yeah this thread is funny...

some times it totally dies out...








btw, the weather here SUCKS!!!

even Medicine Hat yesterday at roughly 5pm was nearly 30 degrees outside - and here the high today is 23!?!

All of the prairies were nice & hot, and here we get the shaft, with it being relatively cool...
aside from doing the drive twice in two weeks, I'm looking forward to being back in Winnipeg shortly... our summers suck.

if all goes well, I should be in great falls montana picking up some car parts...

i did receive an email for the Quarry park show,
We are holding our second annual Quarry Park & Polish Car Show in support of Mothers Against Drunk Driving on September 12, 2010 from 10 AM to 3 PM. We are hoping that you will be able to attend. As before, it’s only a $5 donation to register your car. We have a number of new businesses participating this year in addition to our sponsors from last year.
Last years show was late in the year too - but it had a very diverse, great turnout, and by far the most/best door prizes I have ever seen at a car show ~ almost everyone seemed to leave with something...
any of you guys interested in that one?

I looked it up ~ wow!!

i am selling my 09 cobalt ss/tc cheap!!! car runs perfect, have to sell because i cant be insured on it any more
most recent add:

posted: Aug. 2/2010
mileage: 59,000km
im am sellin my 2009 turbocharged cobalt ss. basiclly stock other then a AEM old air intake. car runs perfect! about half of the kms on it are highway driven from calgary to nova scotia! i would love to keep the car but my insurance on it has gone way up recently so i can no longer afford to keep it!
notice he changed the pictures, and updated the mileage!?

that one seems to be a smoking deal - even if the KM's are terribly high...

I'd wager a guess by one of the pics in the first listing that he has a bad driving record which is raising hte insurance... anyone cae to guess which picture I'm speaking of?

last January/February someone was selling another black on black '09 ~ that one had an asking price of $25k, and 40,000km's ~ the seller tried to explain that those km's were from driving to Las Vegas & back or something - too bad you'ld probably need to do the round trip at least five times in order to rack up those km's...

I thought I got a good deal being that I managed to get roughly 30% off MSRP ~ but that's yet another (aprox) 35% less than I paid! (or roughly 49% MSRP)
Sucks to be in his shoes for sure ~ but that's a smoking deal!!
