LMAO!!!

You two need to take Elon Musk's dick out of your mouth.

My wife and I both drive fully loaded S60's. Mine is a 2012 and hers is a 2017. (She gets a new one every 4 years when it's paid off and I get the hand-me-down.)

Most we ever paid was for her new one with adaptive cruise control. 42,000...about half the cost of the comparable model S Tesla.

A model 3 is a piece of shit. You couldn't give me one.

It's comparable to a Nissan Sentra. It's not in the same league as the S60.

How reliable are Volvo?
Volvo are relatively reliable. J.D Power have ranked them as average in all categories in their most recent Vehicle Dependability Study. This includes overall dependability as well as powertrain, body and interior and feature and accessory dependability.

AutoExpress also put them somewhere in the middle, with a score of 91.16 in their vehicle reliability study.

ReliabilityIndex are less kind, putting them in 23rd place out of 32, with a reliability index of 125. This is below the industry average of 118 (the higher the score the better). So as a brand, Volvo aren’t the most reliable,

like i said, average to below average.

but i'll never buy one so who cares really?

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has released its safety rating for the Tesla Model 3 today and the electric vehicle has gotten a perfect 5-star safety rating in every category.

Warning: if you don’t like seeing beautiful Model 3 vehicles being crashed, don’t read the rest of this post.

Tesla achieved the same impressive results in the Model S and Model X.

Now the automaker is repeating the achievement in the less expensive Model 3.

You're an idiot.

I've sat in them both. We have a dealer (Tesla) down at Lenox mall. The 3 is a piece of shit. The S is the only one worth buying, but it's certainly not worth 80,000 dollars.

That's why we didn't buy one.

But do continue posting pictures of other people's shit and dreaming. It's clearly all you can do.

You were wrong about this too.

I don't think you are an idiot. Just unjustifiably confident in your abilities.

Which is why I said you can find bad reports. Notice I mentioned models to look at? All Brands have crap cars. GM especially due to Opel.
"The XC60 also made it onto the AutoExpress Driver Power survey of 2017 as one of the most reliable cars to drive. It has a score of 94.86 and comes in just below the Lexus NX."

Lexus is a brand name Toyota. Toyota would have to be the most reliable car and brand on the road.

This seems to be a sub debate and really not worth arguing over. Volvo build good cars- always have. (and that hurts to say..belive me.).
Its a better car than the Telsla for 2 simple reasons. You can actually go for a long drive in it in comfort and you can drive it when the electricity is not doing its thing - Zombie apocalypse and no power?.. Don't ya hate blackouts?

U ever hear of solar? Free fuel. Tesla owners wake up every morning to a full tank.....California is officially the first state to require newly built homes to come with solar panels to offset their electricity use. The state Building Standards Commission voted unanimously to add the requirement to the state building code last week, the San Jose Mercury News reported....https://nextcity.org/daily/entry/california-will-require-solar-panels-on-all-new-homes
