Thats pretty cool. Is it acually real or is it like the Blair Witch Project where they said it was real.

They put an awful lot of work into it. I liked it a lot.

However, if you notice, all of the Volvo's are clean in it. I doubt they did this thing the day after it all happened, but I could be wrong.

Umm,

Watched the whole documentary; obviously a production of some sort, but the theme is SO, so true.

Having driven 3 "bricks" over 8 years for a (colletive) total of over 250k miles, I can say that there is something to these cars. And it started many decades ago.

The stainbuster's current brick of choice is a well driven, well maintained '90 745, 221k miles, 2nd owner sled. A/C that blows ice cubes!

In short, I will never quit driving this car. Or at least until it dies. She's not the primary vehicle of the house, but a dog a$$ faithful ride.

Other brick owners will wave a nod of kharma to you, brag about how many miles she's racked up, line up at the dealership 32 deep......

Does a small dealership like that in a small town suddenly have allocation for 32 sleds??? In ONE day???

Urban legend or not, this is one clever vehicle launch. Damn good looking car, too. Wish the diesel was coming stateside.

Any other Volvo owners here?

Check out www.brickboard.com

Regards,

Mike R
