Ian scared me for a moment. There's a few $$ there.

I'm sure you're right Wayne. Can't wait.

Bought a set of Toyo Garit KX's for the 3. I'm sure it's going to work well too. I'm still looking for wheels for it though and have to pull the trigger soon.

^^ I've been running Toyo Garits on my car since I got it - very good tires.

I'm changing over the cars to winters on Saturday.

If I can just find one of these, I'm ready for anything winter can throw at us. Any of you guys knit? crochet? ...nobody?

I was watching Breakfast Television (The morning show in Toronto) and some people from Bancroft sent in pictures of snow covered roads and cars, from last night! Nooooo! That's about 3 hours away driving distance. Yup, the winter tires are going on soon lol.

3 hours away from where "I" live, which isn't Toronto lol

Either way, the closer Bancroft is the more I don't want to hear about it. I don't want to hear about places with snow close to me! haha

Wow, I remember those pictures from last November Wayne. We got snow (that stayed) last November as well but I have no idea what the date was. I just hope we don't get a winter like we gotten the last two. It's a LONG azz year when you have a brutal winter followed by a sh!tty summer!
