Ford owns Volvo. Not sure how long they have but I am aware that they cross reference parts. I believe they still have parts manufactured in sweden but the cars themselves are assembled here for the most part.

I learned something interesting a while ago.

I drive a GM FWD Car. That said car has a "Hydra Matic 4T65E" Transmission.  

The Volvo S80 T6 has.. the same transmission.  

I shit you not. Volvo couldn't find a narrow enough transmission to work with the car since it's a FWD Inline 6, and as we know, Inline 6 is a relatively long block.. so they looked to GM for the transmission.

Pic kinda related:  

I got a pretty good kick out of it. They even have the same transmission failures just like the FWD GM's do where the clutches wear out. Then again, it's sped up much more than it is with a 200 hp v6, seeing how those Volvos have a twin-turbo 300 hp I6.  

Shit's crazy.. but on the up side, I could have one of the guys who rebuild Grand Prix / Etc. transmissions, build a race trans for the Volvo since they're the same transmission.

The Volvo S60 is built on the same platform at the Ford Five Hundred

What is it like to go through life a virgin? I know you've probably become accustomed to going home alone every night and getting your little bitch dick half hard looking at child-porn, fighting the urge to get on /b/ to fish for pre-pubescent asian boy dirty-diaper nudes. However, its a new era in gay-twink fetish whoring. You can finally come out, go to your favorite gay bar, and get some bear to use your face as a urinal. Lap up that golden nectar faggot...you deserve it you dirty little bitch. See, next time you see some tall, muscular, affluent social giant like The Hustler, with a sea of 9's and 10's at his beck and call, you can relax and turn off the jealousy. Now shut the fuck up and never type any of your cock-fag, horseshit garbage in any thread on this forum. Daddy never loved you.

Good day, Sir.

i'd tell you to jump off the roof of your house head first onto the sidewalk but encouraging harm is against the rules.

so why don't you just log out and never come back.

Yea, if you did that then this forum would actually be worth a damn.
