Anonymous Coward User ID: 68797102 United States 07/05/2017 02:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I recently bought a 2014 Volvo S60 Polestar....it is the last of the in-line V6's (and fucking fast as hell!)....which is exactly why I bought it. All their new cars are 4 cylinders and they are okay but I felt like I was driving a car with a turbo charged lawnmower engine in it and there is no way on earth I will ever buy one. I'm sure as hell not driving an electric car, so this news sorta hurts because I really like this car and Vovlo's. I guess this will be the last Volvo I will ever own because again, there's no fucking way I'm ever buying a 4 cylinder car or an electric car that isn't a Tesla. Sorry Volvo but you lose.....my business. |

I'm working on a B230FT on a 940 today. I know that car and engine so well that I can't get rid of it, though parts are drying up. Volvo is owned by the Chinese now, not the same cars or company that used to be. |

User ID: 68568662 United States 07/05/2017 04:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For Volvo the internal combustion engine has run its course. Quoting: TheToolMan In the face of competition from upstarts like Tesla Inc., which begins production this week of its new mass-market Model 3 electric battery-powered family car, the Chinese-owned automotive group on Wednesday said all new Volvo models from 2019 would be either fully electric or a hybrid. Volvo is the first major auto maker to abandon the technology that has powered the industry for more than a century. Hakan Samuelsson, president and chief executive of Volvo Cars, said in a statement that the move “marks the end of the solely combustion engine-powered car,” reiterating his target of selling one million electric cars and hybrids by 2025. “When we said it, we meant it. This is how we are going to do it.” Volvo also said it would launch five new electric and hybrid vehicles between 2019 and 2021. Two of the new models would be built by Polestar, the performance-car unit that Volvo is spinning off as a “separately branded electrified global high performance car company.” Volvo Cars would build the other three models. No further details were available.

Vicious Deplorable dollop
You ain't seen nothing yet! User ID: 75169458 United States 07/05/2017 04:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In the big picture they are of course very wrong. Urban commuters using electric motors will be fine, but rural, agriculture, transport, and highway shipping will still be using the internal combustion engine for centuries to come. Kamala Harris is not a Natural Born Citizen. She's illegally running. Used by the Founders... Book I of The Law of Nations, Chapter XIX, § 212 (Joseph Chitty numbering) – “Citizens and natives” reads: 'The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights.' 1758 Emerich de Vattel Oh' What the Hell, do I look like I want to die in some nursing home one day... America must have 4 new Constitutional Amendments... 1. Drug Tests and Mental Evaluations on all politicians and judges randomly five times per year. 2. Term Limits for Federal politicians and judges. 3. Mental and health standards for Supreme Court Justices and retirement age set. 4. A 'Star Chamber' of elected Natural Born Citizens (no attorney's) to ivestigate, try, and prosecute the politicians and government employee's as they see fit. Mandatory death penalty by public hanging is the merciful sentence for pedos and their associates. Democrats are a WMD, literally. Let Justice Be Done Though The Heavens Fall. |
