    Gas: ethanol

    For years there's been crowing about ethanol not increasing the cost of gasoline, and in fact some eco-types used to claim that because blending ethanol reduced the amount of oil needed to produce fuel it worked out to be far less expensive than "pure" fuel made from oil. The link here sort of...

    Gas: ethanol

    Resurrecting an old thread about Ethanol/Gasoline blends. It seems that since the first post in this thread in October 2019 where 10% Ethanol was in regular fuel only with none in premium. Then a couple of years ago 10% was also mandated Canada-wide for premium. The rules are changing yet...

    Ya beat me to that one.....I figure they're gonna make you subscribe to the engine (or battery pack/drive motors or ???) after a year or two or upon warranty expiry in the near future.

    Looks like my old '74 Monte Carlo. Build quality overall was MEH, but it was damn comfortable and like most cars of the day the body was huge! And, I haven't seen window winder crank handles in ages. LLC

    Your chance to "stock up" on new Corvettes

    Happened to be browsing through the weekly Costco email I get every Monday, and I spotted the opportunity to buy one (or multiple, no restrictions that I could see) brand new Corvette(s) with a costco member discount! $1000.00 off for regular members, $1,200.00 off for the Executive member...

    A Sucker Punch From Your Neighbour/Friend? (US/Canada Trade War)

    Rruff, I'm gonna respectfully disagree with you on this... Don't get me wrong, the SOB is a perfect example of a waste of skin. However, thinking of the aftermath, I shudder, the sheep who follow him plus I'd suspect a significant number of fence sitters would most likely rally behind the...

    Anyone in Southern Ontario installed an AWE "Touring edition" exhaust system?

    Seriously considering installing an AWE exhaust system, Touring Edition. I live in a typical suburban neighbourhood, cookie-cutter houses, fairly densely packed in close proximity to one another, so I don't want to end up being That Guy when I start my C7 up from cold engine. All I can find on...

    C7 dead battery popped trunk but lid won't open? Can you help??

    Al, I had something similar happen (the battery neg terminal was a touch loose on the post, it turned out, instead of a dead battery, just not enough of a connection to power-release the lid). I used the key from the FOB, and as you noted the hatch/trunk lid only opened part way, and was still...
