The first generation Nissan Micra (also known as the K10) was first introduced to us back in the early nineteen eighties and Canadian sales of the K10 ended in 1991. 
The one and only engine is a compact and lightweight DOHC 1.6-litre 4-cylinder that features dual fuel injection and Continuously Variable Timing Control systems, in order to increase power and fuel efficiency. So, not only is Micra inexpensive to buy, it’s also inexpensive to run. Combined city/highway fuel consumption is rated at 7.9 L/100km, and 8.0L/100km with the automatic transmission. So, its total average annual fuel bill is estimated to be $2,080.
The Dodge Journey is a long serving and highly versatile crossover utility vehicle (2009-2020). It features three rows of seating for up to seven passengers, and has been around since 2009. Just two editions, Canadian Value Package and Crossroad, were marketed for the recent model year, which is a good indicator that the end of this Journey is near.  
Dodge Journey is also not lacking in terms of passenger safety and security, with more than 40 features available. These include multistage front passenger air bags, active head restraints, electronic stability control with all-speed traction control, electronic roll mitigation and Brake Assist, driver-side knee blocker air bag, side-curtain air bags covering all three rows, front seat-mounted side air bags, LATCH child seat anchor system and trailer-sway control.
I walked in front of the truck for a few metres and up popped a giant Black bear from the tall grass. It must have towered seven-feet. Maybe that’s two metres in metric. As I was in the fishing mood maybe I was already in the traditional fish-catch exaggeration mode but who cares? - It looked darned big to me.
