Summer toy ... Je m'ennuie du miens ! Le votre ?

technically speaking my S4 is still considered my summer toy in my specific situation seeing that im driving the A4 and the XC90 this winter.
but i will sell the A4 during the summer and will daily the S4 all year long from that point and leave the loud as fuck XC90 to my wife.

my other summer toy is my Kawasaki Z1000, with complete engine refresh just done during the holidays (all valves were re-adjusted, all gasket replaced, new kawasaki factory clutch & plates kit, new K&N filter with air box mod, EGR delete with block off plates, new spark plugs, new ignition coils, new thermostat, new voltage regulator, all fluids replaced, complete 4-ply silicone hoses kit, and a new Turcotte Performance dyno tune on the PowerCommander, he told me i should expect around 130 WHP on 91 Shell VPower with 0% ethanol).

Daily driving both my toys is fun to date but im getting the itch to buy a 3rd car to serve as real daily as winter progresses, altho wifey & i already tend to use her EX37 most the time to avoid shovelling
 
Je ne m'en ennuie pas vraiment, il consomme de l'huile comme un alcoolique et ca pu.

J'ai juste hâte d'avoir mon garage pour passer toute l'hiver à le démonter (encore) et remonter le moteur.... si je ne le vend pas avant.

Pour l'instant, mon wrx fait la job.

Le temps est tres long. Surtout que je passe l'hiver avec un bazou a 500$ qui va casser dans le chemin d'une semaine a l'autre

Mon 1985 dort dehors mais jai un rebuild a faire avant de le sortir cette annee. Quand le moteur chauffe j'entends les lifters. Fuck it all rebuild time.

Also working on my other project. 1976 f100 on a 2005 crown victoria chassis. I have been prepping this project since 2015 but just accumulating parts and finaly at a point where it can begin.

You are talking about something I created in high school I'm 36 and actually don't mind them just was never a fan of the fast and furious era. Was more into 80s g bodies at the time.

Currently hunting a 351w to swap out my current engine.
 
Cant wait to get mine out!! Full m4 exhaust+headers, power commander, full Ohlins front+back suspension!! She’s a beast that loves to scream!

Criss de beau road trip t'as fait la! C'était comment en bike? Je l'ai fais 2 fois en char jusqu'à Whistler mais ma Buell je sais pas si je pourrais l'endurer pendant 3 jours..


Je dois avouer que j'ai triché! J'ai fait expédier ma Moto avec une compagnie jusqu'à Calgary et j'ai pris l'avion pour la rejoindre. De Calgary j'ai commencé mon voyage. Donc, je n’ai pas perdu 6 jours (3 pour aller, 3 pour revenir) de mes vacances. En faisant cela, j'ai réussi de visite; Calgary, Banff, Lake Louise, Jasper, Kamloops, Whistler, Vancouver, Victoria (Nanaimo et Victoria), Vancouver encore, Hope BC (visiter les lieu towing de Highway to Hell sur Discovery), Osyosse, Vernon, Kelowna, Revelstoke, Banff, Drumheller.

14 jours, 4635 KM.

Ma Moto au Mile 0 du Trans Canada Highway juste à côté de la Statue de Terry Fox (j’avoue d'avoir été ému de voir la Statue)

Ya, I actually purposely drove through Mission on my way to Hope. Was looking for Mission Towing and I happened upon a Jamie Davis truck.



When in Hope, i tried to find Jamie's yard but could not find it! I asked around but the local's know better to tell visitors where it is.
I did make sure I drove the Highway 1 that they film on and all the tunnels.



I drove up to the Fraser Valley up near Hell's Gate and Boston Bar


From there I cut across and down towards Merritt where I jumped on Highway 5.... better known as the Coquihalla!!!
Had fun blasting down the Coq where the legal limit is 120 KM/H! Tacked on a extra 19KM/H and made my way down to Hope where I stayed the night.

Next morning on my way to Osoyoos, taking highway 3 a Jamie Davis flatbed passed me! I was like a kid in a candy-store! LOL Total groupie!
