I was heading towards crappy tire to pickup a 39.99 igloo cooler. I’m gonna leave it in the back of the hitlerbox so I can keep the dogs water cold.

I’m pretty shocked that I couldn’t find any sort of a hard box cooler in the house. I could have sworn I had like 2-3 of them lying around but I don’t recall seeing anything during our move.

Here is the print file for the tesha supercharger. https://makerworld.com/en/models/164...ofileId-180949

Less than $1.50 in filament with a print time of 4 hours and 10 minutes. Add your own cable.

Did some towing of utility trailer around Richmond.
Tow haul mode turns up the regen braking.
28kWh/100km … or like $3/100km.
Cost savings go pretty hard.

Our other trucks…
F350 6.7 Diesel got 15L/100km towing
F150 5.0 gasser gets like 25
Both have 8 foot bed

I think there's enjoyment to driving something kinda absurd lol, especially with an awesome exhaust note.

The EV version's gonna be so much cheaper to run than the ICE version of the G Wagon

I feel like the wrangler, challenger, and G wagon are the kinda car where you either get it, or you dont

I need to drive them to see if I get it or not.

I love the idea of the G and the Wrangler, I just don't think I can live with them.

The Challenger I've loved from day one, but again never driven one.

Challenger's really goofy - it steps out its rear end in such a predictable way that my boss and I would always take one out behind the office and leave lots of tire marks.
Everyone - import and domestic would assume you want to go for a highway rip ... never happpened in the s2k.

Made a lot more mems in the 2 months I had that company car than in the 2 years I had my s2k.

I really enjoyed the Challenger rental I got in Los Angeles. Comfortable, lots of power, and overall a great highway cruiser for long trips.

tbh I really enjoy driving them in Vancouver city too - feels special even just loafing around and the V8 is just sooooo smooth and good at mid throttle.
I'm happy to pay for gas on great ICE engines as exciting as F20c, LT6 and Hemi

New plug in M5 wagon!


Might be a decent buy a lease return from a rich mainlander and pay no PST. People whine about the weight but in reality 99% of M5's are street cruisers.

It's probably fine, the extra weight helps sometimes.
Wrangler 4XE has the lowest CoG and 50:50 weight distribution

In case anyone else in looking for one or thinking of one - I contacted a Toyota dealership about the Crown Signia and while they're showing up in the US now they are basically unavailable in Canada at this point and Toyota isn't allowing dealers to take orders or deposits on them right now. I got put on a "hand raisers" waitlist and once some stock is available for ordering they'll get in touch. Any stock they get is going straight to leasing apparently.

Looks like it'll be several months before anyone can check one out.
