    It’s only 90 out, she’s never dug holes in 3 years. Does this mean it’s going to hit 100 soon?

    Going back to the original post, whatever you buy, think of this. Not sure year of your Prious C, 45 mpg average? Depending on what you purchase, if not comparable mileage, your fuel costs will increase. Doesn’t seem much, but if a mid sized suv, costs would double. As long as it fits your...

    Unfortunately, most have no, need, for a full size truck. More a status symbol. No longer viewed as needing it for work, farm, etc.

    Similar to Fords Maverick. I looked at them, discounted them, but they’re popular with younger people. That’s the new market

    Wife had a 2018 Rav4 hybrid. Solid vehicle. Except hit a shallow pot hole on a dirt road, unknowingly pulling the front of a plastic skid plate down. Last time we drove it except on paved road, it cost around 1250 to fix replace because sensors were attached to it.

    Toyota owns a major share now in Subaru, not sure exactly how much. Subaru hybrid i was told is similar, but not the same as Toyota, a cross sharing of engineering, parts happening.

    I don’t have rush hour traffic to contend with, do gauge my visits in town consistently getting 30. On the highway, backroads, around 60 I’ve gotten 36. Quite happy compared to a truck getting max 16 same manner.

    I went through similar, but having always owned pickups. I ended up with a Forester, my first Subaru, after my wife bought the Outback I initially looked at. The jump in mileage of almost 2 1/2 times the truck, offsets somewhat the cost. Like mentioned, read various reports of all models for the...

    Advice for Fernie BC area "classified waters"

    CDA river will be to low to float. St Joe would be ok still, though it will be dropping still, warming where typical floats are. I’ve never floated Clearwater.

    Outcast boats

    I had that problem several years ago. Go to the website of a dealer, typically in stock. I bought my Clearwater raft from Gorge Flyshop, same price as on Outcast website

    Personal Pontoon/Raft on Car Top?

    Cataraft though?

    Personal Pontoon/Raft on Car Top?

    You should check the manufacturer weight capacity. A typical fiberglass one can hold over 100 pounds. I’ve seen several with bicycle mounts in them. One reason I bought the Clearwater raft is it only weighs 35 pounds without the bags/gear. My rollup tonneau cover had a capacity of I think 40...

    Personal Pontoon/Raft on Car Top?

    No, it’s not a problem of to few boats, that’s like saying I need more than 3 fly rods. I have all the gear you talk of, but a pontoon is different from a floored raft on a rooftop. I prefer the raft to the pontoon or pram I had before.
