That makes me squint and hurts my pocket just looking at that advert. $500US starting bid for a steering wheel assembly.

Geoff, I've consulted the Manuals, and studied many photos, and I'm willing to wager that THIS GOES JUST IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT! :p :yappy: :doh:

So, just to confirm, the value of a carrier is 80 steering wheels? And is there a table of other accepted equivalent values, say motors, track tensioners or other widgets? And is that expressed in Canadian, American or other values?

Grant,

For our Aussie brethren, perhaps 'roos, sheep, dingos or crocs could be bartered with in trade for the beloved carrier...

At the current price of 80 carrier steering wheels, what is the fair exchange value on the forementioned trade goods??? :kangaroo :p

chris vickery 16-11-07 03:26

Further to my last, here in Northern Ontario we have to trade maple syrup, firewood, moose meat, pickerel and the odd French Canadian girl...

Bob Moseley (RIP) 16-11-07 03:31

Question
 
Chris - What is the difference between the value of an "Odd French Canadian Girl" and an un-odd one?
Bob

Geoff Winnington-Ball (RIP) 16-11-07 03:46

Moot point, Bob, they're all odd. You'd rather go swimming in a pond full of hungry crocs, believe me... :D

chris vickery 16-11-07 03:52

OK Bob, while I type this, my French Canadian other half is carefully monitoring my response to this one....

I knew my posting would evoke something...

Odd, meaning either a) rarely found specimen or b) strange

Take it as you will, I believe odd as per definition "a" although "b" may apply in certain circumstances...

I think that really, at this particular moment there isn't really a right or wrong answer;

I think odd or un-odd would be the same value although some, like their beer and could be costly.

Or c) Celine Dion.

Tony, you hit the nail on the head with that one. I can't stand her, especially to look at on stage...

Worse than nails on a chalkboard...:blink:
