    Canada Question for Canadians

    They're CRA now lol...yes federal, for all intents and purposes Ontario seems to only take a percentage of federal...the last advice I got from a CPA has them making up their own numbers and garnishing my gross pay...I filled out a form wrong and they are not changing it

    Low prices are killing this month!ppl bending over like crazy!

    Forgot to add: keep your old trucks till this settled out, just found out insurance is based on your purchase price here - saving 600 a month over what other drivers pay for 2 million liability...that and no monthly payments sure makes life easier...carriers that require 5 years or newer, don't...

    05 Sprinter - Cab Sleeper?

    Ever since my Ford E-350 Alumibunk I've gotten used to a 24" sleeper - the small size allowed me to sleep as cold as -44 F without supplemental heat or idling...and as hot as 103 F with a fantastic fan cut into the door blowing at my toes. Has anyone attempted putting a board over the seats and...
