Isnt there another poster or two from ottawa.
Richelieu lives in Gatineau no?
And maybe Spec (or maybe from MTL?)
We should really have a poly meeting for this area sometimes.

I use my bicycle for transportation. This is a very hostile city towards cars.

Combat Ingrid: Nice boots. Army surplus?

Verto: Are you having penis insecurity issues or are you just trolling? All those cars you're praising are ugly as bricks, horribly unsafe, unreliable (Ford), spend insane amounts of energy compared to what you'd need, and probably have hilariously miserable offroad capabilities as well altough they're styled as some sort of 4x4 vehicles... Frankly speaking, I can't imagine any other rational reason for buying them than trying to compensate small **** with a huge car.

I live in the high desert climate of the Sierra Nevadas where snow can pile up several feet.

exactly. We want them. I have no room to talk. You have seen the gas hog I drive.

But I have found out I don't use the 4 wheel drive all that often. My next vehicles won't be a 4 X 4, but I still need high clearance to get where I want to go.

I direct that mostly towards those who try to act superior because they bike/walk/whatever instead of driving a OMFG TEH GAS GUZZLING SUVs and rail about how people shouldn't get an SUV unless they need one, even to the point of requiring permits.

Yeah, I need SUVs too, we have deserts around here.





I enjoy driving, and I drive for a living, however, to university, I take the bus:



when I go to Tel Aviv, I almost always take the train: (this is the IC3 traincar/ DMU thingee)



Here's the station I usually depart from, in an old photo ( The station building is now adjacent to the track, and the bridge is replaced by a tunnel.




This is an inside view into one of the stations I usually get off in Tel Aviv: Tel Aviv - HaShalom Rd.



and here's a pretty pic of the outside of the same station, at night:



I'd like to thank the Tapuz public transport forum for these pics, btw!

I never said I needed one. And mine isn't an SUV, SUV's are for wimps . Mine is a pickup (with camper shell as you can see)

SUV's are bad because they give people a false sense of security. People drive them like cars, and they aren't supposed to be driven like cars. They are prone to rollover.

When an SUV is in an accident with a regular car, heaven help the poor soul in the regular car.

Preemptive strikes

To prevent SUVs from hitting you, it is a sound strategy to destroy them while not in motion; preferably while parked in a driveway; preferably, while being loaded with occupants.
