Roadtrip anyone?
« on: April 27, 2012, 10:22:44 pm »
I have all of July off...and I'd love to take my Birdie back to the Coquihalla.

Anyone interested in doing a trip to the Okanagan or Alberta border? I don't care how far we go or where we go...let's just get on them hyways and drive foo. :P

It would be fun. Only thing is I need to be here the weekend of the 15th of July for my little cousin's wedding...any other weekend in July will do tho.

Let me know

Usually the last Sunday in July so it would be roughly July 29th this year.

i would take my colt to cali.  Its only like 5500 km;s there and back...  if not less depending on how far south you travel.  My colt seems to have no issues going 5000 km oil changes  throughout the past few years and i have done minimal repairs to it, nothing that kept it from going  A-B everyday... and the old girl has 405 000 km's on her now too, original engine/tranny :O


It seems to just keep going, and going, and going and going

but it will have to come off the road sooner then later for a clutch job.... shes starting to get a bit slippy if i push her too hard.
