    Lots of guys go with the Atlas mainly because of price and they think they’re just a rebadged bendpak. With the Dorito price increase over the last 2 years I don’t know which one I’d get? Babco(Canadian bendpak dealer) removed the prices from their website a year or so ago…there wasn’t. Big price difference between the 2 when I was shopping but I believe the price of the bendpak went up by $1000cad over the last 2 years, maybe more.

    I don't like little games like that. So nobody can really say what the "proper" selling price of these things should be. I look at it and think, "hmm, perhaps $1000 in decent steel, $1000 for the electro/hydraulic parts, maybe $500 for controls, fittings, misc for an all in price of $2500?" Plus my time but there's only a day of welding and fabrication.

    I write this as I gobble down No Name Yellow bag corn chips from Superstore/No Frills. I prefer them to Frito Lay.

    This is what I love about Hatchbacks even though I am more of a Sedan fan. But see you can't easily load up a Sedan like the Mirage Hatch.

    In some ways I think I should went with a hatchback as I think it may suite my hobbies. I plan to get big ass Guitar amplifiers to play at gigs.

    I definitely appreciate the trunk space of this inexpensive car for almost anything. Something that the hatchback variant couldn’t do for me and my family!

    Went to a plant sale with my mom on the weekend. We went a bit wild. Thankfully Singer was able to handle it all! I felt like I was driving a greenhouse around. Name:  plant sale haul.jpg

    You can't fit a Marshall 1/2 stack in, sorry. You can fit the 100 w solid state head and matching 4x10 cab, the model # escapes me now. It's, IMO the best sounding solid state head you can buy. No longer made but has the honest Marshall growl and punch. When I A/B switch my Solid state head with my JCM800 tube head I can tell the difference. But most can't. Consider finding the 100w 1/2 stack. Mine was only $400 or so, add $250 for the upper cabinet.
