Nice! Looks like you were somewhere on the Icefields Parkway....:cool:
On a trip to Saskatchewan last year:

Beautiful day for a long distance highway drive...

Yes, we have arrived at "The Crooked Bush".... enough said.
The cargo pod effectively tripled Little Guy's cargo capacity; you now have room for 5 and ALL their luggage, as per our recent trip to Riding Mountain National park in Friendly Manitoba, Canada:

Hi everyone, it's been a while since I've posted on this board; my sincerest apologies but we had to go "off...
Dinosaur Provincial Park north of Brooks is another interesting drive; there's a dirt road loop thru one part of the park that will take you by some active dino dig sites; we're planning on taking...
Well, it's fall now in central Alberta, and we decided to take the Little Guy on a short trip to Elk Island National Park, just 30 east of Edmonton on the Yellowhead Highway this past Thanksgiving...
[QUOTE=ABMicra17;19973]Mia and I went on a road trip this afternoon.
Hope you had a great road trip; hopefully not too smoky down there. Even though our Little Guy didn't originally come with...
Greetings from the 2017 Edmonton Air Show, and here's our Micra, Outstanding In The Field as always!!! :D

My wife and I caught the air show at the Villeneuve Airport (about 40 min...
Nope, from Canadian Tire. The factory tip selling at the Nissan dealership where we bought the Little Guy was going for $40, so we said Uh......no.
It's a rolled / beveled chrome tip about 3 inch exhaust with 2.5 inches at the inlet, with 3 mounting screws (you'll need an allen key). The Micra's factory exhaust tip is bent slightly downwards for...
Luckily we drove back up Highway 93 from Radium back into Alberta on Canada Day, when the fires were just starting around Williams Lake and 100 Mile House. Now we've heard that 93 has been closed off...
It was a simple screw-in type, similar to this one:

In the late 90's we used to drive a '95 Suzuki Swift, 1.3L engine with about 70 hp and a 5 speed manual. It was "challenging" to take that down the Coquihalla, particularly on the steeper sections....
Canadian Tire had another sale today, so we thought we'd complete "Little Guy's Canadian Tire Collection" by adding a chrome exhaust tip and new wheel covers in addition to the splash guards we...
We were averaging around 5.7 L per 100 km for the entire trip, as per the trip computer. In the mountains (depending on the incline) we would get 8 to 10+ litres per 100 km going up 6% to 8% grades,...
It was, and we had no problems finding a parking spot at any of these places either!
While driving thru southern AB and southeastern BC we noticed quite a few other Micras but they all had the AB rental car license plates, which is kinda interesting...
That's one sweet ride, thanks for sharing!

Now just outside of Field BC, on our way to Takakkaw Falls in Yoho National Park...

Definitely more Micra In The Mountains...
Happy Canada 150 everyone! To celebrate Canada Day Long Weekend this year, we toured the Kootenay area of BC with the Little Guy (and yes, he's sporting the bug net):

Nice place to...
My wife and I are originally from Winterpeg Manitoboggan, I grew up in St Boniface and lived in the good old North End for a while before moving to Edmonton. My wife used to live just off of Logan...
Just a couple of hundred shy of 30k, not bad after about 10 months of ownership. It was quite the trip, glad to share our experiences with everyone
We did notice while we were in Vegas, most of the Nissans (Versa, Sentra, X-Terra, Rogue, Altima, Maxima, etc.) had California license plates, more than any other state (even Nevada). Those West...
Ok everyone, here are the "Continuing Adventures of The Little Guy"...
We just arrived back in Edmonton from spending a few weeks in February in Las Vegas and exploring Death Valley; we must have...
