    I've always liked the Swedish cars (as evidenced by the fact that I have owned 3 Saab's in the past). I've always thought Volvo's and Saab's were great cars but just priced too high for the market. Without cheap lease deals they didn't move. I wonder why neither Ford or GM tried to price them a little down market to improve sales? Same thing with Volvo's current Chinese owners. It is really hard for them to compete at the same price point as BMW, Mercedes, Lexus and Cadillac.

    • I have no clue about current American music and I don't like what I hear.  I think it really peaked in the seventies, eighties and nineties ... and younger people who come to know that music also come to admit that same thing.
    • For Porsche owners long plagued by PADM system malfunctions, there is no longer any need to resort to blindly expensive repairs. The original factory sensors feature a rudimentary design; unable to withstand the daily stresses of high temperatures and road vibrations, detachment and failure have become the norm—leading to repetitive repairs that drain both time and money. Lumistag has professionally engineered a compatible sensor solution, custom-tailored specifically for the entire Porsche 911 and 718 model ranges. Featuring comprehensively upgraded craftsmanship and a robust, solid internal structure, these sensors offer anti-aging and wear-resistance capabilities that far exceed those of the original factory parts. Easily eliminate all fault warnings and bid farewell to chassis-related anomalies once and for all. Offering exceptional value without unnecessary markups, these sensors feature a non-destructive, "plug-and-play" installation process that requires no modification to the vehicle's original wiring. Built for durability and longevity, they represent the premier choice for Porsche owners seeking high-quality maintenance and repair solutions. https://lumistag.com/
    • I didn't even know this existed.  It was the background music for a photo montage on YouTube. I know next to nothing her except that she was in "A View to a Kill," the last 007 film for Roger Moore. I did not know about her music. She's not really easy on the eyes with her severe look. But this particular cut is easy on the ears and good for interstate driving.
    • Yes, if I remember correctly, he did tell me it is an anniversary edition. Had a different one show up at the 1st cruise night last Saturday (attaching the pic for you).   * FYI: starting Saturday, 05.16.2026, Elgin IL's Steak'nShake offers attendees a 10% discount on orders placed with a host (not via kiosk).
