    @FTGDWolverineEdition'09: Those things come with BLIS as well, thought their acronym stands for "Blast Liberals Into Smithereens". #volvos60

    The pedestrian-avoidance technology has been sourced from the proven excellent application in Red Army tanks. It is especially effective when the pedestrian is carrying shopping bags. #volvos60

    Too derivative. And how's the headroom in the back seat? Volvo's used to be roomy. Now what differentiates them? The car midgets prefer? #volvos60

    That beltline is sooo Chevy. I like the front end OK, but the rest of this looks like design by committee. #volvos60

    Will ingesting the interior plastics cause them to be metabolized into a chemical remarkably similar to GHB? That'd bring the sleepy back to Volvo. #volvos60

    In reply to 2010 Volvo S60 Can Detect, Automatically Avoid Pedestrians
    I dreamed that I could not engage a gear, that my machine was in a battle with unknown enemies, and joined with other more perfect machines. They were cared for by people who occupied the same spaces, but could not be seen at the same time. And though in the end the machines were turned off, they were saved for future generations.

    And Ray Bradbury said 'Let there be an endless cycle.'

    Upon reflection, I realized that the machines were engaging us as an enemy, with perfection and inevitability as their anthem, and they were embraced by many from the past, present and future. They are born in the futures of our imaginations, and simultaneously salvaged from our pasts, with only fragments of comprehension. #volvos60

    Good idea, wrong execution. It needs to automatically accelerate for maximum point scoring. #volvos60

    @FTGDWolverineEdition'09: I believe it comes with checkbox options of types of people you choose to avoid hitting:

    [ ] Hippies
    [ ] Vagrants
    [ ] Teenagers
    [ ] Hipsters
    [ ] Fixies
    [X] Old People
    [ ] Bankers
    [X] 300lbs+
    [ ] People talking on cell phones
