redneckrob and his flock of Volvos

To the lower trim I can see that. The upper 2 trims I think are way too similar in output. That could probably just be done with a tune  idk 

It’s just such a foreign concept compared to all the Volvos I’ve owned.

Are all 3 the same engine, or are the dropping different turbos in there?

Yeah. A friend of mine retired his at 700k on the original engine. The rest of the car was 1 speed bump away from total collapse tho. 

This what the first thing that came to my mind too. 

Haha. My stomach drops when I crest a blind hill on a track IRL so I think that’s an accurate feeling not exclusive to VR

I usually play project cars 2/3. But I think a lot of the newer ones work in VR.

Skip that fancy crap. Racing sims are best played in VR. No contest…. Best part is in VR your hud/gauges are representative of the car, And you get to sit in the interior of whatever car you choose. It’s pretty awesome.

i just submitted the mirage for the most exciting mundane car

holy shit... you’re telling me for half a mill I can have myself a machine that can bore a few hundred miles of tunnel!?!?

Those rates sound amazing. In our case we charge at my wife’s work about 95% of the time which is free.

Watch out Ricky Bobby…. He’s coming for you. 

that only comes to 33hp....

it depends on where you live I think. here in the SF bay area, at home we pay between $0.30 and $0.38/kwh... and its still cheaper than gas by a long shot. it’s about the equivalent of 80~90mpg where we live.

first of all.... car site or not. human rights are at stake here. they’ve already started stripping women of their rights, and are questioning everyone’s right to freely travel from state to state.

oh yeah that exploder is a good one... so mundane i forgot we even had one growing up (a 98)... it was a fantastic car. it was reliable, predictable, drove quite nice, towed just fine, and did everything we asked it to do. the seats folded flat, with plenty of space to sleep back there for camping.

insurance fraud possibly?... be careful out there and always run your dash cam.

I doubt they’re going to take much of a hit.... raw materials they buy today wont be a finished product in showroom floors for another 6~9 months...

there’s a team that races one of these at 24 hours of lemons. 

I have a 92 K1500 ext cab 4x4 with the 350, and 103k miles that I use for towing and chores.... as a vehicle imo it scores below average in every single category you can think of. but much like a swiss army knife, it does everything I need it to do... quite underwhelmingly... but it’s so cheap to keep/run i cant
