    Yes it was. That's probably a 2019 or a 2020. Im driving home a 2020 from Buffalo now with only a 120k on it and it's not even broken in. Seriously these things don't really break in till they get about 250 - 300k on them.

    BTW; almost all of the guys I work with prefer the Volvos as well!
    Yeah these things don't even rev to 2500. 2000 rpm is just about max!

    Only other guess is maybe the others had something drastic come up, but regardless it is poor especially where it's posted.

    Think he's the type to play favourites or just maybe learning still?

    Morning all!

    Of course, 1400RPM is still halfway to redline, lol. That's where the modern automatics come in super handy, too, though. 8 or 10 speeds lets you keep it in the power band constantly regardless of speed.

    Hard to say. He's got a management background, and scheduling employee's vacation times is 'management 101'
    The two people that were slotted to leave late yesterday and be out today are former employees from his old job, so it's possible. I'm didn't even bring that possibility up in my email to HR, though. I want them to be sure to know that it was poorly managed from an objective viewpoint, not just because I'm not one of the 'chosen ones'

    Chicken bombs! Milk and raw chicken in a mason jar, leave it somewhere to be found. Most people will do the same thing when they find it - open it and find out what it is :rofl: OR you can chuck it like a Molotov cocktail.

    Glad you got it! Those guys are some good ones at that shop, I'm there at least once a week for random crap!

    I was impressed with that blower when my cousin used it last weekend, hopefully you like it as well! :fingerscrossed:


    He told me he busted 5 shear pins the first day because he was just ramming it into ice mounds to see what it could do :rofl::anonymous: It survived and continues to kick ass!:thumbsup:

    Well we've already established that the reason I'm displeased with him is because of my own selfish interests....
    So no.

    This time of year it'd be salted and preserved forever in no time flat, though.
