My mother-in-law bought this car used, but had it thoroughly checked out before doing so. She drove it gently and treated it like a second child, babying it and making sure it always got the best of care by a mechanic who worked almost exclusively with Volvos. She fixed it up a great deal before gifting it to us, with the intent that it would last us at least a good 100,000 more miles. Unfortunately we have fallen on hard times and would like to sell the car.

It has a newly rebuilt engine which is very clean. It runs GREAT, is extremely reliable, the AC is like a glacier blowing at you and the heat is volcanic. They work wonderfully!

The back seat folds down and the car runs like a dream. Every now and then, it may feel a little rough if it's been sitting for too long without being driven, but that clears up when you take it for a drive. The stereo, speakers and dome light don't work, and would need to be replaced. We didn't bother with that when we got it because it simply wasn't that important to us.

It needs a few more things, which is why the price is marked down from $10,000.00 to $9,000.00. The main things it needs are tires, an alignment (the reason it needs tires), and an enclosure for a turn signal (got broken trying to get it out of the ice this past winter). It had a few small rust spots which have been treated so they will not continue to grow and create a problem, but it could use a little paint touch-up in those spots.

See Volvo's integration of Apple CarPlay in action

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

Apple unveiled its new CarPlay touchscreen infotainment system earlier today, and Volvo has just released a video showing the system in action. The Cupertino tech giant is expected to announce partnerships with Ferrari and Mercedes-Benz to license CarPlay, as well, at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show and will be working with even more manufacturers in the future.
The system pairs the driver's iPhone with the car's infotainment system and seamlessly allows them use the smart phone's functions and, at least in Volvo's demonstration, the car's climate control and seat heating systems. According to the video, the new system will be available "in the coming generation Volvo cars," which likely means the upcoming, next-generation Volvo XC90.
However, the system will not work universally. Apple will add functionality through an update to iOS 7 in the future for the iPhone 5, 5C and 5S. At launch other devices won't be supported. Scroll down to watch CarPlay work. We are expecting more details to emerge on the new infotainment system when the Swiss show opens tomorrow.

Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?

Sun, Jul 9 2023

The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric.Â Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands.Â If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) Â— unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla.Â Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor.Â Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have:Â Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners Â— those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port Â— will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 Â— eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
