To your point, I believe oils have gotten to the point that temp doesn't make much difference either. Fuel consumption is definitely much worse in the cold though. The car model makes a huge difference as well. Try to find a 15 year old Mazda without any rust, unless the car has lived it's...

Steve and Mike, I've used self-leveller quite a few times, and unfortunately it won't work here. I need to create slope, not just fill it in. I want the water to run toward the garage door and out of the garage. I just don't know if a mortar exists that can be built up, feathered to nothing...

The floor in my garage isn't sloped properly and when snow melts off my car the water pools at the back of the garage. Is there a mortar I can buy so that I can build up parts of the floor to change the slope? I need something that will actually bond with the concrete that's already there. I...

Glass onion - entertaining and worth watching Jungleland - slow, but good

Glen Eden was supposed to open for season passes holders today and tomorrow, then open to everyone on Monday. The storm that's coming in changed their plans so it's open to everyone on Monday (closed today and tomorrow).

I bought a bike for parts and ran the VIN on a website to make sure the bike wasn't stolen. Can't remember the site but it wasn't difficult to find. Bike did come with a key as well to further reinforce the fact it wasn't stolen.

And they're expected to earn about $6B from it. Not the best financial investment.

I'm not even kidding. There are more control arms on an Audi than any other car company...ever.

Home Hardware for contractors is the worst of the bunch. You have to setup an account with each individual store. For those that have jobsites that greatly vary locations it's spectacularly useless.

BMW vs Audi engineering.

The contractor rewards for Lowes is much better than HD, but there are not enough stores, the website isn't as good, and the fact that some Rona stores are franchised while others are corporate is a PITA for returns. Buy something in Calgary HD, return it in Fredericton if need be. Definitely...

I absolutely believe debt is a tool, but it isn't used in such a manner. Debt is how governments buy votes, and social idiots buy friends/likes. A large portion of Canada's older population likes Pierre Trudeau because their wages went up and HATED Mulrooney because of GST. Go to the debt...

I stand corrected, good on you.

I'm a bit late to the game since you've bought a bike already, but my suggestion would have been a racer5 or similar track oriented package. You can rent the bike, rent the gear, and actually learn how to ride. My son is still a few years from getting his license but he's done track and races...

With all this 'maintenance' do you guys actually have time to ride your bikes? All I can picture is the coffee shop chrome guys with 15 year old bikes and 3000kms on the odometer.

Now I'm curious, if you've admitted that you're new to bikes and don't know how to fix them, why did you open the stator case? In any case (pun intended) just make sure you didn't damage the gasket and pin it back together. Top up oil and you're good to go.

I am most definitely NOT a socialist, but I'm also not heartless and accept starvation in the streets. We should move toward a workfare system though. No one that I have ever met is completely useless (some where pretty close admittedly). Have these people pickup garbage, plant flowers in...

Exact same problem with Triumph Daytonas and Dunlop slicks. Oddly, I burned through almost the entire length of an abs fender, but when I switched to a Daytona R carbon fender, there's no contact.

I agree with Lightcycle, cap it on everything. Limit debt to xx% of a person's monthly salary. If a company exceeds that percentage, there would be no recourse if the debt isn't repaid. Today you can buy two cars, furnish your house, and outfit the garage with tools without spending any...

Printing copious amounts of money, then handing it out to anyone that asked devalues a currency. If the currency is worth less, and the value of the products hasn't changed, then the price goes up. That's inflation. Anyone except Robert Mugabe can grasp this I assume. I know people that were...
