As we close out summer 2025, that pivotal summer of 1925 still echoes through Canadian automotive.
Every summer road trip in a Canadian-built Chrysler, Dodge, or Ram traces back to those hot summer days in 1925.

The CRA just caught dealers making this expensive mistake… 💰

Don't let a miscalculation become a costly compliance issue.
