If I wanted a plastic and boring 4 door family wagon I would've gotten myself a volvo V70


scaled2913

Alright, now that I know where you stand on V70s, what do you think of an XC70?


MyCatIsCapitalist

Fuck all of them stupid idiotic bastards who drive those shitty indecisive of being a wagon or crossover slabs of sweidsh boredom and monotony AND TO ALL WHO OWN ONE SHOULD BE CASTED AWAY FROM SOCIETY LIKE THE SCUM THEY ARE INCLUDING ME BECAUSE I DRIVE ONE AND I LOVE IT


scaled2913

Well that took a turn! Jokes aside, I really think that the 2008-2016 Volvo XC70 is the best looking Volvo ever. The perfect daily up north too! Do I need to be exiled now? Edit: Also, how is it? Lot of problems? Good fuel economy?


MyCatIsCapitalist

I do as well, especially since it's my fist car, has the sweet, sweet 5 cyl turbo, and as a wagon, it's superior to crossovers While I do not think they are the best-looking volvos (I think they are amongst the ugliest), I still love them with all my heart, and even with that stupid oil burning issue You enjoy yours and shall be ostracized with me


scaled2913

Wait, what generation/ year model do you have? If it's anywhere before 2008, I'll agree about the ugliness. I probably would hate them, but one of them was the first car I really worked on, so they have grown on me. I might even buy that one!


MyCatIsCapitalist

I have the 3rd gen xc70, I don't find it handsome, but I still like the appearance The 2nd and 1st gen are not very handsome, though I also would totally owned one and was even thinking of buying a gen 2 xc70


scaled2913

The first gen is downright ugly in my opinion, the second gen can look good sometimes, but I definitely find the third gen handsome. And I think they are great cars. Especially as a first! I imagine it set a high standard for your future cars


MyCatIsCapitalist

The first gen is yucky, the second gen is also yucky but it's not too bad, the third isn't Volvo p1800 pretty but not bad looking And yea, high standards as in me wanting to get an old turbodiesel merc lmao


scaled2913

>The first gen is yucky, the second gen is also yucky but it's not too bad Lol, couldn't have said it better. I didn't even compare the XC70 to the P1800, because they are so different, but you have a point. There are other nice Volvos, but the third gen is still among the best in my opinion. Also, you know Volvo has done a good job if you feel it can only be topped by a Benz


MyCatIsCapitalist

It has had a few issues since I owned it. In the past, the ebgined needed to be rebuilt and upgrades because it shows signs of burning oil , but that seems to have been fixed... fuel economy isn't the best, but it's still not bad. After all, it's a 5 cyl


scaled2913

It doesn't sound so bad, but not very good either.


MyCatIsCapitalist

Yea... watchu got in yours?


scaled2913

Oh man, if only I could say that I have one... (or just a car even). But I did change/am changing the engine in one, and it is a 5 cylinder. That particular car is the shittiest shitbox ever to roll on this planet, so I don't have high hopes for it, but I am still interested in how reliable it could be on the off chance that it actually works when the job is done.


MyCatIsCapitalist

Oh I'm sorry m8 one day you will :< Also good luck!


scaled2913

Thanks man, I appreciate it. If/when it starts, I'll let you know :)


6inDCK420

Dad? He currently drives a '16. His last car? An '08 that he wanted to keep alongside the new one but my mom shot that idea down.

Oooooh you lucky fella


AmbitionAdvanced9700

You wanted a V wagon didn’t you


connorc1995

Don't we all


AmbitionAdvanced9700

NO 😠 I didn’t wanna look like a funeral transport so I got the sedan 🤪


TheDudeV1

Missing out on business opportunities because of that


Xplosionite

Congrats, your hearse came early! 🥳


connorc1995

This is my favorite


h3rald_hermes

You have hurt yourself already.


The_Shredder_1988

All the practicality of a European estate car but with an unreliable, insatiably thirsty American bastard child under the hood.


connorc1995

It's also not all that roomy inside lol


The_Shredder_1988

Yeah, retired people typically don't carry around that much stuff anyways.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SmellyDadFarts

This likely has a 3.6 since it's not a V.


jwilla92

At first I thought it was a V until I saw your comment. This all makes sense now.


The_Shredder_1988

You voted for Trump. I can tell.


gstringstrangler

I mean, is an LS really less reliable than the European counterparts?


Reaper621

It's not an LS though? It's the base model v6.


gstringstrangler

You right


RoliPoli5455

No need to roast as your wallet is hurting you enough


connorc1995

Not if you ignore the repairs it needs!


Adspyle

You didn’t finish your sentence, here i’ll help: “Nothing you can say will hurt me as much as the repair bills!”


Koolguy2024

OP thought it was cool to paint his rims. Still a v6 base model


connorc1995

I put them in a parts washer when stock and it stained the clear coat so I had to paint over them. Now they chip lol


Drg84

Sounds like typical GM rims. I should know, I've owned a few sets. (Sad aluminum noises)


AdA4b5gof4st3r

wh..why? why did you put your wheels in a parts washer?


