Right Hand Drive?

Of course! That's how we Canadians do it right! When sheeple up here ask me why Right Hand Drive, I tell them it's better than the alternative: wrong hand drive. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

It's a monstrous bird-of-prey, waiting to swoop down and devour your...

Wait.

Never mind.

Phil has joined the Partridge Family...

Well, here's a few more to start - went out to take some pics yesterday, got busy for a little while in the garage, and when I turned around to take some pics, the camera was already dead (-28*C will do that).

Here are the tires that came on it, Yoko Geolandar I/T's, awesome snowtire!

And here's the first shot, in the garage:
[Linked Image]

A few other bonuses... lights on the front are PIAA's. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> Toolkit was almost complete (have to put the flashlight in there). The magnetic torch is still in place in the back. The windscreen has defrost wires under the wipers. The glowplug system has a light instead of having to listen for clicks. And the biggest bonus so far? The owner's manual (in Japanese) was in the glovebox! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> I have never seen one left in a JDM truck before.

When it warms up I'll get lots more pics. I have taken it for a few rides - it is very smooth. Completely different to drive from number IV. Not better or worse, just a total change. So far - LOVE IT!

I got to go for a 'round the suburbs cruise in it. Very nice truck. I tried to trade Phil for my truck but he wouldn't go for it.

Has me thinking about converting again. I do remember saying when I can get the 2.8 I'm all over it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" />
