Jeez - I just got contacted by one of our Canadian Northern Tribesmen and was told that Canadians have to pay about $7.00/pack for smokes!!! Apparently, in Canada, they come 25 smokes/pack. That's $0.28/smoke!!!

Let's see, I can buy untaxed premium cigarettes in NC for $8.00/carton - 200 smokes for $0.04/smoke. That means a whopping $0.24/smoke PROFIT!!! Boy, this indicates a $6.00/pack profit!!! THEN, at 10 packs/carton - a $60.00/carton profit. At 30 cartons/case, one can expect a return of $1800.00/case return on their investment!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, me Vanagon, without the rear seats, can comfortably haul 32 cases of premium smokes up to our beleaguered, downtrodden, overtaxed Nothern Tribesmen! At $1800.00/case, this indicates income potential of $57,600.00 per run from TN to Canada and back!!! Methinks 3-4 Canadian runs is all I need, yearly! Then, I can report back to you dudes/dudettes about how well me '85GL performs in the mountains of St. Croix!

Jeez, this is a MUCH better profit margin than running marijuana!!!!!!!
