Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

I don't get coal-bin interiors generally, but particularly for Volvos, when the blonde interiors are gorgeous. We went looking for an S60 Recharge last weekend, and were told they wouldn't get any more with blonde interiors _this year_. Black leather is way, way too hot in the summer and doesn't even look that nice.

Almost the same story with Audis: 8 A5 Sportbacks, 6 black interiors.

  Just a hunch but years back everything about Volvo was focused toward the local expected climate so this mentality may not have changed. In Sweden/Northern Europe black leather may be more popular and leather being too hot in the summer isn't an real issue there.

39k for a 3 year old T5 with disclosed "cosmetic damage"? As a new'23 V60 B5 AWD Hybrid starts at 50k, 11k in depreciation is nowhere near reasonable. That's a hard pass for me.

SCE to AUX Here's a crazy thought - what if China decides to fully underwrite the 102.5% tariff?
3-On-The-Tree They are hard to get in and out of. I also like the fact that they are still easy to work on with the old school push rod V8. My son’s 2016 Mustang GT exhaust came loose up in Tuscon so I put a harbor freight floor jack, two jack stands, tool box and two 2x4 in the back of the vette. So agreed it has decent room in the back for a sports car.
Kjhkjlhkjhkljh kljhjkhjklhkjh so what?? .. 7.5 billion is not even in the same hemisphere as the utterly stupid waste of money on semiconductor fabs to the tune of more than 100 billion for FABS that CANNOT COMPETE in a global economy and CANNOT MAKE THE US Independent from China or RUSSIA. we REQUIRE China for cpu grade silicon and RUSSIA/Ukraine for manufacturing NEON gas for cpus and gpus and other silicon based processors for cars, tvs, phones, cable boxes ETC... so even if we spend trillion $ .. we STILL have to ask china permission to buy the cpu grade silicon needed and then buy neon gas to process the wafers.. but we keep tossing intel/Taiwan tens of billions at a time like a bunch of idiots.Google > "mining-and-refining-pure-silicon-and-the-incredible-effort-it-takes-to-get-there" Google > "silicon production by country statista" Google > "low-on-gas-ukraine-invasion-chokes-supply-of-neon-needed-for-chipmaking"
