"This is That"

Well, this isn't Excursion related news but for those times you're sitting in some repair or tire shop's waiting room looking at crappy 10-year old magazines, here's some fun vehicle related podcasts to pass the time. It's from Canada's CBC radio: :-)


"Earlier this week the Governor General announced that the pick-up truck is officially Canada's National Vehicle. Peter Oldring speaks with the man who spearheaded this campaign."

About the 15 minute mark:
S3 E3: Saskatchewan rename, Land cruise, National truck, Wood Choppers - This is That - CBC Player


"Hear the story of two courageous Canadians who fearlessly stare down the heart of a blizzard." (skip to 12 min 30 sec.)
