My L2 is inside and I pinch the cable when a friend visits with an EV. Have a coiled cable so just careful with ensuring how the cable lays when the door comes down. I also have a holster for the charger outside so when I used it I didn’t have to open the door in the mornings.

It was a great option as an EV...until the real world specs came out. Low range, low rate of charge, high price....VW reliability... More negatives than positives. At 50k one could understand the shortcomings...at 70-80-90k...no thanks. If I could find an EV currently to replace my Maverick...

If it was in my budget...100% would buy one. Hell even used / old Urals are going for stupid money (in my opinion) and I can't justify them. But for a sidecar where I could take the kids/wife/dog for a quick boot around the neighbourhood...I'd love one.

RIP Officer Brandon Malcolm... https://toronto.citynews.ca/2026/04/27/opp-officer-killed-in-cobourg-motorcycle-crash/

If Honda can squeeze 47hp out of their 500cc motor...I'm sure that Ural can build / source a motor that provides something similar. Hopefully the 500cc Ural will be able to haul this thing with the added weight of fuel, gear, and passenger...it'll be great for side roads, but 400 series Highway...

You working at a dealership that sells these?

Apparently single vehicle OPP motorcycle fatality. OPP cruiser crashes into a vehicle that stopped to help the OPP officer that died in the motorcycle crash.

Toss some seats in there and a second sliding door and KIA has a winner...so long as it's under 80k.

Been seeing more of the IDBUZZ around recently so I thought I'd look into it... Range is 60-90k for a new/demo unit...no thanks. Which is too bad because it's really growing on me and I'd consider it as a viable replacement for the Odyssey (regardless of how my wife feels about the look)...

Ugh...RIP rider.

Wasn't sure where to post this but it's related to developing a property in Clearview Township...what a read... https://byblacks.com/news/item/3880-i-bought-land-in-small-town-ontario-it-turned-into-the-fight-of-my-life

Good thing I have three separate levels. Pop them up onto the shed, walk them up to the main roof. But in all honesty, highly doubtful my wife will let me do the roof solo...

GWS to all involved
