    I love my Volvo. It has giant mirrors so I can easily see everything way behind me and it rides and steers like a big Town Car.
    The 3 turn signal levers are a chore but at least there ain't 4 levers.

    You could have fought it yourself. Your honor, it’s a Nissan Pathfinder. 88 mph? You know the officer is committing perjury!!!

    One turn signal lever isn’t enough?

    99 percent of the time, they aren’t going anywhere important. They are speeding because they can. This goes for all cops. It’s usually more prevalent at lunchtime, and at the end of shift. Trust me, i was a cop for a long time.

    The only thing I didn't like about mine was how it would shake when someone passed me. Didn't really care for how I sat up in it either so the whole world could see me.

    If it just had one it would stick out the window.
    They put the cruise control, following distance, jake breaks, wipers and menu buttons on 3 turn signal levers.

    That of course is part of the intent behind modern truck design. They have to make the driver more visible to increase the potential to provide ammunition for slip-and-fall lawyers. :rolleyes:

    “Switches on the dash?

    Oh no, that’s just outdated and stone age”. :rolleyes:
