    Noah’s Law Petition

    A couple of years ago in Hinton, Ab., a 24 year old woman and her 16 month old son were murdered by the scum bag sexual predator that lived in the same building that they had just moved into. Yesterday, I had heard on the radio an interview with a woman who was a friend of these victims, trying...

    Trip from Edmonton to Kelowna…the C8’s have taken over!

    Hi all. We just got back from a trip to the Vernon/ Kelowna area yesterday, and as we travelled, I was mentally counting the various generations of Corvettes we spotted. I must say, the C8’s were hands down the most Vettes we spotted. We saw more of them than all other generations combined! We...

    Looking for a Corvette tech in Edmonton area

    Hi all. My neighbor has a 2004 Vette, and has been having an issue with a parasitic battery drain. He is looking for a knowledgeable tech or shop in the Edmonton area that might be able to help. He feels that it is too old to take to a dealership, thinking that they would not be interested or...

    Battery draining on 2004 Vette

    Hi all. I have a neighbor who has a 2004 Vette, and seems to have a parasitic battery drain issue. He had it in to a mechanic shop (not a dealership), and they told him that the power lumbar pump is causing the issue. He asked me about it and if anyone I knew would be familiar with this issue...

    New Garage Flooring

    I would love a floor like that, but I have a large crack in the middle of my floor that I assume would not be great to install these over top of…or are they ok for that?

    Not too bright....

    I’m glad they caught this prick. Go to the track if you want excessive speed, and leave the streets for us who don’t want to be killed by some A-hole who thinks nothing bad could happen.

    So, do you know much about Electric Vehicles?

    Hi all. AMA here in Edmonton hosted an Electric Vehicle info/ demo this past Saturday, so we went to check it out. I have never really been interested in a fully electric vehicle up until now, but my perspective may be changing after this event. The range on some of these cars is really quite...

    Is this the old “upsell”?

    Hi all. I went for an oil change at my dealership last Friday. I feel they do a good job with it, but was told my clutch fluid is getting dark, and they recommend having it changed. I told them that I had it changed at their dealership 2 years ago, at their recommendation. They then told me that...

    A ghost captured on my home surveillance camera! No Lie!

    I had one a couple of years ago. Looked like ghostly image of a of a child skipping down our front walk at night. I showed my wife and she immediately saw that it was a shadow of a rabbit, but in my defense, the rabbit was hard to see. I actually showed some coworkers, and they were like WTF...

    Dealer Forcing to Purchase PPE/Ceramic/Wheel Protection Package

    This practice just sounds illegal. It’s similar to bait and switch, only there is no switch, just bait and upsell.

    Ethanol is now at every gas station

    As spring slowly approaches, I hope to have the car out of storage in 2 or 3 weeks, and am worrying about this ethanol issue. Will we need to add anything each time we fill up, or still just stick with the premium fuel and hope it doesn’t cause any issues? I imagine there are many high end cars...

    Sad day in Edmonton

    As I’m sure you all have heard, Edmonton had 2 young police officers killed in the line of duty early Thursday morning by a 16 year old kid. I just couldn’t believe it happened here, but sadly, it did. As tragic as losing an officer is, it used to be very rare to hear of this in Canada, but this...

    Is there hope?

    I certainly agree that you should get the color you are after, no compromises, but I will say that I would never intentionally shopped for a yellow C7 when I bought mine….until I saw her. I personally think the Red Mist looks awesome!

    First Corvette sighting of the year

    Well, you don’t often see a Vette on the roads in January in Edmonton, but I spotted one today. It was a rapid blue C8 in the downtown area. He even had the roof panel off, or top down (not sure if it was the HTC). I don’t think I have ever seen a Vette of any era on the roads here in January.
