  2. Want to buy as a gift for my pops for xmas. Found a few low prices online. I know of radioworld in toronto they are selling it for $330 plus tx.

     

    Anyone know where to get a good deal on this unit. Also perhaps black friday in the states would offer up a good deal online? Where to shop?

     

    thanks

     

    as WJ said, radioworld has THE lowest price for this great unit. Hurry though, they ran out of stock last year.

  3. Steel28...I wanted the same thing and was astonished that they didn't have the waterproof jacket to go with the bib-pants.

     

    I picked up my 1-piece Integrity HX at BassPro...so they do carry them there and it might be a good idea to try it on, or at least check out how nice the air-soft foam is compared to other brands, it's a noticeable difference.

     

    Happy shopping!

    I had marcum lx5, vex fl-18 and Lowrance x67c is the winner for me. Love the graph mode.

  5. Absolutely correct. Going the Cornwall route is out of the way. You have to go quite a ways north, then back south as you head west to Toronto. I currently live in Vermont, but travel to London Ontario to see my family all the time. My wife's family lives in Boston. From Boston to Toronto, the best way is to take I-90 west out of Boston straight across Massachusetts, into New York, and all the way across NY State to the end of the toll boths. It'll cost you about $20 in tolls, but it's the most direct, and fastest route. You should hit Toronto in under 10 hours.

     

    A couple tips I've learned from doing this drive to London, Ontario 3 to 4 times a year for the last 12 years:

     


       
    • After you pass through the toll gates on I-90 just outside Buffalo, immediately get into the right lane and exit right a few hundred yards past the toll booth onto I-290 WEST toward Niagara Falls.
    • Stay on I-290 until you hit Grand Island. You'll go over a bridge ($1.00 toll) and now you're on I-190 WEST.
    • You'll traverse the island in about 10-15 minutes, and climb another big bridge on I-190. At the bottom of that bridge, take the first exit to the right and curl around onto the Robert Moses Parkway.
    • Follow the RMP along the Niagara River to downtown Niagara Falls, NY.
    • Cross at the Rainbow Bridge into downtown Niagara Falls, Ontario.
    • After you go through the Canada Customs booths, stay straight on Highway 420 to the QEW
    • Follow the QEW to Toronto.

     

    I used to take the I-190 to the Queenston-Lewiston Bridge and cross over there, meeting up with the 405 to the QEW. DON'T TAKE THAT ROUTE, unless you love being stuck in traffic, potentially for several hours depending on the time of day you're crossing. All the commercial truck traffic goes that way, since they are not allowed downtown Niagara Falls.

     

    When crossing over the Rainbow Bridge from downtown Niagara Falls, NY to Niagara Falls, Ontario, you're literally on regular city streets. They have to keep the traffic flowing or it snarls the downtown areas. It moves very quickly, and you'll save a ton of time.

     

    wow! great info, thanks!!

  6. I've made the trip from Michigan to New Hampshire through Toronto many times. My suggestion would be Toronto to Cornwall on 401. South at Cornwall into the USA. Across the north end of New York State to Rouses Point, NY then into Vermont to I89 to I93 then south to Boston. There is a BPS in Foxborough in the Gillette Stadium complex. Just a short drive from down town Boston.

     

     

     

    might take that route! thank you.
