Trimflation has always been a problem but it has gotten a little out of hand. That profit number is an interesting point to start with.

Tim Hortons is like a craze here in Canada. I know a lot of people that brew Tim hortons coffee at home every morning then stop by the Tim’s drive through on the way to work. You can’t swing a dead cat without hitting a Tim Horton’s in my area. The Timmie’s are crazy busy in the mornings. I’m...

I find it funny that as soon as the consumer reports report came out one of my YT suggested videos had a click bait one claiming a vehicle had a 97% failure rate. Sounds like a Hyundai pony from back in the day. I wouldn’t click on it… I take all of the survey results with a grain of salt unless...

Very accurate…I have 2 and one has a big dent in the lid… I probably didn’t tie it down well enough and took it down some gravel roads… I remember hearing it rolling around in the bed.

Most of what Tim covered were things that don’t really bother me. The old packaging game has frustrated me for ages going back to my 1st truck purchase in 1994. It’s unavoidable I guess. I’ve opted out of vehicles in the past due to the fact I would want 3 different things and they would all be...

I use a different brand (mine is probably a more budget version purchased many years ago) but they are great.

I think we all have some variation on what we need to carry with us. To accommodate my extra gear I had purchased some deeper under back seat storage for my 2023 Ram crew cab. Under the seat and in the floor storage bins I keep some basic tools including needle nose pliers and extra line for...

I’m interested to hear your experiences when you get it.

I’m marginally intrigued at the concept. It’s not what I would need but I wonder if this would be a good fit for mobile shop guys etc. they wouldn’t necessarily want the crew cab and would want the extra bed space with a security cap for tools like for locksmiths etc. My main skepticism will be...

I did like the overall design. Mine looked like the following

My 3.0 liter back then was 140 hp(I looked it up). There was a 4.0 liter option back then with 20 more hp and probably way more torque. Your 4.0 ranger is listed at 207 hp in google… quite the difference. That 3.0 liter would force me to take a run at hills on the 2 lane highways if (I was...

Great coverage on the story Tim. What a cluster this trade war has become.

They were a great size of vehicle… mine was a 2002 with the extra cab rather than a crew cab so.. the bigger box. Handy for my our rental property and for towing my boat and working on the finishing of our cottage. That v8 was quick. Had to watch the mechanical limited slip when slippery. My...

I agree in part. I used to own a Dakota with a V8… great truck… a pipe dream now.

I think I have some clothes in my closet that are 20. :) I’m retired so I’m more laid back now… I still go after things like a building project, shovelling gravel or chainsawing firewood like I’m still in my 40’s ….Sometimes I pay for it right away and have to stop or sometimes it just makes me...

I’m excited to see what they offer. They need to make some good offers to keep from losing any more market share.

Sounds like a great time to change. You may need some recovery time from the massage work as well. It’s good to keep active. Try to keep from getting too frustrated. Easy for me to say… patience is not one of my strong suits. Lol

lol, I hear that… We all cope as we can. At 61, old injuries start to creep up… the compressed L1 in my back from a fall 20 years ago and the temperamental knee problems for the last 40 years. I’m thankful for my mobility. My approach is to keep an open mind and to do as many different kinds of...

That sounds pretty heavy duty… I was just thinking of over the counter Ibuprofen or something similar. Depends on your symptoms. For my back the Robax (ibuprofen + muscle relaxant) would slowly help. For my knee when it gets too inflamed just an ibuprofen. Just a thought… may need to talk to the...

I’m sorry to hear that Tim. Hang in there. Hopefully you can get some relief going forward with the massage therapist. I know my physiotherapists for my knee then my back were really great. I must be having some sympathy pain for you.. my knee locked up 2 days ago first time in almost a year...
