My guess is that it will take on the Cross Country name, as in V90 Cross Country. The XC70 never really fit in with the other XC cars anyway, especially positioned between the XC60 and XC90.

For what it’s worth, the S80 V8 with the stock exhaust still sounds pretty surprising for a Volvo....

A lot of the times it’s the curve in the road, at least if you’re around the actual city. For whatever reason, people are incapable of maintaining at least the speed limit through any curve. People either brake because they feel like they have to, or they brake because others are struggling to stay in their lane…

Trans issues have absolutely not been on the radar, especially with the general public, as long as gay rights issues have. I’m not sure what would make you think that. The T was ignored even more than the B, in LGBT, for many, many years.

Well no, that isn’t exactly true. It only applies to trans. I was saying that your comment gave the wrong impression to people who aren’t necessarily in the know, but I think you are actually mistaken yourself. When you mention cis-women and then immediately follow that up with the statement that you can be fired for…

You’ve never driven anywhere near downtown Milwaukee if you think 2 hour traffic jams occur in any other situation than serious, entire highway closing accidents/incidents.

Wisconsin was the first state to add non-discrimination protection for sexual orientation in employment. Back then, anything trans related wasn’t anywhere near the radar.

Your mention of cis women and being able to fire people based on gender gives the wrong impression. You absolutely cannot fire a cis woman for being a woman as sex discrimination is illegal in the state.

You should be looking at Mercedes as well, as they are the worst offender. At least Audi screens can retract and BMW screens sit in a little indentation area like it was designed for the screen to be there. The screen in the C Class (and others) looks like it was added after the interior was finished.

I don’t understand why anyone with keyless entry and start wouldn’t keep the key in their pocket or purse at all times.

Neither of those are unique features to American cars.

Easy solution: Move the key pot. Though I’ve never encountered a car that let you open it with the key that far away, let alone actually start it. My last car had an antenna in the center console to detect the key in the front seat area. If you even walked to the trunk, where there was another antenna (along with the…

It’s the S90 at the very least

It’s kind of odd that they’d release the “Hello” single to streaming but not the entire album.

No, it’s just that we aren’t getting the AWD version of the Q30. If you want a Q30 and want AWD, you’ll have to settle for the QX.

Don’t forget the plates, tablecloths, and napkins that start showing up in June each year!

Given the age of the car (it’s a pre-LCI e92 so it’s at least 5 years old) there’s a pretty good chance it’s totaled.

Isn’t it also relevant that Acela doesn’t have dedicated tracks? From what I remember, the tracks they use are too close together in some areas to take full advantage of the tilting of the train at higher speeds, meaning it must slow down for many sections. I believe there are also issues with other parts of the…

I once had to explain the difference between a V6 and an I6 to a salesperson after he mistakenly told me my soon to be car was a V6.

That’s the problem. The “FKL” plate was the legitimate plate and production swapped the plate at some point to try to avoid conflict, which is illegal for them to do.
