2006 Honda Civic - What an adventure!

This Civic belonged to a friend of a friend. He lives in Philadelphia, so when I found a buyer I flew down to Philly and drove it back. It cost me about $25.00 to drive all the way from Philly (and that's with gas at $3.40/gallon) and the car drives great on the highway. This was the first time I had actually driven a newer Civic like this. They are great little cars, and it's no wonder you see them dotted all over the place

Here is an amazing car that truly found me! I got lucky with this one because it was only in New England for one Winter, so there is NO RUST at all on it. A preserved specimen to be sure, and a one-of-a-kind with special features that used to be able to be "custom ordered" direct from the factory. Even a dealer installed power sunroof (not working, but at least it's sealed shut). I'm going to enjoy driving this one.

Always a pleasure getting together with old friends and new around our mutual love of SAAB. A few inches of snow only made things even more fun!

Volvo V70 Cross Country - A true New England tank!

I have never driven a Volvo V70 Cross Country wagon until now. I must say, this vehicle is one of the most comfortable, solid vehicles I have ever driven. It feels like a tank on the road, very safe and secure. Also has a great radio and decent gas mileage. Transmission seems like a weakness, and the value is low considering the $40K plus price tag when new.
