Thanks that would have been great but Oakville is far west for the team, we need something south of hwy 7 no further west than 27 and no further east than probably Pt Union.

Al, thanks for all of your help. Good luck with your new venture. You were the first and only dealer I had complete trust with.

I'll just chime in with the good wishes all. Hope your new venture goes well, and I hope the folks at the dealership carry on what you started. You've certainly been a real asset to the community.

Unless that's not the one Al speaks of.

Thanks for all the chats while I was in for servicing Al. You've probably forgotten more about cars than I could ever hope to know. And even though I didn't buy the car from you (my brother started selling them in Kingston a while after I talked to you about the 8), I'd have to say you helped convince me to get one. 5.5 years, I have no regrets. Good luck !!

Damn, this is crazy news. The good news is Al is closer to my work and closer to my future house.

Al I wish you all the best in the future and am sure I will see you around. Do you think your shop could do brakes/tires/exhaust on an RX8?

Let me know when that Toyota/Subaru coup thing comes out....I might have to check it out.

WTH...You're not allowed to leave, you didn't run it by us!

Congrats on the new job!! They are lucky to get you, and Scarb Mazda should pay you more to keep you. Scarb mazda won't be the same.

Thanks for all your advice, instruction and caring about this little community. You were like the God Father without the guns lol.

Don't be a stranger, or become a rotary hater lol.

P.S. We should all do a group dinner or drinks for this sad occasion

P.S.S. sent you an email Al

Let's reschedule for next week. Doesn't look like there's much interest and I had something just come up for tomorrow too.
