No, you didn't miss that, but you did miss the fact that Canadian wages are generally lower as well. Work out the US and Canadian prices in multiples of the corresponding average weekly wage, and then see who's chuckling. :p

Is it true some Canadians work in the U.S. (but still live in Canada)? Best of both worlds I guess..

changer vs mp3 player

i got to wondering yesterday about the reason why the changer wasn't standard in some package. then it dawned on me that i might already have the answer. because the single player/ mp3 player and the changer fit in the same spot in the head unit. since the changer they have available to them doesn't play mp3's and there is a large demand building for mp3 players perhaps they didn't want to make the choice between the two and so decided to offer both in the US thinking they were doing customers a favor by offering them more choice. does that sound logical or am i crazy?

Another thing, can't people from the us go and buy a car in Canada or viceversa?

No they don't! Also, the Canadian models also do not have the 5 speed manual transmission and they are only available with the sport suspension. :D :D :D
