Seriously, thanks for your contribution.
I always thought a "trader" was someone who buys and sells things LOL

Somehow I think Justin will be just as involved with the forum as he was in the past. It's in his blood now, and besides those Cruze's are bound to be vice free for the first 10 years.
He is a trader he sold his soul to non-Volvo car !~ :)

I keep forgetting the Cruze is available with a manual right now. Now if only they would bring over a wagon version. :(

Sure you will!

Firstly,congratulations about your new car,it looks perfect.!

But,no matter how pretty the new car is and no matter how "NEW" it is....i think,there will always be VOLVO in your heart. :wink:

Maybe you will not have a time to post or to help out with our problems like you did before....but it will not pass a single day that you will not,at least,surf a little around forum.

Enjoy & take care! :wink:

Justin,

Well, welcome to my neck of the woods. If I help you move in, would you help with a PCV job? ;)

I had a Cruze as my rental car last time I was in Canada!! It was utterly hateful. That said, 90% of the reason it was utterly hateful was its woeful autotragic gearbox; and you don't have one! :lol: Good job!
