PermaGray Take:  Exactly.....there are some here that seem to be indifferent to leaving their info in their cars, but if you’ve ever had your personal information stolen and used before (I have, through no fault of my own), you realize how ridiculously vulnerable you are. All it takes is a less than honest person with…

I just wrote almost the exact same thing a second ago! Starred for correct take.

I was thinking to hit NP as that's a pretty cool silhouette, until I followed the link helpfully supplied by Rob...the original was simply gorgeous. Instead of giving him $35k for the car, he should rather be fined $35k for covering up a classic! CP squared.

Helen Mirren’s secret submarine?!?

PermaGray take:. LOVED these cars back in the late 80's, early 90's; in fact, had a crush on a guy that drove one. Thought they looked great then, still find the form to be attractive ...... But not 11.5k attractive. Sure, BAT may be selling them high, but I recall these being somewhat problematic compared to other…

Well that was fast. I literally just read the mileage discrepancy article one second ago!

The front of the Z71 is *ghastly*. 😱 It looks like a bandage that's been plastidipped.

Thank you from the PermaGrays, Patrick...you will be sorely missed. You helped create and foster a place that while I don't comment very often, I come to multiple times per day, because it's just that good. Godspeed, and the very best of luck in your future endeavors.

I’ve got an 02 with 160k miles on it, been a very good car. Bought it with 80k miles on it five years ago.....only real mechanical complaint is the front suspension. She’s a greedy wench, likes to eat them for breakfast; thank goodness my husband is a talented DIYer. Alas, is beginning to show electrical issues so…

OMG, that’s my car! Well, not my literal car, but I have the same thing.....judging by the rims, I’m betting it’s got the very antique V6 Vulcan engine, rather than the updated (for then) 6 cylinder. Love the car, btw! Bought it for $2100 with 80k miles on it about five years ago, been a very reliable and comfortable…

What's sad is that read exactly as something David would have written. Bravo!

Native Texan here, giving a solid thumbs up; this is what trucks should look like and how they should behave. Haul hay in the daytime, and haul butt at the drags in the nighttime. 👍. I so want one.....

Take your star for a Red Green reference! :-)

I'd noticed recently that I wasn't seeing much if her here.....what happened?

Finish repairing my home post-Harvey?

I dislike the exterior of the car, especially the rear; it reminds me of a Ford Taurus of all things. I do appreciate that they are offering interior trim colors - that’s something I miss from older generations of cars, a colorful interior instead of all black, all beige or all grey.  I'd love it if other…

That color is GLORIOUS! Why can't we have something similar on other cars?

You get my star of the day for "truckosexuals"!

Hey, you're back! Glad to see you again.

I can’t speak as to the reliability of this gen of Volvo, but look at those lines.... I’d buy it for that alone. Why in the name of all that is holy can’t cars today look that crisp and clean in design?!
