Nice car, but is it prone to a specific item breaking? I noticed the wrench on the floor of the car haha.

Belongs to the heritage ale guy. I guess it is a heritage car :)

He took it apart completely and put it together again. Probably a work in progress kind of thing. Hence the spanner ..it might be a spanner rather than a wrench ... it's an English car.

I don't think you'd drive it much with the top on. That way you can stick out the top and fit better.
Currently on tap:
1) Festa Brown Ale
2) Festa Pale Ale
3) Best Case Northern Lights
4) Festa Continental Pilsner

In the bucket: Empty
In the carboy: Empty

Buy yourself a 24 and you'll be happy for a weekend. Teach yourself to homebrew and you'll be happy for a lifetime. :)

Picked up a new 2016 Acura RDX yesterday - replacing a Nissan Murano that was breaking down and costing too much to keep on the road...

Very nice Shane! Those infinitis are pretty slick.

Just bought this car from a buddy in Iceland, a 2003 Skoda Octavia Estate, love the 55+ MPG from the 1.9 TDI.

Traded my car in yesterday and picked up a Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. Been eyeing the Cherokee's for a while - finally decided to pull the trigger. If anyone is looking for a Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep or Ram product, let me know :)

I was looking at the trailhawk last summer...but they had no insensitives then...
Next year my wife wants to get rid of her car and take my suv. This or a 4 door wrangler is what I have in mind.
I've been with the same car dealer since 2000...he will take care of me I'm sure

Depends on highway vs city driving. My truck is rated between 13L and 19L per 100km. At the moment fuel is around $1/L.

Mine is rated at 9L/100KM highway, and 12L/100KM city, but in real life, it tends to do a bit better than the ratings.

Saw this chick magnet on my walk to work this morning. Doesn't look very fast though.

Looks like a great thing for a brewery, for cleaning out spent mash.

Just picked up this beast.

3 doors, 4 seats, but really only comfy for 2 people.

1.3 liter engine, 6-7 l/100 km

Full 4x4, high enough to ford rivers and drive on the mountain roads in the middle of the country, but still small enough to be very practical in the city :D
