Klaus,

Thank you for your kind words. Yes, I am very thankful my wife was not hurt. The crash proved why we drive Volvos.

You have done me a favor by telling me how much my car may be worth:$300 to $400. I had no idea. With regard to looking around for another S60, I don’t have the time, skill or resources to do so. The T5 is presently siting in the lot of the garage where I get all my Volvos serviced. They are not charging me storage fees, which I am thankful for. However, I can’t “wear out my welcome” and must get that car out of their lot as soon as possible. I appreciate their help, and don’t want to abuse it.

I just listed the car on Craigslist, so I guess the “crazies” will start contacting me. I’m also trying to get it listed on “Bargainnews.com” a local on line paper.

As I said above, I hope another T5 falls into my life. I was told by an iPd representative that Volvo made the T5 with a stick up to 2007, so maybe there is another one out there somewhere. Now that my wife has learned to slow down, if I do find another T5 maybe it will last longer.

Again thank you for your comments.

Hugh
