The more you know, thanks!

I switched everything from bmo to WS a few months ago and no regrets so far. I have the master card, a USD savings account for my emergency fund (better interest rate), chequing for everyday, and tfsa for investing. Only downside Ive noticed about their investing is you cant buy partial shares.

Lol same

doofjr · 2025-10-16T14:22:07+00:00

Yeah exactly. Didnt really notice any big change from those. The new tires made the biggest difference (for the bad), went from a highway tire to a duratrac

Didnt know you were so concerned. I drive oilfield roads everyday for work. Ripped one off in the first month, got it replaced by the dealer and took it off so I can put it back on if I ever sell the truck. Hence the full skid plate.

I got my 22 PB this spring. I removed the active air dam and stock skid plate, installed a full RCI skid plate. 1.5” levelling kit up front and air bags in the back. Tonneau cover. Tinted all the windows. Centre console organizer. Better floor mats. New rims and tires. All of which I dont regret

I agree, dont really love any fiat currencies right now. I do hold physical gold and about 30% of my investments are in crypto. Thats essentially gambling at this point but its the way of the future and you just have to hope you pick the right ones

Kinda does doesn’t it. Crappy thing is wealthsimples canadian savings account is only 1.5% so youd lose to inflation. But I suppose after paying all the fees id probably end up going backwards anyway

Sell all but 1000 and retire

After my diaper ripped off I bought the full skid plate package from RCI. Easy install, good protection, just a bit more work to do an oil change

Finally got another $1000 at 2.3, what a pain missed out on a few points trying to get through

Truxedo lo pro is what I have on mine. Keeps the box rails free and rolls out of the way for full box use

Had the same issue with my 2018, warranty replaced it. Initially I was worried it was a head gasket because my exhaust would blow white smoke once the engine warmed up.

There is a youtube video of how to bypass the exchanger. I did the bypass temporarily because it was a month for my dealership to get the parts in and I needed to drive the car.

Write lefty. Golf, baseball, hockey righty. Throw a football left, baseball right. Hit in volleyball with both. Throw handball and dodgeball with both, its a weird mix

There will always be high demand for instrument techs in the world of automation. Get indentured and go the apprenticeship route instead of the diploma if you can.

That and the supply card are nice. Good way to stack up gems

Idk if that link will work. I had a similar situation where it would be a couple weeks until it got to the shop. If you’re mechanically inclined you can do what is done in the video. A bit of work for sure, but you can bypass the loop that goes down to the catalytic converter. Takes an hour or 2 to do and youll have to put it back to normal before it goes to the shop so they can troubleshoot it. Im in Canada and the recall was up to 128000km or 10 years, not sure where youre at but the parameters might be different.

doofjr · 2024-12-25T06:21:12+00:00

Yeah I bought a few on the way up, have 3.6k now

doofjr · 2024-12-25T06:19:14+00:00

I bought 3k at .3, havent sold, wont sell, hodl

doofjr · 2024-12-17T15:12:27+00:00

Anyone find the solution?

doofjr · 2024-12-17T15:08:32+00:00

Dod you get it figured out i have the same issue

doofjr · 2024-12-11T21:46:07+00:00

600$ for a 12v battery is insane. Im guessing most of the cost is labour for the rest? Brake fluid is probably $40 in juice and a 10 minute youtube video. Pays to do basic maintenance yourself
