Economic Stimulus Package - addendum
Hoping to get Ontario Plates soon for the Porsche (Boxster S).... however must get new tires 1st. Apparently having tires that meet just the following criteria are not safe:
1. hold air
2. are black in colour
3. are round
is not enough to meet safety certification. Ok - 1 or 2 wearbars are showing.... but it's on the inside of the tire.... Porsche's are low riding cars with a fair amount of toe-in.
Oh well, tack on $1100 cdn to the car bill, this time spent locally, should have changed tires in the states before bringing her back. Could have saved a few benjamins....
Tires should be in by Wednesday next week, hopefully sooner.... then Ont. plates. Meantime, my Illinois Temp Tag is good far a few more days.
