Lol! I could not only picture the whole scene unfolding before me, I have actually been living a similar Volvo, never say never type of life with my Volvo SUV. Granted, mine is so much younger that the one you described, as it is a 2005, but they just don't make Volvos like they used to. Now, we get to deal with all that computerized crap that always gets in the way, and sets all kinds of engine lights, warning signals and other miscellaneous Ka-ching moments. However, I am bound and determined to keep the old gal on the road -- no matter how many people tell me to let her go! Observation: "... affectionately referred to Swedish Meatballs’ [Meatball's] aesthetic feature: the spoiler." I believe you are talking about one Volvo, being called the Swedish Meatball -- singular. I not only feel your love, devotion and pain -- I thoroughly enjoyed the humor of life with an old Volvo. So much so, I have highlighted it in tomorrow's Comedy Newsletter. Until next time--write on! Regards, WebWitch My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
