    Cool joints to eat

    Babas Bistro in Mundare is a favorite stop every time we go to Edmonton. Stawnichys is right across the street so we usually bring home some ribs or something too. And its not quite the area you're looking but the last chance saloon near Drumheller was really cool.

    Jasper is on fire!

    Fires can jump a long way with the right wind and fuel type. One jumped across Okanagan lake just last year and I know multiple people who witnessed the sparks/embers in the air so I don't think lasers were involved lol

    Mid-Sized SUV's

    Had a 2012 RVR, and family had a 2010? outlander. Both were very reliable and got sold around 200k. Haven't had or known anyone with a newer unit. My RVR had the CVT and while I was initially skeptical it did just fine.

    Alberta Heath Care - Doctors and Pharmacists issues

    The whole healthcare situation is a joke nowadays. "Drop in" clinics locally are no longer drop in, you have to wait in line before they open and hope you're one of the first 15ish people. Or call in and hope you're one of the first, but they rarely answer the phone. Thats if they're open, and...

    Commuter Sedan - What would you buy?

    We had a mitsubishi RVR up until a couple years ago and it was great. Owned it from 20k up to 210k with only oil changes/battery/alternator/brakes done. Somewhere around 7l/100 if I remember right, that's going off the dash I never did bother hand calculating. Only reason we sold it was the...

    EV buyers concerns grow beyond charging issues

    I think the City of cold lake installed one somewhere when they bought 2 EVs, but none in Bonnyville that I know of. Thats a major dealbreaker for me on an EV is the lack of infrastructure. Larger cities or even in the southern half of the province you might be ok, but north of Edmonton or...

    Sorry bud, the 858 is a dud!!!!

    Clever of him to try and hide it all in a Cat review but mostly what I got out of that is how much Maxwell actually likes the 9R?

    Heated house floor

    Thats exactly what my house has. For building new I would consider planning ahead for an A/C system. Other than tearing my whole place apart to add ducting my only option now is adding multiple mini split systems in the rooms I want cooled.

    EV charging data....

    Its off topic but this is completely backwards to my experience in the northeast. 5 years ago we used to cut back all the time due to pipeline pressure, but now its a non issue. Even during that -40 snap we still had good pressure throughout.

    AC blast?

    Ya they look good, Definitely a couple years away from the kids riding it by themselves, but figured in the meantime I could bomb around a bit. Not sure the 200's would handle that lol Just looked up the indy lites, there's some of those out there that look pretty decent! thanks for the advice

    AC blast?

    Thanks guys, other family members have had 550's and 570's before so I've been around them a fair bit. Its just kind of a big jump from a 120 to that, and while my kids a pretty good driver he's also on the smaller side so a full size sled might be a bit much. Mainly I just wanted to know if the...

    AC blast?

    So now that they've been out a few years how does everyone feel about these things? I haven't seen one in person yet. I'm looking for a sled mainly just to tow the kids on GT's around the acreage and maybe for them to move up to once they outgrow the 120. As a kid I had a puma 340 and a Z570, I...

    Mid-Sized SUV's

    20 Telluride just rolled over 100K on the weekend. It's been really good, rear shocks got replaced at around 40k but that was covered by warranty. Dealer hadn't seen any others with that issue at the time so Idk if it was a fluke or maybe a first year issue. Kia app was free before but recently...

    Driveway Gates

    Not fancy by any means but I have the typical "hi hog" farm gates with a Ghost controls TDS2 opener. No idea what it cost as it came with the acreage but its pretty handy, basically works like a garage door opener. Obviously anything can be disabled if thieves want in bad enough but its nice to...

    How to watch NHL on TV....

    Are you guys actually getting all the games you want with Sportsnet? Just getting back into hockey this year and signed up for SN through Prime but its a pain, lots of times it'll have only eastern games on all 4 channels.

    Enclosed Trailer - Tandem Towing

    Can anyone from AB confirm this? I was under the impression (and so far my googling has shown) that a class 5 was good for anything as long as the tow vehicle only had 2 axles and the trailer had electric brakes? Air brake endorsement required if the truck has air brakes.
