a lot of the forecasts are varying significantly for Thursday. They all use the same raw data from environment Canada and then do their own predictions

 

 

I look at instant weather on FB now and they seem to be pretty well nuts on for the weather.  They are calling right now for us to receive 30-70 cm's of snow by sunday.  Orillia is on the line for 30-50 and the 50-70

Factory Recreation in Midland or Quinns in Pefferlaw.

I called St Onge, they had nothing and did not want to do anything unless I put down a deposit for them to look.  Bye Bye.

I called Factory Rec and they were nice enough to quote me, but had no inventory but said they could get me what I wanted.  Still on the list.

At this point I have decided I want to snow check a sled for next year and it will be between a Poo Assault/XCR or a Doo Adrenaline.  Its 50/50 at this point.

Kev good service is really judged only when something goes wrong and how well that gets corrected.

 

A good sale means very little.

They weren't too helpful when I drove up to see if they had any leftovers back in '07 for the No No No end of season clearout. The clown that answered the phone @ Machine Racing (long gone) acted like he'd never heard of the promotion. BRP had a quarter page ad in the Sun FFS!

Try Snow City.  I've had 99% good dealings with them.  The one time there was an issue, I e-mailed George directly, and he took care of it.

I'm gonna snow check one.  I can call to see if they have any demo's to try but man Doo dealers think the product sells itself.

I once asked for a quote on an ATV, I believe from Rocco.  He told he could knock $500 off list after he drove the shit out of one he would be demoing that weekend.:lol:

I told him I didn't want used.:lol:

On the way home yesterday I thought it wad odd. Saw a Nissan GTR on the 401 then going north on the 400 I heard a roar but all I saw in the mirror was the taillights of a Ferrari which was going south near Finch. Unlike you though, I kept my hands on the wheel, no pictures.

Guys that are that rich dont care about the road conditions.   My buddy owns a Porsche dealership and he says the majority of 911 owners drive them year round.  There is a chinese kid in Stratford that has snow tires on his Lambo.

228miles today after a 1am wake up call to salt in etobicoke. Most was a nice ride. Odd spot had some serious drifting challenges to get through. 

510miles on the season now. Not a bad start for me.

I'm sure you are loving the new ride!

You are confused, that is not an average car....but if I recall, you were comparing an average Vette to these....:fluffy:

Exactly what I felt when I first looked at Doo years ago.

Machine turned me completely off them and there was no effort to try and sell the sled, it was as if they were doing me a favour to sell me one, so unfortunately I took Doo off my list....

Snowzilla.  Hope it pans out but am waiting for them to post their forecast again.  TWN has already dropped Saturdays sow from 20cm to 3cm but upped the rain tomorrow to 20mm

Not sure.  Some spots look good bot others not so good for ice.
