Oh--cheer me up!! My poor old pal, my '96 Volvo, just got diagnosed with $3000+ in engine repairs. It may be time to part ways. Why is it so hard to say goodbye?
Lisa PollinoOh no!!!! Everytime I see one of these cars on the road I think of you!
Teresa JenningsWe call them she, they protect us, they give us freedom to go places, they become apart of our family. When I sell my cars, never trade them in, I try to make sure they go to a good home!
Greg McClureOw...now you'll have to listen to those crazy Car Guys on NPR!
Karen DenzIt was sad when we sold our 17 year old Jeep. I loved that car. We just sold it about 3 months ago.
Jack TossmanSunny BEACHES Jona! i got one just like it! how many miles? (dang, yer's is CLEAN!
Ross MehanThis is the toughest call--kinda like shaking the dice--do I risk the investment of a repair that may or may not last or go with the huge expense of a new car that's reliable?
Joseph MckinneyVarian's in emeryville should have a good salvage engine at a reasonable price.
Ralph HastyVolvo's originally weren't meant to be traded....EVER! You bought one and drove it the rest of your life. You buy a new car....any new car....now....and just driving off the lot costs you 3 grand. The outside of your V looks great....if the inside still makes you feel warm and fuzzy, keep it and fix it? But shop around among reputable mechanics. Volvo dealers are notoriously expensive for repairs.
Jona Denz-HamiltonRalph Hasty: I've been driving it since it was 4-years old (NEW in my book!) I wouldn't mind a "new" 2008 in my driveway though!
