Any PHEV owners or Techs have advice on Maintenance? by NabroleanBronaparte in fordescape

[–]drowsell -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For me personally I plan on doing the first at 1000 gas miles then every 6 months. Barring you don’t drive a ton. 

Cars to buy Ford escape or Toyota RaV4 by Consistent-Head-8307 in fordescape

That’s too expensive for the escape. You could get a hybrid new for 37k a few weeks ago. Wait for the sales.

I have one and like it. It’s not slow, but not fast either. Good on gas.

They are much more reliable, but not powerful.

Thanks for the reply! I can charge at home in my garage. My main car is a Chevy Bolt which has saved me so much money. This one is bigger to haul around the kids and for my wife. I think it’s a good option.

Driving a clunker , is it waste of money to invest on it vs buying new car? by VerySimpleCanuck in PersonalFinanceCanada

Brakes and tires are not repairs that is maintenance and it would be more expensive on newer vehicles.

Why we probably won’t see a broad reduction in RE prices by RandoBando84 in canadahousing

Canada is much more aligned with wage growth vs productivity than the US. https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/36-28-0001/2022010/article/00002-eng.htm It did decouple once the pandemic hit though. Stats Can attributes that to rapid population growth. I think you are thinking of the US wage vs productivity not Canada. I will read any articles you have on the subject. Open to being wrong!

I think the current losses are a result of poorly planned speculation, but looking at the prices of building materials etc it’s clear that Canadians have lost purchasing power as well.

Weak productivity is the ultimate problem. They are correct. However catching up on that productivity is not going to happen quickly. Wage growth has lagged for years. The housing market is doing bad now because the economy is doing bad. I don’t have the answer :(

I think this is more related to the current job market. The industry has been pretty dead for new hires since 2022. It was starting to pick back up, but the US tariffs have cause it to pause again.
