And that's not the end of it, not by a long shot.

The upside of this particular scandal is that my wife has a friend who used to be all snotty about her fucking VW TDI as if she was saving the world with it and we were a bunch of troglodytes for driving a Volvo which, as it turns out, runs far cleaner than a TDI.

Except it's a Volvo and no self respecting man is proud of owning a Volvo.

I'll take the TDI any day!

It's a Volvo S80 and I've had it up to +130mph and Road & Track says with the upgraded ECM I installed it can make 175.

Plus it looks pretty spiffy.

Meanwhile General Motors was fined chump change for their scandal that cost 13 innocent lives.

Sorry Bart, it's still a Volvo.

Hahahaha!!!

Well, the other car in the garage is a 1965 Ford Galaxie with a 490 HiPo, Hooker headers, a 750 dual feed vacuum secondary Holley sitting on an Edelbrock intake with the high rise that *just* fits under the stock hood, the ignition is a Mallory Unilite with a 100,000 volt Blaster coil, all backed up by a C6 transmission with the stock overdrive.

It passes everything but a gas station!

VW should be selling that tailpipe app.

I'm sure your fellow mall-walkers are super impressed.
