Indeed, I am off for a weekend of fun with one of my daughters, so no posts likely and this one is going to be a short one.
I am saving some money, and giving myself a bit of peace of mind by renting a car to go the long distance we are planning, but I remembered that whenever my parents rented a car on vacation they typically rented a car they were thinking of buying, so the trip became an extended test drive. Following in this tradition, I am renting a Yaris, from Toyota to see whether the Big Cajun body can stand driving in it a long distance, and whether it is as miserly on gasoline as it claims. The other nice part is that I used my Aeroplan points, so the rental is free as well. A useful tip for those thinking of purchasing a car.
Gasoline remains at ludicrous levels here in Ottawa over $1.05 a liter, and now there is not even the courtesy of an excuse, we are now being told, “That is the way it is”, lovely! I think we are being gouged (again), I am curious to see the prices in Southern Ontario.
Hey Cajun,
Just looking for your post for the Tour Event.
Let me know when you’ve got something..
Thanks,,

You could try living in the lower mainland of British Columbia. Around here the gas price is just above $1.20 per litre!
