Behold our new 12 years old family car:
NON-TURBO
NON-AWD
AUTOMATIC
Volvo V70

On the plus side it's good to be back in what feels like a proper German car, complete with not-quite-everything-working dash lights, peeling A-pillar fabric, miserable headlights, no line-in or bluetooth, and wiper blades I cannot get at Advance Auto. BUT, it's the last wagon you can get in the states with a 3rd row (not including Mazda 5 mini-minivan)! Transmission doesn't suck, the 5cyl makes pleasant noises, interior is really nice, and PO put the R wheels on it with 235 tires and tossed the turning radius out the window.
I like it enough that I won't mind spending money on it to keep it on the road.
