Ran into a longtime friend Saturday evening. He was driving his KillerK, a car that's been in his family since new.  IIRC, it has less than 100,000 kms on it.  He's a body man, so it's in very good condition.



Does it have the 2.2 or the optional 2.5 engine?

2.2

Saw a blue C8 Corvette on Saturday, looked great!


Choosing a car based on reliability is like choosing a wife based solely because she is punctual. There is more to it than that...

Saskatoons show and shine was this weekend.  Obviously there was no car show but people took to cruising 8th street with their rides as is the tradition. In laws had their rides out in full force. I spent the night cruising in the FILs 64 Olds Dynamic 88 convert. He’s also got the ‘29 Ford rod shown. Purple truck is my BIL and orange one is the nephews.

Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.

I've never seen the will though.  Would it be bad of me to ask ?   :P

The Olds is now on the Saskatoon Star Phoenix Facebook cover page.  You can see me and the Mrs.  We're famous.  Well, at least the car is getting some attention.

Saw a Bentley Bentayga in Newfoundland, which seems odd. Why not just get a Range Rover or G-wagen that you can actually buy and service locally?

Does Saint John's even have a Land Rover dealership?  But I'm with you, who in their right mind would have a Bentayga on the rock.

Yup, there's a combined Volvo/Land Rover/Jaguar store.
