  1. Yeah, it's pretty nasty Roy but I'm sure they'll do what's right...hopefully
  2. If anyones interested, here's a picture of the rear fender just behind the wheel. That black crud is also all over all 4 wheels and the rear fender on the other side. I can't see how this could possibly be considered normal on a brand new vehicle only a few days old.
  3. Thanks Bernie, I appreciate you checking into the bulletins on this. I called a couple different Honda dealers yesterday and got complete opposite answers from them. One said it sounded about normal and the other said it sounded very excessive As I said above, my daughter works for the dealership where the car was purchased, so I'm sure they'll look after it for her but I'm gonna suggest an upgrade on the pads.
  4. I know what your saying Art, but this to me seems really excessive and I've never seen brake dust on the rear fenders, specially on a brand new car only a couple days old. It's going back to the dealer on Tuesday but it won't be a problem as she also works there.
  5. She already does Wayne, and old dad washes it every week
  6. Hope it doesn't come to replacing the pads on a brand new car Randy, but she's gonna take it back to the dealership on Tuesday and see what's up. Thanks for that link Roy, it was a good read and it sure seems like alot of vehicles have the problem. Hopeully the dealer will do something.
  7. My daughter just purchased a brand new Honda Civic this week and now, with only a couple hundred kilometers on it, the 4 wheels are covered in heavy brake dust and it's even visible on the rear fenders. I ran my fingers thru it last night and it came up black, like you'd find in an exhaust pipe from a car in desperate need of a tune up. Dealership says that's normal for the 1st few thousand kilometers but doesn't sound right to me. Hondas are great cars and she's had a couple of them but this heavy brake dust is something I've never come across on a new car before. I buy a new truck every couple years and have never seen that before, but I'm kinda fanatical and wash my truck every few days. Anyone know for sure what's up ??
  8. Feeney Roofing from Ennismore is excellent with a reputation to match 705-743-7663
  9. Took me 2 sittings & several coffee's to get thru that epic fish'n tale Drew, but it sure was worth it. Some really outstanding fish there !!
  10. We used to do alot of snowmobiling back in the 80's/early 90's and I bought a 4.0 Cherokee to haul the trailer into the backwoods and it was excellent in the snow. I drove it for about 5 years and never had a single issue with it. My buds got a Grand Cherokee with around 400K on it and it still works well.
  11. If anyone's worried about the swivel going through the guide, a simple plastic bead on the line above the swivel will prevent any damage and not affect the action.
  12. At least we no longer have to replace the license plates like we used to. It'd be blue plates with white lettering one year, then we'd switch to white plates with blue letters the next. Talk about a waste of resourses.
  13. But you haven't met my pet Lakair swan yet Joey
  14. Why not forget about those silly bass, get a bigger fish'n pole and go chase that musky
  15. I was at a boatramp yesterday and a fella launched a big bassboat with a 250HP motor and tandem trailer with a Liberty and must admit I was surprised to see such a small vehicle pulling that big heavy combo. No idea how well it would stop with that boat pushing him from behind though.
  16. Good to hear the vacation went so well Matt, looks like you guys had a blast up there. Crazy story about the musky & bass LOL Great fishing with you a couple weeks back as usual and be sure to let me know about August.
  17. Gorgeous fish !!

    I think good luck runs in my family. 18 months ago my daughter won an all expense paid vacation for 2 to Freeport, Bahamas, and they no longer got home from there and she won another all in trip for 2 to Los Angeles.

    That's how much Lotto 649 gave me last night. Retirement just keeps getting better every day
