I did, looks fine.  I thought maybe it was my proxy server so I just tried my phone.  Still don't see the issue.  Now I'm curious.

Seems to be based on how your cache is set up as some of the IT guys couldn't see it at first either.  It is getting restored as we speak.

Do you realize that in about 30 (updated as requested) years, we'll have millions of old ladies running around with tattoos?

Choosing a car based on reliability is like choosing a wife based solely because she is punctual. There is more to it than that...

My impressions are that the new site is an improvement, however still some things i do not like - here is what i do would do in order of priority:

1.  I always want to view an article on a single page - I also want the site to remember my choice using cookies so I do not have to click "view article on 1 page" each time I want to read something - used to annoy me on the old site.
2.  The new page header is so large - on my 1050px high monitor resolution the words autos.ca banner, navigation and some advertising take up almost 60% of initial screen real estate.   I am constantly scrolling down to see what else I can read.
3.  Grey text - not good
4.  Fonts look a little odd when zooming - I use zoom because of point 2 above.

thanks!

Saurus!

What I think?
Autos.ca is total garbage compare to old and trusty canadiandriver.
It looks like it was outsourced to make more profit for management and nobody cares about canadain readers anymore.
Crap it is. Period. >:(
