Long time lurker, finally decided to join
« on: January 26, 2017, 03:46:54 pm »
Hello All,

I have been lurking on this website/forum off and on since it was called Canadian Driver... My dad introduced me to it and I have really enjoyed the car reviews from a Canadian perspective. I have had magazine subscriptions in the past to Car and Driver, Sport Compact Car, Honda Tuning... That probably tells you a lot about where my car interests lie. I look forward to joining in the conversations here!

Cheers

On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

 :hello:  Have you completed a 'proper tire pressure' orientation?  ;)

So now you worship at the alter of the brown diesel wagon with tartan seats and a manual transmission?  Excellent.  Welcome.

Diesel, no thanks but I'd be ok with everything else on that list... I'll drive a manual until my left leg falls off or they cease to exist, whichever happens first!

I've been lurking awhile...
Hmm, guessing at least 3 years :P

If your answer to everything isn't Miata or Corolla, then you'd better leave.  :rofl2:
...Or Subaru, generally.

So what made you finally join us?  It was the recent Forester piece, wasn't it. I KNEW it!  ;D
