That's really a stupid joke that it's not even worth explaining. You must have a good knowledge of French and mainly to be drunk to find it funny!
About myself, I'm 25 years old and I'm still not sure how I ended up in Alberta. I'm a turbobrick fan because of my father, he got a new '84 244 when I was 3 years old, he changed it for a '89 240 and bought a used '85 245 as a second car (which lasted one winter) but the '89 240 had a huge amount of trouble, mainly because of the damn autotragic. So he upgraded to a new '91 745 turbo. Which is my current car. He was a real fan of the "brick period", he got a '98 S70 when I took over the 745, but I've never saw my father getting ride of a car so quickly!!!

The newest Volvo have nothing to do with the old ones and what we like in the old one, we can't find it in the new one. Anyway. Since I'm young, I've always been in a brick. Modern cars doesn't attract me and I really enjoy my 745. It's fun to drive even without driving hard, it's perfect to drive long runs, it's quite cheap to run and reliable, it's really useful (I won't be able to buy anything else than a real wagon!) and mainly, it's a rwd with a stick without these damn anti-idiot electronic devices (except the ABS, but I'll try to desactive it next winter) so it's a car that YOU drive and you actually learn to drive! It's a total blast during winter! I'm always out for a ride when I see that it's snowing! I'm totally addicted to this fun, 'specially since I moved here. Driving the deserted Maligne Lake Road or Icefield Parkway during winter always gives me an orgasm! (kinda...

)
You probably already know, while I'm addicted to driving, I'm not only clueless about mechanic, I just hate it. Just a oil change bothers me.

As my car is starting to get old and rusty, I'm always thinking anout getting a new car or a 740/940 that is in a better shape, but I always end up finding out that I still love my car a lot... I just wish I could give it a small youth cure but well...
