Snow?!? Wow, that's a bit early.

Sounds as if you are in for a humdinger of a winter. Last one was kinda snowy, certainly snowier than years past.

yea I know... I've really gotta step up my game and get my winter rims straightened and balanced up and put on.
Don't want to run the General UHP's too much longer with this weather moving in


*though I did drive the Fiero with worn Dunlops on icey roads... nothing like driving sideways on the 401 :eeek:
- ended up driving 5kms on the side of the road with flashers running; at least I could keep up speed on the gravel better than I could on the actual road

Damn Toronto Drivers.

They don't know how to use 4-way stops, 3-way stops, how to read signs, or how to drive in 2inches of snow! I mean seriously!! 2inches is nothing.. maybe not even 2 inches.

I can't say that I haven't done stupid things in winter weather (rolled my car about 5 times across 6 lanes of traffic)... but if you've driven in this weather for a few years, you should come to expect it and not act like an idiot!

'tis that time of year again..

DriveClean test done, plate renewal for tomorrow.
Looking back at my results I posted previously (can't find 2010).. I think I fair pretty good since I'm at 252Kkms.
I wonder if this place is using a newer version of software, numbers look different. I'll have to dig out the 2010 numbers to properly compare.

2007
At 2797RPM
EMISSION ............... LIMIT..........READING
Hydrocarbon ppm........66 ........... 0
Carbon Monoxide%......0.37 ....... 0.00
Nitrogen Oxide ppm.....505 ......... 140

Curb Idle 712 RPM
EMISSION ............... LIMIT..........READING
Hydrocarbon ppm.......150 .......... 0.0
Carbon Monoxide%......0.70 ....... 0.00
Nitrogen Oxide ppm......NA .......... NA

2008
At 2792RPM
EMISSION ............... LIMIT..........READING
Hydrocarbon ppm........66 ........... 1
Carbon Monoxide%......0.37 ....... 0.00
Nitrogen Oxide ppm.....505 ......... 1

EMISSION ............... LIMIT..........READING
Hydrocarbon ppm.......150 .......... 1.0
Carbon Monoxide%......0.70 ....... 0.00

2012
At ~2500RPM
EMISSION ............... LIMIT..........READING
Hydrocarbon ppm........150 ........... 14
Carbon Monoxide%......0.70 ....... 0.01

Curb Idle ?? RPM

It's great that the GTA car tax is gone... but when did the MTO raise the plate renewal rates? Used to be $74, now it's $82. sheesh!

must have just gone up recently. I had mine renewed in June for $74.

I think its time the gov abolished this cash cow program like some other provinces have.

Yea, went in with my paper sating $74, but right above that "prices subject to change" BS.
The prices went up Sept 1. boo. I'd still rather pay the extra $8/yr than the $60/yr with that stupid GTA tax.
