For the last 2 years, this white snail is my DD, not sure if i'm hating or loving it.... it's just there.
1.6 4 cylinder with whopping 95 Pony's. or better called donkeys?
It's the back then most cheap European spec Volvo S40 Basic model. It's cheap in use, got nothing other then power windows, power mirrors and also heated.
That's it. NO AC, NO Power windows in the back, no armrest, even got not the power door locks... all the four doors i have to unlock/lock manually......
Cheap on gas with the 1.6? nope......

Stuck in germany with this (sorry) white trash

1997 Volvo S.40 1.6i 16v Basic

When the Jeeps aren't being driven, this gets the miles. It's our primary long distance car. It also has more cargo space than the Jeeps. It's better in urban snow too if I'm honest.


05 Outback with a factory 3.0 flat six and rear limited slip. 15 percent stiffer srings all around, adjustable rear lateral links, KYB struts, 3/16 aluminum skid plate front, rear diff skid. 195k miles and still pulls HARD.

I adore this car.

this is still my dd. i’ve put about 120k miles on it since then. kept the house, bought some other junk. i know you all were on the edge of your seats wondering what i’m doing over here.

A bone stock 2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT. has 165k on it, and by far, the best and most reliable vehicle I have ever had. Typical GM, they make something awesome and discontinue it. typical.

This is my daily driver. 2018 RAM 2500 4x4 with the 6.4 Hemi. Yeah, the gas mileage sucks. Only getting around 13mpg if I keep my foot out of it. My wife's daily is a 2019 Jeep Cherokee KL Trailhawk with the 3.2v6. The XJ is to be a playmate for our 2008 Jeep Wrangler JK 2dr. It has the 3.8 minivan motor and automatic transmission.


2008 JK. Photo from last summer. Also my wife's 2015 KL Trailhawk, it's now been traded off.
