And .... 2 weeks later, I finally got around to putting the summer tires back on!
We had freak snow flurries a week ago, but nothing accumulated...
Not counting the fake snowbanks installed by the movie crews downtown!
The holy grail! Base Canadian Mirage with no options: no AC, manual locks (no remote), wind-up rear windows, manual HVAC settings, no cruise, etc. Yet another cheap, used scratch 'n' dent special with high kms for its age (174k).
Colour: Frigidaire White. A littlle banged up, with rust creeping around the edges.
Front carpet: 50% sodium chloride
Aftermarket bluetooth thingy!
Stiff clutch pedal.
Yes. Possible fubar rear axle.
Stock Enasaves in decent shape. Two are much newer, so I will have to investigate rear axle alignment.

They were doing one of those rom-com feel good Christmas type things for Netflix. Had the downtown cordoned off for a couple of weeks. I recognized some of the actors from Brooklyn 99, and supposedly Chevy Chase showed up for a cameo.

This month marks the 3rd anniversary of ownership of Mirage #3!
This is the longest I've gone in my adult life without having bought or sold another car.
Life has gotten busier in the past 3 years, and I've pretty much abandoned the habit of perusing the local ads for cheap, efficient cars. Are my flipski days behind me?? Is this my forever car?

MPG over the past 3 years: 62 MPG US = 3.8 L/100 km.
Horrible! Needs a big aerodynamic tail on the back.
