Do these show up as transferable to a Canadian carmax?
People who ride bikes a lot around here have either a VW Caddy, Ford Transit or a VW T5
We have a Caddy like this but much more weathered. It’s interior is covered in dirt with handlebar marks completely covering the headliner. We like it.

I'm going to put money on Carmax not importing/exporting "regular" vehicles for sale. Plus he needs the heater controls in metric, not freedum units
Is this where we lament the loss of knobs in cars?he needs the heater controls in metric, not freedum units
My work truck has numbers for temp and I swear the only thing I ever use it for is to go "hay gais, look how hot/cold it is"
Hi --------- Lo is vastly underrated.
These days a digital temperature control system is probably cheaper and more reliable than a bi-metal spring with vacuum actuation.
I did prefer an old mercury switch thermostat in the house when I lived with people who were cold all the time. I could bend the indicator dial so it looked like it was 10 degrees warmer than it actually was.
My experience dictates otherwise.
Why? Because I can rip the dash off and fix the mechanical issue
Vacuum actuation? What, you drive audis? I just break fleet level work trucks.

I don't think carmax exists up here, I did a little googling and there appears to some carmax used dealers, but its just in the name.
A lot of old cars used vacuum actuated HVAC controls. Which was great because when that shit broke your engine ran like shit.
The digital setpoint is probably for the people who think that they will warm up faster if they set the dial to hot while the engine is cold, which just makes the engine colder for longer.
I suspect subarus are in this camp....based on some of the flailing of friends and coworkers.
Word. I have had some digital shit break in a chevy silverado I drive for work. That was a way bigger issue to fix than "find the spring or gear drive on the louvers" I've done on an other things. Actually the way that thing keeps failing a pneumatic hose leaking would explain some things....
I just ament the loss of the ability to pull things apart and fix without buying new mystery boxes.

The more I look the more I'm liking the VW Golf Sportwagen. There also seems to be a bunch under $30k with around 40-45k miles on them.
How about 40 bucks and some timbits?
40 american and enough timbits to build the ramp.
We have standards here in america regarding what we'll eat. Timbits are way too fancy and valuable considering lumber costs...
I live in the realm of mystery boxes and find them easier to deal with, just requires different tools .
I've diven deep into the world of analog and it is easier to work on, impossible to work well. It was easier to build my own fuel injection system than it was to get the most tunable carbs in the world to work properly. At some point when you are trying to modify emulsion tubes you realize it is fucking pointless.
I miss hooning that deathtrap

Yeah, yeah your fuel injection stuff on on old carbureted motors is the only reason I respect you.
I still modify carburetors on my dirtbikes because AAA doesn't come to random spots in the woods

Hey, that picture is of carburators on an fuel injected motor, (head at least). You can see where I blocked the fuel injection ports with nickels.
Apologies, I thought carrying a bicycle was a driver.
How about these for transportation of motorcycles?
Anyways, we have plates on all the bikes even the trials bike and just ride from home.
The beta 200 I bought that is specifically designed to be platable in europe has made me an outlaw in california. Some goods we need to hide in transport now. That bigger van should handle covering the dirtbike in patagonia puffys just fine. They'll never suspect a thing!
The Freeride, emoto and the trials bikes all fit in the Caddy. The full size forks are too tall.
There’s no more green stickers on 2 strokes in California right?
So wait, are you getting a van or do I need a pile of Patagonia down jackets?
Can you wait until next week? I only go down to the city once a week and I was there yesterday.
No hurry.
oil-based synthetics keep
Maybe grab some febreeze at some point if convenient. I'll reimburse that bit.
Hmmm
