My first car after graduation from college was a Volvo..station wagon. Years later, I asked my first landlord how come she gave me the apartment when a lot of people were being interviewed and she said “because you drove a Volvo”. The funny part was that the car was the last in a dealership that was being shut down due to bankruptcy. The bad part it still had a tape deck when I should have a CD/DVD player combo in it so having dates was a challenge..

Have had two Volvos. Built like tanks. Not so good mileage.

First was early 70s wagon. Later a 2006 XC90 SUV V8.
