Default What else is in your Garage!

Out of Curiosity, what else do Volvo owners drive around that is parked in Your Garage. Besides my 97 850GLT, I have a 04 BUELL 1200 Lightning and I did have a O3 Harley Davidson VROD that I just sold.

A John Deere tractor. Other than that I got rid of any vehicle that is not a Volvo.

A garage would be nice haha. I also own a 1974 Chyrsler Newport, which has been converted to propane, and a 1983 Ford Crown Vic which has been converted to a derby car.

Thanks dude.
The 540i is nice but its ~12 years old, and cost too much to modify .

Thank God my dad loves cars!

I built a shed in the back yard for stuff like that including my tractor. My three car garage is for cars and my cars will be in there. Especially in the winter months. Why is it that mechanics very rarely keep their cars in their garages?

Well I have 2 houses of furniture thats why I don't really have my garage.
We still have boxes out there from when we moved in here 6 years ago. We bought all the furniture in the house.

Also my kids have way to many toys. I need to go through it all but trying to do it with the 3 year old home with me doesn't work very well.

36" TV, fridge, and a ton of tools. There hasn't been room to park in the garage since we moved in 4 years ago.

In the driveway:
2002 Volvo V70 T5
2006 Land Rover LR3
