I have two Volvo cars. Excited to join this Forum.

The first is an '01 V-70 XC that has been coined "The Silver Bullet," by my Grandpa Gary. He's the reason behind my curiosity/love for Volvo cars in the first place.

My Grandpa has also handed down to me; a Beige 1984 244 manual trans w/overdrive DL. It's in better than decent shape, but needed a lot of TLC to get it there. It's on the precipice of road-worthiness. Very exciting. It too has a nickname "Pokey."

This being the name my Grandma Trish jokingly, yet affectionately gave my Grandpa many years ago. He moves quite slow, and always has. Pokey has a B230F sans "T," so I deemed the moniker to fit accordingly.

Hey, it's fun to drive slow cars fast, right? You stay outta trouble that way....
