When she came home, I was not a happy camper. Still looking for an excuse to get rid of it. Major torque steer. Plus it sits there and smokes the fronts no matter what tires are on it - and this is with very modest horsepower. I don't recommend it. Although it is pretty comfortable I guess.

And you can't blame me on that TT either - my wife just loved that car from the time it came out, and it was a gift for her. I would have gotten a Boxter in a New York Minute if I had my say! Actually a TT *is* a very good "chick" car.
Just waiting for the judges decision here....and the verdict is.....

I'll let the TT slide, but a Volvo AND a Cayenne?

In such a circumstance, this is your only way out:

Let me guess - you're volunteering to be my kaishakunin.

I hope I don't actually have to drive all the way to eastern MA for that. Maybe we can meet somewhere in the middle, maybe in Erie, PA. There is a Quaker Steak and Lube right off the interstate and I can do that challenge where I eat those "#12" wings or whatever, then we'll take care of biz. One last moment of glory.

I've spoken to Larry.
His opinion is that it would be better to simply let you endure the shame in having a Volvo in your sig....something about comedic value.
A wise man, even in death.

Okay I will use some white-out and do something about the sig. Do you have the phone number of Mike Nesmith's mom?

There's a report out of Stuttgart (or was it Wolfsburg?) that Dr W will be leaving soon to take over as CEO of Volvo.

I'm getting mine through this place called RSS. I believe they are Cargraphic USA. My contact there is Bryan, let him know that Mike Kye sent you. Sucks though, the part is back ordered, and wont be coming for another 2 weeks.
