Good god some people are oblivious. The news agencies that report this shit should really look inwards at how stupid they look.

This has been talked and reported on for months.

Fully vaccinated people can still contract, travel with and transmit the bug, they just have a close to zero chance of it affecting them enough for hospitalization.

One good thing about the pandemic is that it's made something like that closer to being reality. I've been working from home for almost a year and a half now and If I knew for certain it would be permanent I'd move north in a heart beat

Lol, y'er in Michigan...how far North can you go?

That must have been hard on the sliders.

U.S. Commerce Department doubles tariffs on Canadian softwood lumber

I understand the reason for it, but for fuck sakes.

If your own industry can't meet demand, how does this do anything put poke a stick in the eye of the average Joe, looking to build a deck or a shed?

michigan fruit cake governor whitler announced today.

saturday may 15 9.00 a.m. no more masks for fully vaccinated people.

july 1st no masks for the unvaccinated.

 

this will be the only thing she ever does right.         

Ever think she's sly as a fox?

The vaccinated are her voting base, the unvaccinated anti maskers are not.

The vaccinated can still carry the vid, but won't suffer.

She won't have to fudge an election after she literally lets her enemies kill themselves off.

Rona gonna be around a long time.

Lol

Many are blaming Biden.

Pretty sure he could barely operate a computer, let alone rise to the level of hacker.

Heard it was a Russian eco hacker group?

I won’t do ABS sensors either.  I don’t trust any China electrical parts.  Tired of getting burned on them. Depending on difficulty of putting rack in .  8 hr job... no way.  They only want to reimburse you for the part. 

True that. I've put two NAPA sensors in my 2008 AWD Chevy van, right rear. Cleaned the mount, cleaned the trigger wheel, every time but it still fails a month or so later, if it hits a bump it loses info. Self resets while driving, but still annoying.

Thankfully I bit the bullet and bought a high end scan tool ($2000) last year that gets deep into the modules, (this van has a dozen or so) online updates, real time data etc. I could see with a road test that piece of shit sensor sending whacky data.

Did a brake job on the AWD with stability control, needed calipers. I spent a day trying to bleed the rear brakes, with a vacuum bleeder. Nothing. Like drive through the garage door nothing.

The thing has steering input sensors, roll over sensors. Like fuck, it ain't the starship Enterprise. Dumb it down for us good drivers.

Without a high end scan tool, activating the brake controller while it tells you what to do.... and a second person you'd blow your brains out.

fuck granny who was too stupid to get the jab  No one is responsible to protect those who won't protect themselves

Granny didn't get the jab.

She lived in New York and Cuomo stuffed her in a cesspool of the Vid.

That was her problem...

There’s no holding back locally. The bottleneck has been materials. History is repeating itself. The pandemic of 1918 saw the incredible growth of the 1920’s. This will be the same. There’s a tremendous amount of money sitting on the sidelines. Look at the prices of collector items such as cars and even stuff like trading cards. It’s insane 

Our housing market is insane. House values going way up. I could not afford to buy my place now.

Dems don't want the pandemic to end.  As long as they can keep folks believing there's catastrophe around the corner, they can keep ramming through trillions of dollars of bullshit.  It's also an excellent distraction to the crap they're trying to force through with HR1.

Does it really matter? Don't the Dem's have full control of everything? Are you not basically on the Titanic and Captain Joe says full speed ahead into the ice field? 2 years of fuckerry until the next election of Congress?

Correct me if I'm wrong

It's cute thinking you will get the jab... in Canada...

True dat. Our leaders are inept Truedopes. Our PM put much of our hope in the Chinese, he likes the Chinese Communist Party, and they fucked us over. You guys have helped us with vaccines a few times. We're not at your level of vaccinations, but doing ok. We have a bigger land mass, less people so it's not as bad....unless you live in a high density urban environment.

They're way worse off than us rednecks that live away from high density...like me.

So the masks can come off and we can go back to full capacity for vaccinated people, right?  And then we go back to normal when everyone who wants the vaccine can get it?

No, they actually shouldn't...within reason.

If everyone gets vaccinated, yes, full capacity go back to normal...but

It ain't rocket appliances. 

If someone is vaccinated, they are far less likely (nothing is %100) to get really sick with the China virus, but they can however still carry the Vid with them and spread it around, affecting those that ain't Rona protected.

It's a simple as this. I get the jab, but I run into Bob that did too get the jab. We are fine. So Bob was carrying the Rona, passed it to me. Neither of us know it 'cause we are fine. I go visit granny, who didn't get the jab..she's now got the Vid and gonna die.

If someone doesn't get the needle, they will always be in danger of catching the death sentance.

Heard a news story today that a large portion of the US population ain't gonna get the jab. Enough to make herd immunity unobtainable. That means the Wuhan flu will be around much longer, and effect those that didn't get the jab for a long time.

Sucks balls 'cause I ain't getting the jab...but I don't like being around people anyway so I ain't gonna get the Rona or spread it.

Sad part is,  it was correct before and after.

Y'er all as fucked as we are with Trudope at the helm.

It will look like the first robocop movie.

Better start arming some of those 4 legged dog type drones.

They just want to scare anyone and everyone so that other people won't challenge them. 

There is a difference between having evidence of corruption and skullduggery and just calling everything corrupt.

Many right wing radio hosts and news organizations will be held to account for such.

I listen to many radio hosts out of the US on my app, they were crazy on the conspiracy theories.

They will now be held to account.

I'd be no different if it were left wing.

is this the trooper you are talking about because its a merc G wagon those GMs... are from the 2001+ also 

 

 

lol out military is shitty enough we don't need to knock it down another peg.!!

Yep G wagon.

One of the only green fleet vehicles I'm certified to drive. 

They are actually pretty capable, for a low power, diesel grocery getter. The 4x4 system allows for full lock up and it can go through quite a bit.

Also certified to drive this. BV 206. While slow as fuck, it beats a snowmobile for comfort in -60, 500 miles from the North pole...from experience..

I bought a couple cheap drones as starters, knowing full well they'd be destroyed.

One got fully fucked. One got taken away in the wind. It's somewhere in the pine trees out back I'm sure.

Spent $500 on a Holy Stone 720. Quite pleased with it's performance for such a good price.

I may be cynical, but I think BRP was on to something early on. That's a first.

They saw Truedope hand almost every undeserving Canadian a boat load of Trudollars (as BRP has got lots of), and the used sled market go crazy.

Why buy a beat to death 2004 Mxz 800 for 7k when you can pony up some free money for a new Mach Z?

BRP double dips the Canadian taxpayer FTW!!

Time to buy their stocks!

Based on all of the whining and bitching over the current price nobody would ever pay for a purpose built engine in a limited run sled.  Also, 220HP stock and everyone would be bitching and whining about how it should have been 250HP.  

Yes, really low to the ground so it handles like complete dog shit and everyone can bitch and moan some more about that.

Actually most owners not only like their 1000 sdi mach's they actually love them - when they are not clapped out in the shop.  No geometry class needed if you can just ride.....

True on most of that.

All will bitch it ain't more hp.

Disagree on the handling. Low to the ground works great in a smooth groomed trail. 

Blown a couple 1000 sdi's. They are unreliable..but when they work, they work well.

Can't get motors or many parts for the 1000 sdi, so they will just fade away into unobtainium.
