Lol! Great minds think alike! Makes me want to dig up my old sendup of the vaunted Swedish Sled.

I especially liked:

Here you can see that I've brought the wagon up to 75 mph, FAR in excess of any Volvo that I've seen operated by a civilian. Was there more left in it? Sure, lots more.

Driving impressions:
This particular wagon came equipped with full leather seats, super swanky! The seating postition was comfortable and provided a clear view of the road on all sides. I couldn't say for sure, but I don't think that my driving skills or IQ level dropped dramatically when I was behind the wheel.

The conclusion? I can't blame the Volvo for bad driving based solely on its being a Volvo. I was able to drive this wagon in safe and responsible fashion without inconveniencing other motorists. I'm forced to place the blame where it belongs, on the operators. As with all generalizations, there will always be exceptions.
