CR-V owner in Toronto

I am a proud owner of a CR-v 1999. Just wanted to get my membership on this thread :)

ronnroz - welcome to the CRVOC. Glad to have you here!

Thought a true Toronto person would appreciate this one. Took it June 28, 2005 while on a business trip in the midst of a HEAT WAVE in Toronto. Was nearly 90 degrees. Can you guess which building I was in? I believe I was on floor 50 something...

The Canada Trust tower at the BCE Place ??????????

Yep, that's it! Really neat views from there.

well i cheated a little bit with help from google earth by figuring out the angles of the street in relation to camera position....yes i had too much time on my hands at the time so i saw it as a little puzzle.

Wow. Rough day at the office? :)

Since you guessed it, here is a pic from the same spot, looking nearly straight down. Toronto has some really cool views!

yeah, had lots of time to kill waiting,

whenever i get that high up in a building i aways feel like i'm gonna fall through the glass, i actually approach the window with my knees bent and leaning away, but it just happens over 7 stories or higher :eek:

Hey guys.

Just wondering where I can get a keyless entry for my 03 CRV. I would love to get the one like they have at Handa-accessories, but they don't deliver to Canada.

I am looking at the Canadian Tire remote starters, but the install alone will be over $200. I was looking at the directions of the Handa remote and it looks pretty easy. I don't really care about alarm, remote starter etc.

I'm in the Niagara area and I am willing to travel to get it.

Thanks

Mike

Call collegehillshonda.com. They might be able to help....

You list your location as Niagra Falls... Any way to simply come over to the US and get one from a US dealer? (call them first)

Is that the CN Tower?
Is it true there's a glass floor at the top you can walk over and look down to ground level?

Jump on it!! Stuff that, I don't think I'd even walk on it
Must be pretty scary though, looking down 1800ft through a piece of glass:eek: :eek:

One day I will get to Canada, especially Toronto as I would love to see The Leafs play live:)

fellow TDot resident and yes u can more than jump on it. its suppose to support the weight of like something ridiculous like 6 African elephants on any point of the glass surface.

you want to have fun with the CN Tower? try going for a nice dinner ... you will have access to the observation deck and other amenities by default, save some money that way. OR do the CN Tower Climb for United Way. My record is 27 mins and yes I wanted to quit multiple times and felt like I was going to collapse but let me tell you its a motivator, a motivator to get you fit.
