I just learned that there is no longer a set cost for a Certificate of Inspection (COI) in Manitoba. The cost is determined by the inspection station.  I checked with my garage and they charge a minimum of  $135.

Well that sucks.

^^^Did you sell the Willy's?

Getting a Renegade?

well, I do actually have a renegade... I sure wouldn't replace my willys with one though! that's just my wife's little runabout. my comment was about the last time I traded it in. I've had three willy's edition wranglers now!

if you mean a gladiator, that is possible eventually. we'll have to see!

Crap, I meant a Gladiator, yeah.  Not sure how the hell I confused myself into talking about a Renegade.

Maybe because of when the name originated at Jeep  ;D

Some drug dealers had a shoot out a couple of weeks ago on the ring road here in Edmonton. One of units was brought to our shop after the police were done with it. This thing was riddled with bullet holes.

That's messed up. Have door bullets gone right through?

Yes it was a rental. The rental company had another Durango with a blown engine[their fault]. We took the engine out of this one to put in the one with the blown engine.

Sure have.

That can't be!  In the movies cops duck behind their car doors in a shootout and they are totally safe!  :rofl2:

Some cruiser cars have ballistic protection inside the door panel, making ducking behind their car doors completely legit.

Did that Durango require any, uh, interior cleanup?
