I'm trying to help my brother-in-law find a Volvo. My problem is that I don't know much about Ford-era Volvos and most forums seem to lack any objectivity. One cunt will say the V40 is a shitbox and another will say it's the best car ever. I can't get him to consider a 900 model or an 850, so does anyone have knowledge to spare? I've heard the S- and V70's are okay. Any truth to that?

I just got my driver's license but when I was studying I used a diesel car, just stepping on the clutch then gas was enough to get the car moving on a ramp, but now my old Yaris runs in gasoline so I have to use the handbrake, but it feels so clunky and bad. My friend was driving behind me and I almost crashed with him because the car started falling. I barely got out of the situation but it was really embarrassing and dangerous
Can anyone give me a few tips on how to not fuck it up? I'm scared of going to places where I have to stop on ramps.

Good day all. I am looking to buy a chainsaw for some land we are going to be cleaning up. I have never used a saw myself but my intention is to purchase one for the business and hire an experienced feller. I know I can ask the guy with experience what would be a good sized but I know the man is going to say I need something the size of an MS720 which is a hell of a lot of saw and pretty pricey in my country. Also the "professionals" in this country will amaze you with how little they know.

It is going to be primarily 40-50ft coconut trees and a lot of sea almond. Sea almond is pretty soft but older coconut trees can be a bitch to hack through even with a sharp cutlass and a skilled user. It's all open field/jungle so we can fell everything from the ground. I am thinking of getting a second hand pole pruner to supplement the saw for any trees that are to stay up but need cleaning.

I have been hearing good things about the MS440, which is available here and is Germany built, but the Brazilian built 381 has been catching my eye in size and prize.

Should I got with the 381 or grab the 440? The 440 won't break the bank but the difference in price affords oil and fuel for half the saw's job.

Also I can't go with Husqvarna as it doesn't exist here.

What are your favorite driving shoes?

I nominate the Saucony Jazz Low:
>Lightweight
>Comfy
>Super low ankle clearance
>Squared-off heel
>Flat sole
>One of the ugliest sneakers ever made, with no good colorways. Guaranteed no one else will have them and you can be a special snowflake.

I own a 1990 Civic LX, I've owned an EF in the past, and both are/were automatic. That said, I know how the engine and transmission should be acting.
Simply put, THIS BITCH IS SLOW, like, way slower than it should be. I've clocked 0-40 at full throttle at a time of roughly 18 seconds. The transmission is shifting, and while it's not the smoothest thing in the world, I wouldn't describe it as being distressingly rough, it seems nominal.
This has been an issue since purchase, although it has DEFINITELY improved after replacing several things. Here's what I've done:

-Replaced the ancient nasty fuel filter.

-Replaced the Spark Plugs (this made the biggest difference overall)

-checked the gas tank for rust/bad fuel, drained and refilled (all good)

-hollowed catalytic converter because it was already failing (made a minor difference, stopped the car from producing a violent shake at 5k rpm and hesitating to pass that point).

-replaced all fluids and the oil filter

-replaced O2 Sensor

-reset ECU.

The car does need to have its valve cover/spark plug chamber gaskets replaced, not super badly, but definitely soon, other than that I'm seriously up a wall over this. Anyone have any ideas? It's not throwing me a check engine light or anything BTW.

Is it still possible to buy a truly bad new car? One that's indisputably uncompetitive in its class?

Seems these days excellence is the price of admission into the market.