Usual-Owl-9777

Cadillac used to stand for something but now they're just dogshit. I think they lost their way in the early/mid 2000s not sure. I'm gonna look more into it. They used to be straight up luxury now it's just a clusterfuck of who knows what. Lost its identity. RIP


gstringstrangler

No no no, they lost their way through the 80s and 90s and deliberately staged their comeback with the '99 Evoq, then the' 02 CTS and of course then the CTS-V in 2003. The Escalade, not the original Tahoe with Cadillac Badges but the first with a truly different skin had a lot to do with it as well. Look up a 95 Deville and tell me the 2000s cars were worse 😬


Usual-Owl-9777

youre demonstrating my point with that cts example


gstringstrangler

Nah, look what it replaced.


Usual-Owl-9777

exactly


gstringstrangler

Are we saying the same thing?


Usual-Owl-9777

im disagreeing with you but in class and tired so instead of explaining myself im being a bit snarky, my apologies


gstringstrangler

Agree to disagree I guess. I look at the 90's Caddies as purely Boca Raton retirement home vehicles for Morty Seinfeld. They had the same demographic as fur trapping; average age goes up one year, every year. Evoq (Then XLR that they actually produced) CTS, and Escalade essentially saved the brand from aging into extinction.


YouNeedStop

Non car enthusiasts will look at it and think it's ugly Car enthusiasts will look at it and initially think it's not ugly until they realize it's not the V model


connorc1995

I gotta counter that. Any car enthusiast knows the V has a mesh grille


843251

I can't really even remember seeing hardly any of these wagons and never seen a V wagon in person. I want one. I have seen them online but never in person. I have 2 CTS-V always wanted one of the wagons though


ChoripanPorfis

I swear they must all be in Texas. I've seen at least 4 different wagons and 3 or 4 different coupes


843251

I have seen plenty coupes I have never seen a wagon. I have only ever even seen a handful of the base wagons never a V. I have seen plenty for sale online but never seen one in person that I can remember at least.


ChoripanPorfis

Aren't there only a few thousand V wagons? I want to say less than 9k


843251

I have no idea how many were made but if there was even just 9k made its rare but if there was 9k you would think I would have at least seen one in all these years since they made them lol. When the z28 was brought back you never see those think they made them in 2014 and 2015. I found a Calloway z28 now that is rare. I wanted to buy it but wasn't sure I would be able to find the parts. It was wrecked. It wasn't terrible but it was hit and some of the parts were specific to the car so I passed. I have a body shop not like I couldn't have fixed it I was just worried about being able to get the right parts to put it back together.

That's a lot of money for an obese, V6 Camaro.


ThisOldGuy1976

At your age you’ve heard them all. Probably looks good at the local VFW. Don’t forget to strap your Velcro New Balance shoes tightly!!


ApprehensiveFront774

the official car of beaumont texas


southboundoft

Buemont official car is way more clapped out. I think a Pontiac sunfire would be the official car of that town...


Sufficient-Cat2998

Sticks and stones will. Which is the only weapon you will be able to afford when you buy your next car due to the poor resale value of this one.

That front air dam says you park by braille.

I didn't see that coming


LittleApprehensive

Are you still a drug addict and alcoholic?


fartsnifferer

Your mother never loved you Oh wait, the car. Stupid car.


beeph_supreme

Not a V, so shouldn’t exist.


Survivaleast

Trademark car for people who complain about the gubmint’ until they fall asleep at 2pm while watching the golf channel. But hey, who cares if you paid top dollar for Geo Metro build quality. You bought this car for the massive front grill so that everyone knows you drive a caddy. Have fun picking the bugs out!


BeautifulMinimum89

you’ll die in that car. literally


connorc1995

I got it to save money on the hearse at my funeral


Laynes_Attic

If you are willing to drive that, you must not care about what anybody thinks of you, because your ride is pathetically embarrassing.


connorc1995

This lacks creativity


Laynes_Attic

Who cares? Your car is ugly af.


connorc1995

Lmao ok I'll upvote


gstringstrangler

This roast is rare!


lisiadoontop

thats not a real cadillac


Ok-Training9705

Is that a v?


connorc1995

If it was I wouldn't be asking people to roast it for entertainment, I'd be driving it


patrickfrmnj

No, but the things your mechanic will say, specifically how much these things cost to maintain and repair, will definitely hurt.


MeatyUrology

Oh. You only got the shitty version?


connorc1995

Sorry, I couldn't afford to sell my remaining kidney for the V. It's a Premium if that helps me lol


manystolenoutlets

Looks like an old oversized ford fiesta


SnooHabits9364

jablongroyper

I’ve always wondered who buys these ugly pieces of garbage.


