Frustration - Somebody please remind me why I drive a 240 200


Hi Sean

If I may... I would like to share my experience with you.

Last year around this time, the weather was hot and humid just like today. The traffic was very heavy. It was a lot more like parking lot. There was a silver 740 sedan parked on the side of highway. Of course, I had to pull over. A man got out of his car and greeted me with smile. His upper hose was blown and lost most of his coolant fluid. He was waiting for his friend to come back with coolant. I was stuned when he told me...

"I love this car, it's 26 years old and had since my baby girl was born. I brought her from hospital with this car. She's a Doctor now. My friends tell me get rid of this car. I love this car, I am going to keep it"

I felt his love for his Volvo and his daughter. From that day on, I carry a bottle of coolant in my brick, hope to run into him someday.
