Here are a few pics taken in the past month. All is well but I remain very busy.

My Sube on the job at the Toronto waterfront. In the background two of my children, the "Hamilton Energy" refuelling the deep sea tug "Everlast" during a rare visit of the Everlast from its usual homeport of Saint John:



What is love? Giving your GF your winter wheels because she needs them for her Focus more than I do. My Focus will be up for sale soon anyway plus the Subaru has winter wheels of its own for the bad weather days. I think her car looks awesome with them!:



My Focus on the job in Wallaceburg ON. Congratulate me, I am now (on top of everything else!) in the ethanol business. That is shipping point for inbound corn for ethanol plants near Sarnia and outbound DDG's, a by product of ethanol production that will be sent to Europe/Africa:

My Focus on the job at Lock 3 of Welland Canal while attending a press conference:

nice pics

Were you going to take the lights apart, if you sell your car? not that it matters now bc i already ordered my HID's, but it would of been nice to get a used pair rather then buying them brand new.

Anyways good luck with the sale.
Nice pictures.

Nice pics. I especially like the Subie pic. Not a big fan of the chrome door handles on the focus but other than that it looks good.

What about making sure your GF does NOT park too close to a Fire hydrant? :P

just out of curiosity....how much do you wanna sell your zts for and what do u have in it

Thinking about a price, probably $9499 on autotrader and $500 less for someone from here. There is <90,000km on it mostly highway miles going to and from the Hammer from Toronto. Its a 2001 with leather seats and automatic. Good fuel efficiency the last few years, I've had up to 575km/tank recently.

PM me if you want specific pictures or are interested in looking it over. I am in East York just off the DVP.

......and paulo: I parked her car like that to swap the wheels, she had the green machine that day and I am bigger than you (but not as much as I used to be). Still have a problem? :P :lol:

mo: lights stay on the car when sold, because if I swap back I have to do grills and turn signals as well and then it becomes a pain in the ass. Besides the lights should help with a quick sale, bling is good.

Nice pics (not sure if you'll read this or not)!

So you're just going to stick with the Subbie?

here's where I've been hiding the past 4 weeks...


mind you, it's been snowing constantly and -37 at night since i took that. Best part is I'm driving home Tuesday! Sweet.

Nice pics but I just had to notice this one if only b/c it seems a case of the government wasting our tax dollars... I mean why do they need something the size of a Dodge Magnum? :blink:

^^ It's not the cars we need to worry about, it's the "meetings" they all seem to throw at Tim Horton's.

Is this better?





The Magnum is a 6 cyl by the way, hes a pal of mine. He has to haul a lot of stuff for inspections. The car has strobes and a siren as well.

There is also a Prius in their stable.

Also met with plain clothes RCMP this week, they drive Corollas.

Well, at least with the Smart its not like they'll ever get any speeding tickets :lol:

Re: The Magnum, it just seems an overly large vehicle for the task, I would have thought a smaller wagon would be the first choice (Hell, years ago my dad picked up at auction an '83 K car wagon used by the marnie unit, damn thing had vinyl bench seats and a 4 spd manual... got three years out of that thing not bad for $700)

ugh... did they think if they named it the "smart car" people woundn't look as silly driving it? :P
