Sounds about right. Check out my thread on my Jeep to see the fun I've had so far. We will likely be ditching it next year for a Subie Ascent (current plan, waiting for second model year) or a Range Rover Autobiography (if I win the lottery) so I'm pretty happy about that. Only FCA thing I plan on getting anytime soon is a Wrangler and only because it is so different from any other FCA product out there.
I actually saw a youtube video of a dude taking delivery of his brand new Rang Rover Autobiography, 150k new sticker, they were in the dealer lot getting ready to drive off when some interior switch (for something I can't remember) stopped working suddenly.....LOL. They are so bad they come broken from the factory! |

99.99% of the population don’t buy SUVs for off-roading... unless you can’t running over the curb in the grocery store parking lot as off roading. plus, you can still haul stuff in the trackhawk. And tow a trailer, if need be. Or anything else for that matter. It can pretty much do everything the V can. But definitely the Trackhawk is good for basically annihilating stoplight drag races since there's nothing you can drive that's so easy to go from 0-60/80mph or so and basically win against 99.9% of the cars out there. You'll have to compete with a Model X P100D or very top end cars like the 720S. Otherwise most cars will have trouble putting down power but with the heavy weight and AWD and the high HP it works to it's advantage. And with that said, you'll also need to be ok with massive fuel cost and the inconvenience of likely filling it up at least once a week (if you use regularly). Which I assume is not an issue if someone already has a mind set to buy a Trackhawk. |
LMAO, once a week...try every 3 days with normal commute in the V.

Caddy is 17.5MPG if you're cruising at 65...at 85 it's 15...
overall combined was between 12.5 and 13.5MPG. |
:what:
You're already used to the MPG, so pick up a G55 for the lady & have 2 S/C V8s :drag: |

What's the rating in smiles per gallon?

Maybe it's the heat or the Florida gas or maybe my foot has more lead in it than I thought but I have never ever netted more than 14.5 on a full tank in the V. Ever.
The smiles are definitely cool, but fleeting. J drove the V for 2 weeks before we got the Volvo and she was the one that saw firsthand what bad gas mileage it got. She's like, I literally have only gone to work 5 miles away for a few days and took the kids to school and it's down to a quarter tank again. I'm like yep...welcome to my world :tomato: |

J just post pics of yourself, that's what they really want.

Preferably in a white tshirt and short cutoff jeans, bent over, washing the V with lots of suds and the hose spraying everywhere... |
:rofl:
Zoolander style... |
PM for sexy pictures of OP :ninja:
|
:rofl:
I'm tempted to PM you to see what sort of creepy pics you took when I stayed at your house. |
Looks pretty sweet, especially with that saddle interior. Of course I'm a little biased and nostalgic, since I just replaced my old V70 with a RDX last week.
|
In a wicked turn of Freudian events...
Turns out "I" got a new car and love of my life got another nother new car instead. :tomato: |
Beautiful Volvo and family brotha! Congrats!
|
What the fuck is going on, J? Which cars do you have and which ones have you sold? FFS |
So what are we going to update the thread title to?!?!
Why don't you think of the important things before making these type of life-changing decisions. |

Rockstar doesn't watch...
he drives EVERYTHING. Okay, very confusing, I know. CTS-V Sold... Audi was almost sold but the dude backed out. Coming back from Suisse made me appreciate it even more though...so not pressed to sell. S2000-Fuck it I love it, weekend warrior Volvo-Daily Ody-J Daily Audi-Beater Yukon-Big Beater RS143-Biggest Beater |
i thought the RS143 was a new Audi model i didn't know about... i had to think about that for a second...
|
title fix :tomato:
|
J, you got problems. Mod the Ody though. They look bad as hell bagged on wheels. :ninja: |
Fool gets divorced buys like 7 cars in a year. |
ahem, and doesn't let his passion for cars ever get in the way of family time or hanging out.
Probably helps that I stopped drinking altogether too! Ody is getting roof rack/cross bars tomorrow along with some H11 HID I had from her old van for fogs... Amber LED DRL and 25MM rear spacers already on. The paint wasn't waxed much before we bought it but the maintenance was spot fuckin on and one owner on this thing...it is clean as hell. |
So now we start the timer and in 15 months, J should be buying another Vaggon.
