Canada BS thread

If that was on a dealer lot they probably would put a $70k sticker on it.

 

That's the argument I'm having internally.

It's either I do more to it, which ultimately means I'll end up keeping the truck forever, or sell now and get something new.

 

Your truck sounds killer, keep that thing. If its excitement you are after, buy a dirt bike. Vehicles, even fast ones are quite meh as far as entertainment goes.

 

Yes...

At that price I could remove the SC; put it on my Pro; and then still flip yours for a profit

 

Wait, how much are folks really willing to pay for this in the States?

 

We need more details; original trim level, mileage, etc....

 

I don't think we have any members from the Northwest Territories but if we do and there's something we can do to help let us know.

 

It's an original TRD Pro, has 64k km on it, or 40k miles, you can find my build thread for everything has been done so far, which I think can be bit long to list.

Oh how I wish, our trailer is a write off for this year, just hope can get this headache resolve within this year.

I saw some clips of folks going down hwy 3, all the best to these folks, can't imagine how scary it must be.

 

Exploring some MB lakes while camping.

 

Nice wheels

 

Not sure who's the one calculating the accessory costs, but TRD lift kit for 3rd gen Tundra is $9,211.61, installed...........

 

Yikes! My entire 2019 Truck new (non TRD) was only $38k

 

does it smell like a new boat? Something about the smell of new fiberglass…

 

Lol. Guess I won't be doing that lift then.

 

I began looking at Big Foot and I like what I see, how's the buying process? we want to camp earlier and later in the season, and no slide outs start to sound mighty promising.

FYI, my fox 2.5 dsc with icon billet uca costs less than that by a couple of grand, I can't see why anyone would want that.

 

We custom ordered our 2023 Bigfoot 25B25FB travel trailer from Vernon Recreational Products (VRP) in Vernon, BC. They’re 20 minutes from the Bigfoot factory in Armstrong, BC. We had an excellent experience from ordering our trailer to picking it up and having some after sales service work done. If you’re at all interested in a Bigfoot, I recommend you give Jeff Rosman at VRP a call.

We picked up our trailer at VRP on July 04, 2023, and we pulled it 3000 km during our inaugural road/camping trip. The Tundra and the Bigfoot both performed very well.

 

First time buying Canada West work boots and I am now a loyal customer.
Light, grippy and made in Manitoba.
They have taken about a week to break in and they are getting better every day.

 

Can you order direct from factory? that sounds like lot of fun, pick up from BC and trek it home, my only concern is if our 16yo fur child can cope with the drive.

That's a sweet looking set up, what's the estimate tongue weight?

 

It was 625 lbs dry at the time of pickup and I haven’t weighed it since we’ve packed the trailer. I have weighed the loaded truck and trailer at a CAT scale and my axle weights and gross weights were all within limits for the truck and trailer.

 

Has anyone seen the "cheap" used car market lately?

I just started looking at them for my daughter, holy crap is it sad, $5000 for cars that I probably would've send to the junkyard just 2-3 years ago, back in 2015 I bought a 2008 Camry SE V6 for $7500 with 110k, just saw a 2008 Camry 4cyl asking $8000 with 400k, wth?

 

Yup, last fall was terrible when I was also looking for my daughter. Couldn’t justify the $$ for the age/ quality of what I was seeing. Sinned my soul & bought her a new Hyundai instead.

 

When I “ordered” my tundra there was a 2019 Tacoma with 80k that was more money than a brand new one. Insane.
Even the trade value on my frontier was half of what I paid for the truck, 11 years ago.

 

Yeah, I was looking used trucks for a ‘temp’ veh to replace my aged Ridgeline. Was looking at prices too close to new for 5 yr old truck. So I bought new - no regrets so far, other than not having the patience to wait for a 6.5 bed.

 

Yeah, I follow it a bit as both our teenage boys are looking on Kijiji Auto all the time.

The prices on dependable used cars is crazy.

 

What did you get? being browsing new cars too, ironically mainstream brands all have insane rates, 8.99 for a Corolla is insane, while Audi has 2.49.

Noticed manual cars are way cheaper, I bought a 2010 Civic for the youngest when pandemic just starting, it was also when he started to drive, thankfully paid $2500 and has been amazing so far but he has always wanted to drive a stick, noticed same gen Civic with manual hovers around $5k, while an automatic is almost $8-10k.

 

I got her a Hyundai Venue, basic model (automatic) I was fortunate I had $$ for something else I reallocated so no financing needed. The ‘good thing’ is she is set for many yrs & momma bear doesn’t worry about the car her precious baby is driving ​

 

We also have this thread. Not sure if there's anyone watching it who's not watching this one and the Kijiji finds.

I wish you were local. I'd come take a look.

We are in the market for a 2 or 3 person, hard sided, toilet, type trailer.

 

Your next door

 

I'm not familiar with all the ON towns and cities any more, so checked.

It's an 18hr drive. If I knew it was a sure thing, maybe, but not to go look.
