Tonight, we'll get down to the "discussion". I think Jordan and I'll be there. Maybe even Dawn and Kalan.

Morning boys.
Is that an ecoboost Escape Morris? The fuel economy of anything more than a Honda Cervix won't be incredible. I know a few people with new escapes and their biggest disappointment is the mpg. Our Explorer is getting better as the miles accumulate. Yesterday evening we got 27 mpg returning from Regina. Typically its 23mpg combined driving. Picked up a ball joint tool kit, $130 should save me $500+ in labor!! I wish our dollar was closer to par with the US right now. New fuel tank from the US is $80, here is $208. It winds up being very close after exchange, shipping, and duty charges
So many things are stupidly cheap for the same item across the border...but at least we have free health care...
Happy Friday everyone, hope its a great day for all!!

Happy Friday mornin'all. If the truck computer is accurate. I got just over 24 mpg on the 150 last weekend on the highway. 115km, with max A/C on. I'm happy with that. John looks like Jordan, Kalan and I will make the trip to Kenora. Dawn is on call for work. The BBQ is next Sunday. It was actually a painless discussion last night. Sherm; who are you getting the tank from? $208.00 doesn't sound that bad. Have a great day guy's.

Good evening everybody. 
Our`s is an Ecoboost Escape Sherm. I don`t expect great economy but overall I think we`ll be happy with it. Us buying it means that the daughter in law got her new black F150 Super Crew this afternoon.
It`s plenty roomy enough for the two of us and groceries too.
Rather than buy a ball joint tool kit I borrowed one from our local Canadian Tire store. Is there a CT store in Yorkton?
That tilt hood looks interesting John.
Have a great weekend everyone and be safe, the weather looks to be great.
