    Worst mistake I made while towing this summer

    For sure. I had a bathroom weigh scale and weighed the tongue after every time we moved anything in the trailer. 170 pounds was too light for emergency manouvers, 200 pounds was good, 240 was a little more than i wanted on the car- front end was more stable with under 240. You dont have to move...

    Worst mistake I made while towing this summer

    Thats a long story :) short version is we have towing weight regulations for each province that are a little confusing. They dont mention weight ratings of the vehicle itself for pleasure use. The authorities are very picky with anything commercial or any pickups for pleasure use. But i think...

    Worst mistake I made while towing this summer

    I towed a trailer all across Canada and back last summer, did 30k and did it all pretty safely in my opinion considering I did all the driving and the size/weight of the trailer compared to the car. This was by far the most dangerous thing i did. It was an incredibly beautiful drive, there was...

    Sg9663dc footage of crazy hills, cabot trail nova scotia

    Yup, that trip was hard on it. I had synthetic oil and 25% more oil capacity than stock but didnt need a cooler. This engine is fairly unusual in that the oil doesnt get hotter than the coolant, they transfer heat fairly well somehow internally. Ive never driven anything else that was like that...

    Sg9663dc footage of crazy hills, cabot trail nova scotia

    This is a video compilationof the toughest spots on the most challenging drive of our summer trip! The hills were very nearly too much for my festiva pulling the almost 2000 pound trailer. The cabot trail in nova scotia is 300km long. The first part of this video is the first big hill, then next...

    I never even thought of that! I will look at the photo first next time and save myself some time searching for why the recording is saved. The street gaurdian is much better than my other 2 dashcamers at not saving potholes and rumble strips! Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    "Real World" Questions on the DC

    No, this is still the photo from when i first installed it, i didnt take a new one. Its going into a different car in a month and getting installed neatly. Its been dark whenever i was driving until the time change 3 weeks ago or so so the wires werent visible until then. I only watched 3...

    "Real World" Questions on the DC

    Camera is behind the rearview mirror and gps is in far right corner. Middle camera is gone. And that sucks about the editing. Whats the video editor that always gets mentioned here? Does it crop? Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    "Real World" Questions on the DC

    Noticed its taking 2-5 minutes at up to 60kmh speeds before my gps starts registering my speed. What is normal? Also what was the name of the video editor where you can remove the gps speed and put the rear video into the front one? Thanks. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    Thats interesting. Not sure why you drive both faster and slower than us, lol. Here its: School/playground 30 Town side streets 50 Main streets 50/60/70 Gravel roads 80 but everyone does 100-120, they arent really enforced. Basically every paved highway 100 A couple divided freeways are 110, not...

    A fun snowy drive!

    Their winter tires worn just over half way down. Should be replaced for conditions like these but this car still has more traction than half the vehicles on the road. A little poor by my standard but its been a winter without much snow. They will be replaced or sold to someone else before next...
