Can’t that be said about virtually every era of VW?

I would drive the shit out of that. It has a strange charm.

It’s not his hearing I’d worry about... It’s his reaction time and eye sight. Ears are useful for driving, but no where near required. Bunch of deaf folks at my college, only one I ever saw get in an accident was checking her Sidekick when someone pulled out of a parking space in front of her.

That’s awesome. Mutual car-love helping someone get through a scary situation. Sometimes a good distraction is all we need.

Very conflicted by this. I feel this opens the door for “We canceled the V90 wagon because the V90XC outsold it 6 to 1 in the United States.” in 2018.

I mean, maybe this is the wrong way to look way to look at it, but I’m kind of happy that he didn’t actually quit the show in a blaze of hatred, and that at the very least he wasn’t a hypocritical asshole.
