I can see that happening in somewhere like San Jose. There was actually a public charging infrastructure being formed there and I think PG&E was somewhat supportive of the idea, like Southern California Edison was where I’m from. And I’m sure everyone was tired of getting no better than 15 or so around town in their… Read more

Yes, that’s it next to the left arrow.

Congrats. And you even got one in the only remotely interesting color it's offered in. Read more

Stuff like the 503 and 507 may have failed initially, but they're revered designs today. Volvo pulling the plug on this car and now publicly sharing the way it did that is interesting. I really can't think of many other automakers who do this Read more

For all we know the Sport was mechanically fine. I gather it just didn't feel like it was going to last for a billion years like those other old Volvos. Read more

I think it works, for now. Wait until it gets overblown like the Union Jack Mini sticks on everything. The flag in the Volvo is unexpected, but tasteful. Now, orange seatbelts had better be an option. Read more

Don't think I've ever seen a wagon rental in the US. Most memorable was a guy returning a Saab 9-5 V6 to Enterprise saying it was tthe best car he'd ever had. This was 2001 Read more

Oh no, you got me. Read more

This still looks good today. Too bad they're all in terrible shape. Read more

Wow, that's a big rental lottery win Read more

I would love to meet a Sterling fanboy. You know where to find me! Read more

Thanks for pointing this out. Amended. Read more

But, but... yeah that kinda explains it. Read more

Funny, now it looks like there's camo on it Read more
