Default Hi from Timmins, Ontario Canada (cold and snow)



Yup from up here in South Porcupine, Ontario, Canada...

You you cant make stuff like that up...

We get 6-8 months of winter, and a few good months of summer.

I love VW, Toyota and Volvo... blame my folks for owning VW and Volvo in my youth.
I am not a mechanic but can do pretty good repair work.


I joined the forum for added information on V70 and V70XC line in hopes to make a valued and educated decision on a family wagon. I currently have a mess of vehicles, Intrepid, Jeep, (2) VW Golf. I am looking at reducing my fleet to 2 vehicles to service the needs of our small family of 4.
Volvo having served my dad well for years I will also trust it with my family in hopes it will also give me a years of service and one of the safest vehicles to drive in, for the kids.

See you in the threads... thanks for the help in advance.


Chris

Welcome to the forum.

I partially understand what you mean about the winter. I've lived in Vermont for 5.5 years and winter there is really harsh too and lasts a long time.

Be sure to post questions either in the vehicle-specific forum or General Volvo Chat. Also don't forget to follow scheduled maintenance.

Best of luck to you,


JPN

Welcome. Hop on over to the XC 70 and V70 forums and read up on your possible purchase.
