    Pneus de 10 ans

    J'ai lu l'article au complet avant de répondre et de mettre le lien. Comme je le vois, le premier paragraphe et écrit par les ingénieurs, le deuxième, que tu fais référence à, est écrit par les avocats et/ou actionnaires. Les deux paragraphes sont contradictoires si tu les prends en absolute...

    Pneus de 10 ans

    Appeal to authority is a logical fallacy. However if you want to play that game, let's see what one of the largest tire manufacturers has to say about it. https://www.continental-tires.com/products/b2c/tire-knowledge/replacing-tires/ Long story short, the full text is a mix of legal-ese cover...

    Pneus de 10 ans

    I don't argue with you or anyone for that matter based on who they are but what they say/post. Furthermore I typically don't argue to change their mind specifically but to provide reasonable context for others reading through the thread. In this case you are correct that as a rule of thumb 6-7...

    OFFICIAL Quebec-Montreal dash camera thread ! * Insert video *

    99.9% d'accord, il a bien raison sauf leur retour au routes. Le STM manque des passagers alors c'est un "match made in heaven".

    Pneus de 10 ans

    You say mental gymnastics, in this particular case I say nuance. The manufacturers suggest to change it every X years, which I think the current going average is 6 seasons because they know people are stupid. I mean for God sakes we need to label coffee as hot you think they're going to leave it...

    Any full time traders on MR?

    Welcome to the party and congrats on the accidental gold windfall. If you want to gamble, silver >> gold. If silver keeps this up I'll be retired before 40. I told everyone on hear way back gold and silver and as usual, I was way ahead of the curve, got laughed at, and now, it speaks for...

    The Official Cellphone Thread

    Thanks. In the end I'm going to piggyback off my wife's Roger's EPP. $40/month, Canada/US 100Gb with a $0/m Pixel 10 ($300 buyout). Could maybe eek out something slightly better but I'm thinking of getting that, selling the Pixel for $700 and the $400/24 would make it equivalent to $30/month...

    The Official Cellphone Thread

    Called today, the plan is a win back, i.e. you have to have had been with Telus at one point but no longer. It does exist but I'm not able to benefit from it.

    The Official Cellphone Thread

    Is this only available by speaking with a rep or can I walk into a Telus location and get this because this is a lava hot deal IMHO.

    Honda Prelude (concept)

    I am aware. Ultimately it's a product for die-hard Honda fans, not the mass market. That partially answers your second point, people buying this want the H badge, there's worth to that for some, more than cross shopping similar cars with better value. Question is, are there enough fans to make...

    Honda Prelude (concept)

    Prelude has the Type R suspension and brakes. If you are getting the car to enjoy driving on the backroads, they won't drive the same at all but day to day use, the Civic Hybrid Touring is a no brainer, with the Sport Hybrid an even better value for the money.

    Honda Prelude (concept)

    But they are not targeting that audience. As far as I'm concerned why eat into the space that the Type R/Type S commands. Those are for the enthusiasts and manual die hards. Heck, even the Si fits the bill when others like VW are scrapping everything manual. People that love the CTR/ITS...

    Honda Prelude (concept)

    What I don't understand is how the Civic Hybrid is faster to 100kph than the Prelude. The Civic Hybrid will do mid-sixes in most situations and Car and Driver has the heavier Touring version at 6.2s 0-60mph. The initial reports out of Japan with a 9 second 0-100kph for the Prelude seem off...

    Suivre de trop près un autre véhicule dans la mire des policiers de la SQ

    I think this is the biggest hurdle. There should be a special tier license (very hard to get) but basically if you are a really good driver you get extra privileges.

    Le mal du 21e siècle: le conspirationniste

    Don't know if this is true or not but if so, if a Kardashian can point out the basic inconsistencies of the moon landing that anyone free of social ridicule should be able to also see, it means anyone still beLIEving tHE tRuTh must be epically stupid or extremely prone to lemming behavior.

    Suivre de trop près un autre véhicule dans la mire des policiers de la SQ

    I understand that they have to come up with a general rule of thumb and it's really hard to do but a "safe" following distance is hyper specific to a situation and we're all out of societal common sense in 2025. Although the biggest fail on their part is the stupidity that is following based...

    Meilleur pneus d’hiver

    This. Just bought them for the wife's car. Still running the X-Ice 3's on my car since they have one more season on them. Completely agree when people say the XI3 are really shitty on snow, but the reviews seem to indicate that Michelin correct this to a certain point on the Snow version...

    Dévoilement Civic Type R 2023 ce soir 22h00

    It is limited but maybe not to the same degree and that's why I was curious. Plus people are not as excited about the ITS as the CTR so they're not scooped up as fast, nor do they have a lightly used premium. Des Source also had a grey one and they were asking $67k i think with 8,000kms...

    Any full time traders on MR?

    Out of curiosity did you end up pulling the trigger. You would have been up about 18% on CEF.TO, which for gold and silver is stupid returns if things were normal, but we're far from normal times. Gold is hitting all time highs today and silver is just shy of it's all time high. In my...

    Dévoilement Civic Type R 2023 ce soir 22h00

    That little? Out of curiosity where's that number from? I know the numbers on the ITS have been impossible to find and the closest I've found are 2 comments. One said the Type-S numbers will mirror the Type-R in North America, with another saying about 3000/year in the US and a tenth of that per...
