    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Same. If I had the funds I'd pick one up. Hell I'm still trying to wrangle an older MX-5 as a toy/project car, but I won't go down that rabbit hole.

    Oh man...this could be fun... https://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/neuheiten/exklusiv-naechster-mx-5-kommt-mit-elektroantrieb-bestaetigung-vom-mazda-chef/ Will need to turn on English translation...but effectively the MX-5 next gen is expected to be an EV.

    COVID and the housing market

    With currently going through the motions of taking over the parents' cottage in Wasaga, one of our thoughts is to just rent it out long term for a few years while we pay down the CG. Obviously some changes / upgrades are needed to appeal to people, but I'm doing some research on Wasaga Beach...

    COVID and the housing market

    I need to find more shady customers for MP renovations. I'll be happy to take cash for them and give out receipts for the work.

    COVID and the housing market

    Fair point. As to the builder comments you mention...seen that a million times. Young guys / families would buy a house to reno and flip...rinse and repeat. One house to live in, one to reno, and one to rent. Basically move through them and acquire more properties. Sadly this also allows...

    COVID and the housing market

    This place is a stone's throw from my parents' house and I see it every time I go visit them. Monster home that is in no way within the 'character' of the neighbourhood. Not sure how the hell this got approved. Good luck for 3.3M. EDIT: Fun fact, this house listed is $2k/year less on...

    FRAM Goes Bankrupt - Founder frigs off with $700 million

    Damnit…why was I born poor and with a conscience without the knack to rip others off. Seems the only people getting f$&ked are the honest ones. Meanwhile crooks make out like…well I guess…bandits.

    Bike lift capacity

    Looking to sell my lift table and cannot for the life of me find the capacity rating. No tags or marker plates anywhere. How would one get that info?

    Soon to be Harley owner?

    Good to hear that. More options / choice in any segment is always good. Sadly I’ve seen maybe 2-3 in my lifetime on the road.

    Where to get a puppy?

    Good glad to hear it. Our neighbour's dog started and graduated...totally different dog after 3 classes. But his owner is diligent with daily walks and practice.

    Where to get a puppy?

    So I've heard / read. A few neighbours on our street took their dogs there and all highly recommend his school...but do state that he's very strict and will call you out if you're not doing what you're told.

    Where to get a puppy?

    We just signed up Lucy for training at 'Beyond the Leash'. She's coming up on 1 year, and she's becoming unbearable recently. Barking, grabbing things (toys, shoes, etc), and just overall annoying. We love her, and she's a great dog, but obviously we're not providing her with the proper...

    Science news of the day

    Helps them feel 'different', not be part of the 'simpletons', makes them feel like they 'know something that others don't', etc etc... And some of them are just doing it for a laugh.
