Considering Trading the Tacoma for a Colorado or Canyon Diesel

zat. waz. ze. referenze.

 

Yup I got it. Love it

If I didn't know better, would think you are my richer, smarter, Canadian twin

 

No Pics but the Ridgeline is just a bit lower and easier to reach into if that is what your asking.

 

The GMC is a 2016, they probably want to unload it for tax purposes.

 

Yeah that is what I was asking.

Reason being, my friend bought her Canyon Diesel over. The bed was so high, couldn't reach over the side, which would make it unusable for me.

Of course, being a card carrying TW member, I can't just walk down to the Honda dealer to check out a ridgline (like a Trump voter), so I have to rely on others to get the info.

 

I don't know about richer and smarter, but I'll take Canadian and handomererer?

Unrelated PS. I requested time off for all of March yesterday, so assuming that goes through (it should), I'll be in Death Valley for a few weeks in mid March '17. Come out to play.

LWD and LWR were fantastic series. I think I've got to rewatch them.

 

Oh that should be fun!March 16-28 I will be in Tokyo, but otherwise be happy to meet.

Of course, we will have to leave my PRO at the pavement, and ride in your truck. I can't get my PRO dirty

All BC residents are richer than us. It is a fact.

 

Well, duh.

P = Pavement
R = Rides
O = Only

I should be off from the 4th, so I figure I'll be coming into DV around 8th-9th and staying for at least a week or so. I'll ping ya closer to the date!

 

Check it out when their closed. I do most of my car shopping on Sundays. Heck, some dealers around here leave the vehicles unlocked so you can check'um out. I'm sure there are cameras everywhere tho.

 

Excellent. Beer + Dinner on me. Though the cheap stuff. Since we don't have B.C. Chinese money

 

Sadly in LA, dealers are open at all times. I can't have my TW brothers see me at a Ridgeline . Are you kidding! They would ban me

Going to LA car show tomorrow, lets see if I can see it there. Trade PRO for Ridgeline?

 

My fondest memories of Cali all include $4 bottles of wine from gas stations. The cheap stuff is sometimes the most fun.

I clearly remember a 16 hour drive in an SUV with a few buddies - hauling 3 motorcycles on a trailer - to Thunderhill. We rolled into the Motel at around 10pm, had to be at the track at 7am, and promptly got cheap wine and cigars to celebrate... whatever day of the week that was. Good times.

 

@maypearl needs to speak up soon and address this diesel fiasco. God bless him

 

He's busy leasing cars for others

 

That Dealer is taking about $9k off their 2016 diesel models and about $4k off the gas versions. They have a HUGE inventory so probably want to offload them due to taxes.

 

If you want to ride a Panigale, I have one you can ride. I can get on my underpowered 748, and we can hit up Angeles crest

 

OMG don't tempt me. That's the path to the dark side, and I know it.

I quit riding (for the 3rd time?) about two years ago. Sold my K1300S as it was just collecting dust. No time to have fun anymore . Don't even have leathers (although I kept my lid) anymore, although Duc riders don't even use those!

 

We ride in shorts and wife beater

Proitalia is owned by long time client of mine. After riding my panigale, we can head over to ProItalia They ship all over the world, including Canada

 

Shoulda waited for the Colorado ZR2 diesel...I can't believe Chevy is going through with it. FRONT and REAR locking diffs....I'm considering sadly...
