yesterday and drove it home to Vancouver. Of course it was pouring rain (rain in the PNW, imagine my surprise). This thing is amazing in that weather! Puddles on the I-5 the size of Lake Michigan and it just effortlessly motored right on through.
That was just a teaser...now it sits in my garage for 3 weeks waiting for paperwork and for the Canadian spec bumper to show up from Germany.....hopefully the drool on the hood won't leave a permanent mark!

I see the confusion (Port of Tacoma). No, I bought in Dallas and had it shipped via DAS. Tacoma
happens to be their terminal closest to Vancouver. I thought it safer to go down myself rather than get some jobber to handle it again.

Yes, the Denizens at Transport Canada deemed the US bumper inadequate for Canucks. I don't know if
it's a comment on our bad driving skills or on our large Moose population. Either way, it's costing me $4000 to get three lousy parts. Two shock absorbers and a bumper plate.
