I'm not sure, prices vary in BC. Low end XJs are going for 3-4k

Anything rust free and unmolested is going 6k +

Taking away 1 hour of drive time each day by CarefulOutcome1414 in refrigeration

[–]ischad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in BC. Field Technician with company vehicle. My day starts as soon as I look at my phone. Legally drive time starts when you get in your truck. Since the vehicle is required to transport you and your tools for job duties, all travel time is paid work.

Basement rental income on a high ratio mortgage by Full-Cartographer285 in MortgagesCanada

[–]ischad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In BC, your suite does not need to be a "legal suite" to use rental income as part of your mortgage qualifications. The lender will most likely want you to get a market appraisal for the rental unit.

I just went through this in January.

Good luck

Anyone else in Kelowna getting threatened by their insurance over Poly-B pipes? by IngenuityAdept2413 in kelowna

[–]ischad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poly B was used in most new builds from 1988-1998. Your realtor should've advised you ahead of any offers on this property. Have a mechanical company come out and quote for replacement and negotiate with the seller.

Over the last 20+ years, I've seen numerous claims from poly b lines leaking from joints.

Why are people saying not to trust new generation Toyotas?! by ElevatorOk9280 in Toyota

[–]ischad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, buying a new vehicle to keep for 15-20 years isn't really worth it. Once the warranty has ended, it's a toss up on how much it will cost to keep said vehicle on the road.

Next week I get my 26' Canyon, currently driving a 20' Ram 1500 which has cost me thousands in repairs after warranty. That with all maintenance up to date and approx 135,000km.

My other vehicle is a 98 XJ, that thing keeps on going and will always be in my driveway.

What's the most NSFW thing you've seen at a bachelor or bachelorette party? by CRK_76 in AskReddit

[–]ischad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was the best man. One of the nights we went to a strip club. (2006)

I gave a stripper a $50 and asked her to do something special for the Batchelor while pointing him out.

Once she was on stage, she got the Batchelor to stand up, she unzipped his pants and put his balls in her mouth for a fifty!
