Eh, I’d argue “old school” NASCAR is found at local dirt ovals around the country every weekend.

The laziness of that driver-less car rendering bugs the crap out of me every time I see. Why is the center stack offset towards the passenger side? Why is there a dead pedal on the driver’s side?

I was on cross-country bike trip and was intending to take some dirt roads on my Ducati Monster along the way just for the hell of it. I had left Santa Fe that morning and was heading into the Valles Caldera area. Rt 126, according to Google Street View, was dirt and gravel, but graded and in good shape. LIES. 12

I won’t take it so far as racist, but yeah, they committed a crime, there is an established schedule of punishment and it is not instant death without trial.

KIA dealers seem to have forgotten that they’re selling KIAs.

The 911 was originally supposed to be called a 901, but a trademark infringement by Peugot made Porsche change to 911. Shortly thereafter, a 4 cyl variant was offered, called the 912. So far so good, we’re moving in order.

Here’s the problem... There were a lot of people who wanted a 911, but couldn’t justify the cost of adding an expensive toy to their garage. The Macan and Cayenne allowed Joe Family to buy a Porsche and not need a 3rd car to do it. They needed to build to a new market, but could sell to the guy who always wanted a

I’m 34 years old. I’ve owned 2 Harleys (2004 Sportster 1200R and a 1964 XLCH), and 3 Buells (2007 XB12R, 2009 1125CR, and 2002 S3T). I will never own another HD or Buell in my life, agining into it or not. I’ve since been on Triumphs and Ducatis - the Triumph more comfortable, the Ducati more fun, and both FAR more

Samsies. I think the V90 is a better looking vehicle, but I’d still buy the V60.

I’m a SoCal transplant, and started saying “The 101", “The 405", “The 23", etc with no issue - it felt normal and natural right away.

An All Track is a Golf, which is a compact car, not midsize. This is bigger, though probably just slightly smaller than a V70. But I agree, the All Track is the perfect size.

Figure this will be less by about $10k.

+1 to that. Our V60 is a great place to be, take a road trip, load up with dogs and bicycles and friends and what not... but hooning it is not it’s happy place.

The author seems to have only quoted the heavy hybrid model. A 2018 V60 is on par with a 3-series wagon weight wise, except that the Volvo can be lighter since AWD is not mandatory. No way the regular drive train model packed another half ton.

Good to hear - We just picked up a ‘17 and intend on keeping it for the long haul.

Volvo deals, man! My wife and I bought a V60 last fall. The no-haggle, just walked in the door and asked how much price was nearly $11,000 off MSRP. Couldn’t say no.

A 2018 T5 V60 is under 3,700 lbs. Not light, but plenty respectable for a wagon of this size. It’s on par with a 3-series wagon.

I may be a little biased having just bought a 2017 V60, but while I like this one more, it’s not blowing me away. Something about the styling looks more like a smashed down XC60 than a shrunken V90 (not unexpected). All of the individual components look great, but as a package it’s missing the sleek-ness of V90.

It’s crazy that crap like this ever works. I’m going to start using it on stuff I sell on Criagslist.

Drummer, here. Don’t over-think it.
