We just traded in our 3 yr old Volvo. It’s a true European car and breaks all the time and was very expensive to fix. I purchased for the safety aspect, but just couldn’t deal with it any longer.

I see the Volvo salespeople have resorted to spamming DCUM in their desperation to hit their April #s.

There’s one Volvo in our Bethesda neighborhood and that's about it.


It is me!
And it is not true.

Well Volvo’s are not seen as luxury cars like those other three. Volvo’s are for stodgy old Wasps.


Who needs such a big car if you are old and stodgy and Waspsy? It could have been true up until the station wagons but once Volvo SUV's came into the pictures, families jumped it.

I’m sorry to say but that is butt ugly. I’d really like to like it because I hear they are safe, but yuck. And it looks like you are crammed in there good. No thanks.

Seriously? What are you smoking. Just take your silver Swiss Army Knife and cut a little line in your high gloss hand glued eucalyptus dashboard each time a Volvo passes by and a dot once a Mercedes passes by you and then at the end of the day.
Oh and once you are done with the count, just get some duct tape and tape over those cuts so your dashboard will look like new.


Weird

Buy a Tahoe or Yukon like a real modest American. Ford Expedition is acceptable, too. All three are assembled in the US.

Thank you. I’m so tired of Chinese garbage.


Volvo is made in China. Land Rover is owned by Indian company so what is left if you want European car?

I don’t know anyone who drives one and I think 46k+ is ridiculous to pay for any vehicle that automatically depreciates as soon as you buy it l.


Like which car does not depreciate as soon as you buy it? oh wait, Elvis's car?

Will it come with a complimentary MAGA hat? Asking for a lot of friends.
