10 lmtimes.ca • Last Mountain Times • Monday, April 17, 2023 Everything gets a shot at being cool Chrysler seemingly owned the minivan market forever. The Magic Wagon started it, quickly becoming known as the Dodge Caravan and Plymouth Voyager. I even remember seeing some basic utility models with the big RAM badges that the pickups had. Ford had the big, clunky Aerostar, and GM had the boxy Astro and Safari vans based on the Chevy S10 pickup platform, but no one else had a minivan as early as Chrysler. In 1990, GM decided to step into the ring with a trifecta of minivans so wild and futuristic Camshaft Corner that they, unfortunately, didn’t KELLY KIRK catch on. The Pontiac Trans Sport, Oldsmobile Silhouette, and Chevy Lumina APV were three of the oddest minivans that ever debuted. Chrysler did what they always did back in the day; they drew a vehicle with a ruler, marked out some corners, and sold a bunch of them. The Caravan and Voyager were both as boxy as the Ram, and they had decent seating for seven, which is all they needed to do. All GM had to do was take the lines of the Chevette and expand it into a van, but instead, they went full Jetson. To their credit, the Trans Sport looked almost exactly like the concept that came before it, aside from the gullwing rear doors and on-board Nintendo NES, of course. The unfortunate part of a production vehicle looking like a concept is that the concept usually favours form over function. The windshield of the Trans Sport, for example, cost a small fortune to replace and was apparently a nightmare with dash glare in certain driving conditions. Over the course of seven model years, the Trans Sport was available with a great variety of V6 engines to choose from. Honestly, there wasn’t I never liked these vans when they were new. The huge windshield with the big corner windows and the flat hood was just too much of one line. This one looks great on C4 Corvette saw blade wheels with a hard lowered stance. The photo has randomly been shared online, origin unknown. much of anything wrong with the 3.1, 3.4, or 3.8 V6, all three of which were widely used in many GM cars, the same platform of cars that these vans were based on. I haven’t seen a Trans Sport in years, but any that I’ve ever seen have been white, which I think helped to earn them the nickname “Pontiac Dustbuster.” The long snout mixed with the white paint job, you can’t un-see it. I recall seeing a red Oldsmobile Silhouette years ago, but I have never seen a Lumina APV in real life. After 1996, GM took all the creativity out of their vans, and actually sold quite a few units. Seeing this surviving Trans Sport on saw blade mags makes me glad that they did exist briefly, and it proves that with the right wheels and stance, anything can be at least a little bit cool.

By the 1980s, canola had replaced rapeseed in Canadian oilseed production, and today the acres produced are massive, and the crop’s value forms the foundation of most farm incomes. While there certainly are few indications that will change anytime soon, one has to wonder what may one day unseat canola as the major Prairie crop? The answer might not be a single crop as much as a rather diverse basket of crops, all of which fall under the umbrella of being pulse crops. Lentils, peas, and various beans are not something new for the Prairies. My Dad used to add some field peas into the barley he seeded for pig feed, essentially adding a protein source to the feed in the field. That was in the early 1970s. So farmers here can grow pulse crops, but the markets have never been particularly stable, typically relying on production issues elsewhere in the world for major pulse-eating countries such as India and Pakistan to look for alternate sources. In Canada, while we have production, it isn’t necessarily as diverse to fill the varied and often very specific markets in countries such your children are, they’ll be a handful this week.
