across the boarder and seek asylum. There’s a couple of UN treaties that protect the right to do so. The system is so backed up from people exploiting the option, it would probably take years before you’re finally thrown out.

That’s irrelevant when its a race car. The engine works, or it doesn’t. If it doesn’t, step 1) remove engine.
