It's a pre-2000 Volvo, so it'll last a very, very long time, and highway miles are easier on the car than city driving. 3. I like highway driving.

The term Daily Driver makes me very angry. Its a loving car. A CAR. Sometimes I think America is more at odds with the Western World than Russia is. Also "stick shift?" IT'S A MANUAL GEARBOX!!!

I, in fact, own two; the other one is a 1988 Volvo 240 which was my first car and has broken down the same amount of times as my current 1998 V70R (none). atomicthumbs fucked around with this message at 09:55 on Jul 10, 2016 |

atomicthumbs posted:still nobody can answer the question of what an autopilot tesla does in reaction to a megawatt of pulsed rf at 2.4ghz aimed at the front radar in all fairness thats an example similar to a situation of someone throwing rocks at cars from an overpass. when someone wants to go out of their way to mess with traffic, they generally succeed, even if its keying someones door.

Not sure it's about affluence...more about space and cheapness of fuel....oh and also no road tax at all. I pay $712 dollars just have my car on the road...doesn't matter if I actually drive it or not.

abigserve posted:Fuckin lol Are you retarded? Why would I drive an E55 AMG to Vegas when I could just rent a nice car instead and not have the beast suck down all my gas? $75/day pff you must be retarded. Costs like half that for a decent car with way better mileage. obv my car CAN get to Vegas, but I can also just spend $100 and have a decent rental for the weekend. Mumpy Puffinz posted:all those pictures are from human drivers? At least two of those are for sure human error, I can remember the specific news story. One is in dispute I guess because the wife claims she definitely didn't push the wrong pedal and the autopilot definitely just came on and crashed her car even though none of the sensor/computer data corroborates that (ie she hit the wrong pedal and is trying to sue Tesla about it).
