About time! Only 245km away? Do you get the GM employee discount price up there. Saw it advertised several times lately. Good luck with the 'deal', and make sure you look up all the incentives available before you go. At least you'll have a good shake-down cruise on the way back. Congrats!

St. Johns is in Newfoundland, I live in Labrador, and there is no direct road, there is a road and 2 boats and 3 days to get there.Yeah, Labcity it is, I just finished the deal and there is no employee discount here in canada, I got 5 year 0% finance with $500 cash back, then the dealer gave me another $600 off, a full tank of gas and mud flaps. I then oped for the 7 year total plus warranty with no deductible out the door, no down payment for less then $500.00 a month so Im happy with that, she's a fully loaded Base Model with 1SC only it has the manual shift, list price $24349I have arranged a ride over Friday dinnertime so I will be back with pictures on Saturday...

Hey guys, I finally got the car washed, then it snowed, but once it melted and dried off I took some more pics. I also have the windows tinted now with 35% tint, (I hate tinting windows arg......) and a new shortie radio antennae, more mods soon to follow

Yeah, i find tinted windows makes any vehicle look better, and makes it much cooler, so i done my own, it turned out pretty good, not perfect but im happy with it. I didn't want too dark a tint either, i like the 35% on this car

Nice looking car,...but I like your house in the background. You must have a nice view from the mountain. Do you have solar collectors on the back?

Thanks, behind it is not mountains, it's actually 1/2 way down a hill with the view of the hill on the other side, there is a river way down below, it's an awesome view from behind down through the river gorge.

Great looking car. Can't go wrong with dark tint and black exterior... always looks good. You guys got snow already? At least the grass is still green.Where did you get your stubby antenna?

I bought the stubby on ebay, and we had snow every day on the last 6 days, but it never stayed long each day, it's hovering right around the freezing mark, leaves are all falling off the trees here now and the grass is starting to turn, Im normally on snowmobile in October and that's not far away
