    There's a twin to that Volvo about 30 miles from me...in Fl. It "could" be an interesting alternative to a truck/SUV.

    Not 88k miles but rather 200k but here is a turbo brick with a stick in Detroit. Just to tempt you Evan...

    Another but no turbo and this one nearly 300k

    Trust me, before I posted the Chicago one with 88k I thought about grabbing it for myself

    When compared to a 4 cyl S10 or Ranger with a cap on the back, the Volvo will have about the same usable space, tow about the same, get similar mpg and have similar speed.

    I'm going to be in Chicago next weekend...

    Unfortunately I can barely afford snow tires for my brick, much less another more awesome brick.

    Staying near O'Hare. I'll be downtown all Saturday, not sure what we are going to do yet but I am going up with a few friends for a weekend vacation. If you see a turbo brick with prancing moose stickers that is me.
