This auction is for a 2003 Volvo S80 T6. It is a 6 cyl, twin turbo with an automatic transmission that also has the option to shift gears manually. I have owned 4 of these and the motors have alway run great well over the 200K mile mark. The transmissions are usually a little less flawless but they seem to keep going and going. One example was my 2000 - the transmission started shifting rough once in a while around 70K miles and it finally went out on that car at 227K miles. This car is in real nice shape inside and out for a ten year old car. The pictures show the condition well. I got it for my son and he's used it for the past few months and drives it back and forth to a local job as well as a local college. We put new floor mats, center console cover and battery in when we got it and went over the car real well. It has been very reliable. The car does have some minor issues but nothing I think is major.
Every now and then it runs rough for 20 or 30 seconds when you first start it and that has set the check engine light off twice. The local autozone reset the light and it showed an oxygen sensor code. My experience with these cars tells me it's likely one of the coils starting to get weak.
It also occasionally can't decide if it wants to shift into 4th or stay in 3rd gear and my son just uses the shifter to shift it into 4th. ZThis has happened about 4 times over the past three months.
The front tires look good but the back tires have some dry rot cracks on them. We've never had to put air in them but I would recommend replacing them. They also have a VERY aggressive tread to them and are noisy when you're driving.
There is only one key to the car and no remotes. My son decided he wanted an old Honda Civic instead of the S80 so this car has to go. This is a no-reserve auction so bid to win and ask all questions prior to bidding. I'll be away from Thursday through Sunday and will answer questions if I can get near a computer. Thanks for looking.

Big rig gets blown over on Wyoming freeway, flattens police cruiser
Sun, Feb 12 2017A big rig navigating a stretch of windy Wyoming highway last week was blown over by high winds and landed on a Wyoming Highway Patrol cruiser. According to CBS News, three Wyoming Highway Patrol troopers responded to an accident along Interstate 80 near Elk Mountain on February 7. While the troopers were out of their cars assisting the crash victims, a white Volvo semi-truck lumbered up I-80 toward them. Wind gusts in that part of Wyoming were clocked in at up to 90 miles per hour on Tuesday, and one of them caught the semi as it neared the parked cruisers. Video from one of the cruiser's onboard cameras showed the big rig drift to the right as a big gust hit the trailer. Slowly, the whole rig tipped over and flattened one of the parked cruisers. The truck then slid a few feet on its side and came to a stop just aft of the cruiser. None of the troopers were injured in the incident, and two people in the truck came out of it unhurt as well. Patrol Lieutenant David Wagener told KGWN that that stretch of I-80 was closed on Tuesday to lightweight, high-profile vehicles. The truck driver was cited for the incident. High winds are no joke, and vehicles getting blown around or even clean off the road is a pretty common phenomenon. Way back in 2011, a truck got blown over in Utah. Then there was a train that got blown off a bridge in Louisiana in 2015.

A spotter's guide to Super Bowl LIV car commercials
Fri, Jan 31 2020Set to kick off on Fox at 6:30 ET on Sunday, February 2, from Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, the big game will feature the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. Throughout Super Bowl LIV, viewers will see about 50 commercials, each of which costs as much as $5.6 million per 30 seconds, according to AdWeek. Originally, there were more than 77 ad slots, so several companies could be paying well more than $10 million for a single, longer commercial. Numerous car companies have already announced their commercials, or their intentions to show commercials, during the game. Here's a roundup of the ones we know about so far. During the game on Sunday, we'll be livestreaming and adding links to the new commercials as they become available, so check back with us for that post. Audi: E-Tron Sportback Maisie Williams has experience wearing many faces, and in Audi's Super Bowl commercial, she does her best Elsa impression. In the spot, titled "Let It Go," Williams faces the rigorous task of getting through L.A. traffic, but she's alleviated by the comfort of the Audi E-Tron Sportback electric crossover. The commercial is meant to signal the company leaving its gas past behind and moving forward to a sustainable future. Genesis: GV80 Genesis makes its Super Bowl debut with a commercial that will show its all-new SUV, the GV80, to viewers around the world (many of which will be seeing the vehicle for the first time). The ad features Chrissy Teigen and John Legend as the purveyors of "new luxury," while "old luxury" is left for the birds. GMC: Hummer General Motors is bringing back the Hummer nameplate as a premium electric GMC truck. GM says it will have 1,000 horsepower and will be capable of going zero to 60 mph in three seconds. GM brought in NBA legend and Hummer fanboy LeBron James for the debut commercial. Hyundai: Sonata Hyundai is known for bringing in the big-time celebrities for its commercials, and 2020 is no different. A new advertisement called "Smaht Pahk" features John Krasinski, Chris Evans, and Rachel Dratch, all three of whom are from the Boston area. The trio gets into full character as they discuss the new high-tech parking feature on the redesigned 2020 Hyundai Sonata, and David Ortiz makes a cameo at the end. Even when New England isn't in the Super Bowl, New England is in the Super Bowl.
