I'm putting my feelers out there. Located in Antlers (se) Oklahoma. Willing to drive as far as Salina, KC, Springfield MO, Memphis Jackson MS, Alexandria LA, Houston, San Antonio, Amarillo. I will NOT drive to Colorado.
No V6. Do NOT ask if I want a V8 conversion. I want a pure Volvo.
89+ 745, 765 manual
1991+ 945 gle, turbo, se (manual?)

Good luck with finding your new car! I had a 89 760 Turbo auto and in the UK a 945 2.0 HPT turbo manual. It was one of my favorite Volvos over the last 45+ years of Volvos. 945 was a nicer car to drive than the 760 I have to say.

Too far away, but I do see 780's come up for sale once in a while but mostly over in the Vancouver area of Canada.

Do the U.S. 945 models come with manual?

If you know what the 2nd Amendment is and what Colorado politicians/laws are like, they are mostly anti-gun and prohibit anyone with 11+ round mags. I refuse to go to a state that doesn't honor my 2nd Amendment right. The one exception I made in March 2018 was when I went to see my family in Wisconsin. I won't at all consider transporting my guns unloaded because that contradicts the use of them and the offending states don't deserve my patronization. That's why when I found out the black 98 XC in classifieds was in Chicago, I ultimately declined to get the car. In Nov 2018, I wanted to take a more interesting and scenic route to Wisconsin than just straight NE through KS, MO, IA. So I planned my route around Illinois by going through AR, TN, IN, OH, MI. Sorry for the long story. I understand politics and other sensitive subjects are prohibited on MVS, so if anyone wants to talk about it (or any other hot topic like theology, social issues), text (the number I left here for 24hr) or PM me.
