They've got Volvo's in that state like we've got Jeeps out here.
Try to learn life's bad lessons vicariously through others.

I wanted to shoot the grille so badly but traffic started moving. From what I remember the grille is the best way to date them.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
