Well, then maybe a camping trip across the border with an over night stay at a Sams Club?  ------------- Cliff & Raelynn Ranger 4.0/178 (1/2 ton 5,800lb tow capacity) |

no trip planned to USA this year. Exchange rate is killing it for us. But by the time we find a good used Rpod maybe :-) As for Cdn Tire 219.99/each for unbranded (mastercraft) lead-acid... At that price I'll buy a branded AGM which would be just a tad more... thx ------------- On a lookout for a used 179 (177 second choice) |
