I got a job for 8 months in Labrador City (January-Sept 2007), so I'll probably be storing the cobalt in my parents garage. Sucks I wont be able to drive it all summer, but I dont think I can justify driving it there.

No codes and it sounds incredible. I got that one from the wreckers. All said and done, I spent $45 in parts and probably 3-4 hours moding it and painting it. Alot better than $200-300 for a new one

I droped the car off at O'regans on robie at 7am monday to get my winters put on (pretty good timing if you ask me).. once I finally got to Robie st.. only 2+ hrs drive from Bedford, it took me an hour to get back home in Clayton Park West.

Other than the usual idiots on the road the cobalt was great in the snow.
