I'm leaving the country soon, my car will stay here. The tank is at 687 kms, thanks to country roads driving and a road trip to Lunenburg with a passenger. The roads in NS seem to be friendlier regarding fuel economy... or maybe it's just me. Anyway, the car needs an oil change, washer fluid, and a look at the brakes because the steering wheel is still shaking while going at highway speeds. I sent the license plates and vehicle info back to the ICBC in Vancouver so they can cancel my insurance.
