    Elon taking over Twitter??

    I have a strange feeling that down the road Elon will end up dropping way down the richest lists. Nothing he does seems to actually turn any meaningfull profit apart from IMHO inflated stock prices to support the valuations and his let's say zany antics may end up costing him in the end as his...

    Higher production is really the only path to lower prices overall, but saying government has no control over domestic gas prices to me is silly. To me this list of countries and the average fuel prices contradicts that. Non oil producers are stuck with the global price, but oil producing nations...

    All Electric Ram

    Yeah, works for certain circumstances and those are what they need to market to. I'll still be gas for a while as I frequently drive in areas where the distance between service stations or charge stations exceed the range when loaded. Can't imagine how long it will be before long haul truckers...

    All Electric Ram

    To me it makes sense to make it appeal to the people in the city that typically buy the crew cab short box and don't tow or actually use it as a truck. With the towing range and fully loaded ranges on current batteries that's the primary market at the moment for them. Local contractors I can see...

    Taxes.

    I don't know how it can get much higher. High earners. Which you have to be to afford our outrageously priced housing get into a 53% income tax in my province. Just under 58% in Quebec. Our property tax is generally pretty high. Carbon tax on all energy products.sales taxes including on new...

    Electric vehicles

    Lol. As long as it's done in another country we're saving the planet. Funny that the way to meet emissions targets is not to lower consumption, but instead emit somewhere else. Kind of seems like cheating and a load of BS if you ask me, but what do I know. I'm not a politician.

    Elon taking over Twitter??

    Or some group on the left will put in a bigger bid to try to keep it the way it is or push it further and start a bidding war. Or he dumps his stock and takes the money he already made before he pulls his takeover bid for whatever reason he figures will be acceptable enough to justify it. Never...

    What’s your favorite part of detailing…

    Not sure if my favourite part of detailing is the end result or the beer. It definitely isn't the carpet shampooing or crawling underneath to clean the chassis.

    Elon taking over Twitter??

    My guess is another platform to use for market manipulation, but happy thoughts that it's to even the playing field for the right.

    Should come down soon. Most of the surrounding areas are down to 1.90 or so. I'm in Grande prairie, Alberta working right now and filled at the Cosco for 141.9 . I'll fill a few Jerry cans to fill the truck when I get home while I'm out here. Almost a hundred bucks savings at that price.

    Getting stupid here. If border crossing wasn't such a headache still I'd pop across the border to the super duper and save almost 3 bucks US per gallon. I'm so close and get some cheap dairy and free eggs for filling up at the same time.

    Go to Scotland and if you can understand English there then you can understand it anywhere.

    If you could only eat one type of food the rest of your life, what would it be?

    Some Chinese restaurants sell burgers. Does that mean it counts as chinese?

    If you could only eat one type of food the rest of your life, what would it be?

    American Chinese food minus the MSG would probably be the most healthy. Plenty of options without going near the stuff I find disgusting, but I like burgers too much to give them up.

    Current gas prices in your area

    Yes, but we don't have the transportation capacity for it. Don't supply our own country because of it and sell at a steep discount as with only 1 small pipeline to coastal waters we can only sell to the US. Our anti pipeline politics are just as bad and has been that way for decades. Add that to...

    maybe the gas prices are scaring off buyers.

    202.9 a litre for 87. So about 8 bucks a gallon CDN, which I think is a bit over 6.50 a gallon US.

    It's an acronym for toasted, roasted and xtinguished as it pertains to the competition. Luckily marketing guys can't spell.
