Pup approved
First trek to a short hike with the pups.
I didn't really need to, but I put it in dirt mode for a bit.
I think I chose a good color for the wild!
Pun intended..
Since the wilderness is not available in Canada these days.
Introduction to the Rockies
Last Monday was my first time doing the 4+ hour commute from my home to my work.
We drove through the Rockies together for the first time. What a treat .
Took a pit stop at the Castle Mountain rest stop west of Banff.
38 years later.
​
I worked as a parts person and service advisor in the late 80s at a dealership in Ottawa Canada.
I always had a soft spot for Subaru but never came around to owning one. Today, that changed. Drove it home from the dealer over 200km away.
I love it so far.
Evening Therapy
I took Sukha, my Versys 650, for a mind clearing ride between Kimberley and Cranbrook,British Columbia this evening.
Did some pleasant discovering of quiet, twisty foresty roads and found this spot pre sunset. The haze is mostly from forest fires in the mountains to my west.
ISO Toyota Tundra independent Mechanic/shop
I`m looking for suggestions for a a Calgary area shop that knows how to work on Toyotas. Airdrie, Cochrane , Okotoks or Strathmore works too. I have a decent 2012 Tundra 4.6l that needs some simple work done. If I had a decent shop , I would attempt it myself but I`m not really set up to do anything more than seasonal tire changes and oil changes. Thank you in advance .
A little camping
Went for a 1 nighter and a dusk dip in the lake last night.
First camp out of 2026. Busy year.

Thoughts on 2012 tundra 4.6 Timing chain replacement
Newbie here. My local shop will be replacing my leakee water pump in the next few weeks. They suggested possibly doing the timing chain and adjusters. It has 350000KM( Almost 220000miles) It runs well. I dont haul much more than my 500 lb snowmobile a few times a year. Would anyone be willing to share some knowledge and thoughts on the longevity of these components for this Toyota? Than you in advance.
Please bring it to Canada while I can still ride and tour. I`m 60 yo right now.
