You had to bring that up. Just mean and spiteful. Yeah, I know.
It sickened me when Ford got their hands on a brand that I love. Volvo has never been known for performance cars but they make a rock solid dependable car that's very cheap in total cost of ownership.
It took a good deal of denial, rationalizing, and pretending for me to be able to plunk down cash for a car whose profits were headed back to Dearborn. But at least thru the 06 models, it looks like Ford hasn't contaminated the Volvo product too badly.
Life is compromise!
Hopefully, Volvo is the next brand that the troubled Ford guys put on the auction block. I'm thinking Chinese ownership. And I think I'll be done with Volvo at that point.
