Saw my first GM Colorado pickup in this blue. Real nice colour. Not a spec on it not even a watermark. Tinted and shined up. Looks better in person.

Without that big bowtie up front, I couldn't tell if that thing was a Toyota, a Chevy or a Nissan. All trucks look pretty much the same to me.

oh it does... it does... rather loud inside the showroom!

had another guy come in willing to "make a quick sale" on his hellcat... i figured that meant around msrp... after all, he already bought it, we can't finance at the lower rates and all that... his idea of quick sale was to lower his asking price from 99k to 89, but no less.

but hey... supply and demand!

Well, if he's from Alberta, then no front plate required.

I enjoy the freedom to leave the front of my car unspoiled, but lots of people put Calgary Flames or Stampeders or whatever else fake plates on the front. I suppose a 1973 Alberta plate is much the same thing.

Back when I had the BMW X3, I was spending more money on petrol than eating out or groceries- not combined, just or the other. It was such a reliable, fun to drive car but I just couldn't afford the 60 $US fill up every week. It averaged around 10,5 l/100km thru its lifetime but I drive a LOT.
