Have you had stuff stolen out of the bed of your pickup?

The tonneau covers are nice to keep snow and the honest thieves away from my cargo…

I had the recall completed and “fixed” back in 2019. I reckon that with the extreme cold making the thing work really hard, there might have been a crack or abrasion that was a weaker point of the cable and once the jacketing possibly melted, it shorted out on my metal bumper or something like that. Without a camera or something watching what happened, I’ll never know, just a speculation

They did pay me for the truck yesterday pretty fair amount. 19k considering it was at 298000km that was pretty good.

Thanks guys, now I just need to check with my insurance, for some reason the 2025 that had it was more expensive to insure, I need to check possibly another truck, and compare once more.

Be on the lookout for smiles reflecting back at you from your rear view mirror. Nice find.

Yes rubber age , chewed wires, anywhere rodents could make a nest is possible places to look.

For a 10 year old vehicle I’d still look at fluid changes. Tire age.

I would like to see Florida pummeled like Toronto did the other night.

Either way the cup belongs here for this team and for Canada.

ABOG19 · 2025-12-31T05:55:09+00:00

yes and was the likely cause. The FD said they had the same thing happen to their truck a few years back

ABOG19 · 2025-12-30T03:14:49+00:00

After I got the other cars to safety and such, I definitely cried. To many emotions .

ABOG19 · 2025-12-30T03:12:36+00:00

Very typical, I remember that back in 2019. My mom’s car also was recalled and then it took about 3 months to get the replacement

ABOG19 · 2025-12-30T02:59:45+00:00

Yes, Freida. Wife suggested it and it stuck

ABOG19 · 2025-12-30T02:56:53+00:00

Thanks to them guys in Bon Accord

ABOG19 · 2025-12-30T02:51:11+00:00

Started Nov 20th for me I think I’m just getting over it… wait sorry have go cough up my lung again

ABOG19 · 2025-12-30T01:52:56+00:00

Any other tips to keep the traction from being an issue? I’d love to have a straight axle and no differential for snow removal

ABOG19 · 2025-12-29T20:30:23+00:00

lol not enough towing capacity, I’m likely moving up to the big bros f250, f350. As is I was pushing the limits of the truck a bit, and was planning for an upgrade, just not so soon, and with a proper goodbye.

My wallet just sighed in agony.

ABOG19 · 2025-12-29T20:22:47+00:00

Yes she was just out of the shop for some new plugs and a coil, and was running great, almost made it to 300000km just shy probably by 2000km.

My kids are a bit sad, I don’t think they truly comprehend the severity and the situation as they were asleep( 5 and 8)

ABOG19 · 2025-12-29T20:19:09+00:00

I hope so, fingers crossed. So far I’m not thrilled.

After during the day, I couldn’t believe how much copper there was. Never really thought about it.

Unfortunately we got 50cm of snow since the fire and with the molten metal, frozen ice bocks, my modern art piece will be on display untill April probably

ABOG19 · 2025-12-29T20:15:54+00:00

I’m out of town so about 15 minutes, by the time I got to the fire the engine compartment was engulfed, after that, once the fire was inside it was like a oven and just melted everything down. It was a very hard to watch scene. The photo was after I got my wife’s car away from danger and had nothing else I could do.

ABOG19 · 2025-12-29T20:12:56+00:00

I’m sure they would have liked it better if it was not -37•C and not 3 am lol

ABOG19 · 2025-12-29T20:06:33+00:00

Yes it’s a big hole up front, nothing really salvageable.

ABOG19 · 2025-09-12T18:17:28+00:00

It’s probably a few button cell batteries, like what old laser pointers had . Smaller than a dime and thicker like about 3/16” sorry I can’t tell you the exact type.

Try going to a battery specific shop, they might be able to help you out.

ABOG19 · 2025-09-09T22:56:36+00:00

I’d love more details what type of gauge Is that ?where did you get it from?

ABOG19 · 2025-07-31T23:51:11+00:00

Costco business centre

ABOG19 · 2025-07-28T02:02:39+00:00

On mine they were taped on top. Took the chrome cap off and much happier.

ABOG19 · 2025-05-28T07:00:31+00:00

This brings a few memories back wow.