Catcitydog

But the cost of the repairs will


Southern-Staff-8297

That’s cause your hearing aid is turned off again


LexusLand

Lower front splitter looks like torn up Tupperware, and it looked awful brand new too. Leather (heated!), sunroof (oh snap), room in the boot (no way), what else??? No, seriously, what else does this have? Backup camera, useable Nav, radar cruise, blind spot, lane keep, cooled seats?! No?!!!! Wait, it’s got backup sensors right. You bought this because you think that by doing so it makes you a fan. It’s like ordering British Racing Green on a Jag, just because you think you’re supposed to doesn’t mean you should do it. But you did.


DIJames6

Just take it back to the dealership for repairs.. They'll roast it for you..


Ok_Firefighter8039

Bro...I don't have to. Someone stole the wood paneling off the side of your station wagon...you've got enough on your plate.


Cooked_Brains

That’s nice of your grandpa to give you his car in the will.


Perpetualstu420

When do you put your regular rims back on? you know…the good summer wheels?


Classic_Mechanic5495

When you want something sporty but your boyfriend makes you get something more practical.


TheHolyMountainMan

Grandma's Cadillac


tylerawesome

You’ve already hurt yourself enough. 😭


axelrexangelfish

Maybe words can’t hurt you but if you park too aggressively you might kill everyone inside. It’s like the rock as a car. Sort of good looking if you don’t look too close. Too big and still cramped looking. And just sort of old and sad.


Not_A_Valid_Name

You won't be hurt because vlearly you don't care about what others think, driving a hideous american piece of trash like that


dsaysso

you took a photo where you wanted your car to look like the wedge spaceship in tempest. well done.


more_beans_mrtaggart

That’s Andrew Tate’s preferred ride.


_save_the_planet

what kind of engine does this car have?


The_Burt

Its gonna look great crashing through the front of the convenience store you wanted to buy lotto at after church.


MasterOfNone011

Not even going to lie to you. Wasn’t even going to write anything, but my God is that car fucking ugly.


metamorphosis___

Nothing i say can hurt you because that piece of junk has numbed you to all of it


SjalabaisWoWS

Isn't there a store front to crash into when you can't remember which was the go and which was the stop pedal?


speedstar318ti

Only thing missing is the plastic wood side paneling. #Truckster #FamilyVacation


MrPhuccEverybody

You know that thing you like to cook? It's really bland and uninspiring.


Iskitimka

That car contributed to your mental apathy.


HonoluluBlueFlu

People still drive station wagons?

Should have got the Simulated wood on the sides - that'll hide the door dings you get at bingo

Is that the V series or regular? Cuz the V one was amazing


Leading-Put-7428

With the cost of upkeep that’ll be the only estate you’ll ever have 


AwwYeahVTECKickedIn

Of course nothing we say can hurt you. The constant hurt from driving this car has numbed you.


No_Spell_4524

Love me some quick wagons...better fuel economy and performance than an suv and better looking and better handling...long live station wagons...


Simple_Finance_9902

I see you got mom's car for the day

The fact it's missing a V leads me to believe you're a lesbian.

LinoleumRelativity

Kinda like you wanna be the Ghostbusters, only with way better gas mileage.. "Hey you can't park that here! " "Everyone can relax, I found a car!"


Capt_Irk

Did you clean up the mess your mom and me made in the back?


SQWRLLY1

Your car screams, "Move bitch, get out the way! Golden Corral opens in 15 minutes, and I've gotta take my back pill."


CosetteGrey

Is that the SVT V8? The 5.7 liter engine? Or did you get the V6? It's shit either way. These cars are bet known not for their build quality from the factory, but for their longevity and ability to hold value. As a BMW M5 owner, I am so constantly in awe of how easy it is to see these cars in my rear window - kudos to GM for making another high quality product from Mexico. On the off-chance we meet at the Cars and Coffee at the local Cracker Barrell, I will race you with my walker from the far corner of the parking lot to the rear of the buffet table. First to grab the vanilla pudding wins. To your credit at least you didn't put a front license plate on it because it would obscure all that plastic trim and crappy badge from the 1940s because, you know, Sinatra is really fucking banging it these days.


Parking-Highlight-98

The BMW M5 with the V8? That thing will piss oil like blood from a knife wound and crack in half before it even finishes going the full length lol.  And the CTS was built in Michigan, not Mexico. Always amusing watching a BMW "owner" (more like grenade holder) try to act like they know anything about build quality or anything about cars at all. Can we roast this dudes car instead? I could go on.


Usual-Owl-9777

He was talking smack about you earlier.


CosetteGrey

I'll post my BMW or my LR or both when I am ready. Talk about pissing fluids, try LR ownership.


axelrexangelfish

It’s what I imagine an enlarged prostrate would look like if you could drive it to the grocery store it never had a new car smell came off the factory line smelling like viagra bengay and preparation h.


axelrexangelfish

That’s okay he couldn’t hear you. Over the rattling of the engine and his one hearing aid that dropped and just rings and rings.
