While taking one of my trucks for the OOP I stumbled upon another Subaru in an alley.Low and behold it was another member of this forum. Where abouts in Canada are you from,and what do you drive? This might make any hookups easier. I live in Airdrie,Alberta and between me and a buddy have 4 Sambars(2 SC)of which 3 are kinda for sale.
Soon to be another Northern Ontario owner Another week or two should be here.... Suzuki Carry's and Daihatsu Hijet's coming in for me and the boy's. Can't wait to get them.
Boys, Just went and looked at a new 2008 Tonka Truck(China made). It is a nice looking truck alright. Had 17 miles. Had nice factory wheels, interior had plenty of room, bed was a little longer, had ac, drove nice, really seemed like a good truck until I stopped and took a close look. One thing the ac didnt work, 4 wheel drive button on dash would not kick in the front diff.. Reason being, it didnt have a front diff. They removed it and blanked the trasfercase off. The importer said they are having problems with the front drive system and they told the retail customer as soon as the bugs are worked out they will send it to him. Basic copy cat of Japanese Kei truck. Price tag 9500.00/10500.00. Hmmmm. Not with a 10 ft. pole. No,notta,aint happening,pass. I'll take a $5000.00, 40k mile Jap truck any day. Nothing Ventured Nothing Gained.
I am here in Edmonton, Alberta. Have my 89 Acty in the back yard waiting for me to make it pass OOP. When it does..... WHEEEEEEE!!!!
Sorry. I haven't weighted in yet. I've got a 91 Carry. I've had it just about a year now. I'm in the Edmonton area (Just a little north of Stony Plain). Has anyone in Canada put a Black Line snow plow on their Carry? Hey Subaru, Kinda interested in a SC Samba. How many K's on yours?? PM me lets discuss. G
Prince George BC Import and sell units, My current longer term daily driver was Mitsi (Now listed in trucks for sale) section as Sambar SC is now here. , For sale ( kinda was hoping to keep it for a while) but yiu know how that goes.
I will be getting a sambar, ordered and paid my money now the waiting time to suffer 3-4weeks. Then their will be one more in mid Vancouver Island.
I'm Canadian (born in Toronto and lived in almost every part of Canada), but living in Japan. I drive different trucks, but right now I'm driving a 2WD Jumbo. I guess being in the business lets me switch around, and I definately have my preferences. Steve
There are at least two in the Creston B.C. area, a Honda and mine, a '91 Hijet. I'm pretty sure there is a third on running around here also.
My buddy has a DD51T Carry in Okotoks, uses it as a work and acreage truck. I have a DB51T Carry extreme south end of Calgary. Use mine to haul tools and supplies around. Grounded for a couple of weeks. Water pump went.
