    Meet My New Winter "Tank"

    Well I needed another car to "Haul" things for work, along with being useful in are brutal east coast winter storms. I settled for an suv, I REALLY wanted an range rover, but with my recent purchase of my bmw that was out the budget. So I ended up going for an 08 XC90 Volvo V8 with Warranty. Its one female owner car, fully loaded for 08 which I purchased priv from here, and got an great deal! So far I love it, its more comfortable then my 550 and very user friendly. Only drawback is for being an V8, Its a pig! But I guess weighing close to 4,800lbs you cant ask for much performance. As Far as mods, (Hid's, Tint & Those Metal Ram looking things for the front.

    After I hooked up my local Audi Detailer with some free boo'z for an detail.

    haha not just yet, but prob at the end of the year, the 09's-10's CLS63 came down with the new model, and i think i might jump into one of those.

    I like those. I drove an 06 on a return trip from picking up another vehicle, and I really liked the ride and everything. Nice pickup!

    don't sell or part it out. I'm more then sure when everything is said and done, you'll regret it.
