Topic: Interesting things seen on the way to work thread

I always liked the X-trail, aside from the instrument panel being in the middle of the dash. The SE and LE models had a giant moonroof for the time. I still think a manual SE would be a neat car to have.

I think they were one of a few CUV's that were sold in Canada but not the US also.

Yeah that's right.

Last of the simple, boxy CUV runabouts. Right before the  "ipad glued to the dash, a ton of dubious safety sensors and a price tag of $40k."  era.

I still see a few X-trails on the road. I much prefer it compared to the Rogue that replaced it after a few years.

Some people shouldn't be allowed to own cars.

A couple of hours ago I saw a replica of the Mad Max V8 Interceptor on the back of a tow-truck heading east on the 401

Canadiana at it's finest.   The owner/driver should be awarded the Order of Canada.

LCBO. Liquor Control Board. They still refer to it as liquor control?  Land of the free I see. Nice custom BTW.

LCBO is probably the premium booze delivery system in the world.  They are the largest single buyer on booze in the world.

From NYC to Newport Beach CA and all points in between.   In comparison to LCBO, just pathetic.  Same with all Provinces with the exception of Quebec, but still nowhere near Ontario.

The LCBO name originates from the olden days.  When I was 16 one entered the building.  Nothing on display.  You went to the counter and got a paper slip and a pencil.  Then you were required to write down what you wanted and hand that slip to a dude behind the counter and he would disappear into the back and come back with the bottle already in a paper bag.

If you could not speak English or write English, and many people in Toronto could not, the guys would fill it out for you.  I never got asked for ID, but the guys behind the counter, usually 5, in my case due to my height, didn't give a hoot.  I was very popular in grade 12 and 13.

In all fairness, he walked straight into that one.

Yep, he put it right over the plate.

F150 regular cab, short box.  It's been a while since I've seen one.

I saw a Honda Crosstour this morning.  I used to think these were such an abomination back when they were released.  Now, with all the hunchback styling and AWD vehicle popularity, the Crosstour might actually do OK in today's market.  Better than in 2010 anyway.
