    Wonder how well they handled driving through 12"-18" of water on the highway?

    Did you see they are rationing now. Canada is gonna be in bad way. Most Canadian imports go through that region.

    Yep. Vancouver area is limited to 30L gas per day (but its the honour system lol). Know many people that live in the interior and there's shortages of some things but its not like store shelves are bare (yet). I don't know if the Transmountain pipeline is flowing yet but BC gets a lot of its fuel from that line apparently.

    I think that pipe parallels the highway in a lot of spots. Probably need to make sure it isn't compromised.

    I was referring to her reference of Canadian domestic vehicles.

    Is it supposed to impress me, that in Europe, tesla sells lots of cars.
    How many pickups, SUV's, semis, motorcycles, and more do they sell. 0.
    And how about in Canada, what do they sell here?

    Maybe 1 vehicle for every 100,000 F series pickups Ford sells.
    Can't swing a dead cat here without hitting an F series. In my garage is three F series pickups, two Indian, and two Husqvarna motorcycles, a Husqvarna chainsaw, three Arctic Cat snowmobiles, two Yamaha ATV'S, two Honda Generators, a Honda Snowblower, and Honda mower. Not a single item says Tesla on it, and know a lot of people, not any of them own a Tesla. I've never seen a Tesla in this city, not once, ever.
    I can drive 70 hours a week, and see exactly 0 Tesla's in those 70 hours, but yowza do i see a lot of F series, Rams, Sierras, Hondas, and more.
    If I ever see a Tesla here, I'll snap a pic of it, and come back to this thread, and post the pic.
    Don't hold your breath.

    Oh by the way I do occasionally see a Volt, Honda Insight, many Priuses, even a Nissan Leaf.
