HI Jeff, and now that someone mentioned US prices are lower than Canadian
prices sometimes..............I understand.
Plus the model availability issue you mention.

Funny how they bundle equipment, almost so you have to get something you
don't want to get something you do.
Is there such a thing as ordering your car exactly they way you want it,
these days, like there once was ?
