Damn, if I were 50 years younger I'd go cruisin'. Volvos are chick magnets.
Damn, quietest engine I've ever heard.
Another cool thing, I can talk to it and it knows what I want. Tomorrow I'm gonna ask it for a blow job.

It parallel parks.
It stays within your lane.
It has 390 degree video.
Heads up display.
Hybrid electric and gas.
Active Air suspension.
Blue metallic.
Trailer hitch.
Won't hit a pedestrian or bicyclist in front.
Warns when a vehicle approaches from behind too rapidly.
Voice commands.
Sirius XM radio.
GPS.
Polestar.
Wheel locks.
Walnut inlay.
Leather heated seats, steering wheel and side view mirrors.
Stainless steel bumper cover.
And to top it off, cup holders.
You can unlock it without a key.
Accelerates better than any car I've ever had.
AWD, with several modes, such as max. MPG, sport mode, winter driving.
Traded in my wife's 2005 Camry, got Kelly Blue Book. Whoever gets that used car will get a good deal because we kept it up and kept it clean.
This is an XC90 Inscription with the T8 engine.
Salesman told me that one of his customers with the XC90 was averaging 40 mpg.

My wife and I are old, we've never really had a top of the line car before and we deserve it. We've worked very hard all of our lives. We've lived frugal while saving. Invested wisely. So, this is our reward.

My advice to all of you out there, is save all that you possibly can and invest it moderately conservatively through a top notch financial advisor. Plan for your old age.

you won't be so happy when some 15 year old hacks the computer(s) and dumps your radiator onto your garage floor....just for fun

Sunday, my neighbor was out working on his new F-250 powerstroke 6.7L diesel. Now, a guy fiddling with his truck on the weekend is not notable. But he was 'working' on it by hooking up a laptop to some module input on the dashboard and changing the truck's settings or starting actual apps that performed special functions. I couldn't believe that shit. You don't need wrenches or sockets, just a damn keyboard and a special OS.

I wonder if cars will start getting viruses

my wife has a new Toyota Highlander hybrid. The driver's manual is 500 pages long and almost all of it is instructions on inputs and settings. The fucking car is beeping at us all the time. It takes 7 tries and plenty of patience just to unlock the doors. If you drive more than 11 feet without the seat belt(s) fastened, it will scream at you at about 177 decibels. We had an empty paper bag sitting on the back seat and the car demanded we buckle it in. I don't recognize anything under the hood...it looks like a spaceship engine.

I'm never trading in my F-350 or my van. What the hell was wrong with a key-start on a car?

These new Volvos are super nice but I don't want a new car either.

I like a real key. Can't lose it on the freeway like a guy did at my shop a few years ago. The car started with the key on the windshield wipers and he drove off to take it to the dealer and it flew off on the way. 500 dollar key by the way.

Pretty much any car from 1996 0n has an obd2 port that can be connected to a scanner to program the cars computer. It can do things like set the timing, adjust air/fuel ratio etc. You still need wrenches for many things though as a laptop can't change the spark plugs, water pump, radiator, brakes etc.

Lanny, just so you know, those tailpipes are not approved by Volvo for unauthorized use.
