Re: [Paddlewise] Volvo maintainance

I once owned a Saab.  Bought it new. It broke so often that at one point I
needed an attorney to threaten the dealership. Ended up selling it for the
amount of the next four  figure repair estimate. It didn't have a kayak
rack.  I threw that in to at least make the appearance of my post being
paddling related.
