It's beginning to look like there has been a shift in the Volvo Line from Augusta to Bangor. Can anyone dispute this? Should we be taking any steps to keep it from moving any further?

Hahaha. No Volvo here. Got my big old Ram 3/4 ton. Might be a gashog, but beats a yuppy wagon any day.

I drive a VW but then again as a college student I do not have enough money to feed an expensive thirsty truck. Hour commute to campus and a half hour to work. Truck won't hack it.

We have a Volvo car and I'm not all that impressed. There seems to be problems with the electrical system. I need to replace headlight bulbs every month or so. The cars gas milage is o.k. But I drive like an ass any way. I was looking at a Volvo dump truck that seems to be o.k. I will let you know. Well got to go hug the wife. Later Dave.

We had a VW bug many many years ago. Wasn't a bad little car. A truck is necessary for us, as never know what we might have to haul (camper, race car, hay, ect}. Plus my dh is a very tall guy and needs more legroom than most cars have. Truck usually is parked most of the week as he has a company truck. I am just glad we don't have to pay the diesel bill for that!!!

LOL!
Therre is a difference between a brand new spanking Volvo and a lovingly refurbished vintage (often 2 tone due to poor paint job) with a noisy muffler Volvo. Let us wish for the latter

Default The old Volvos are classic

Never owned a Volvo but know of a few guys that like the older models (70s,80s) because they are sensible cars to own for the costs. So, hopefully the Volvo line will leave moraines of well-maintained car boulders in upcoming decade. LOL
