Everyone who knows me couldn't help but comment on the
fact that I fist sold both my Porsches and then bought a Volvo.
All I can say in response is, at least it's not a minivan.
That said it's really a nice car and will easily hold my mountain bike
or snowboard AND the wife and two kids, at the same time. I would never
have considered a Volvo station wagon if I didn't get one as a
rental
car a couple years ago where I was very pleasantly surprised by
just how much stuff you can cram in the back, plus how well it drove and
handled. Not only is this my first station wagon but my first car
with all wheel drive and a turbo. Not my first Swedish car however.

After a long dry spell I finally picked up
another Porsche. This time with a back seat so I can still take the
kids with me.
Despite the troubles in the auto industry John and I continued
our annual tradition and
attended the First Look for Charity
for the 2009 Chicago Auto show.
