SparcEE Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 What's a diesel Volvo mule doing in the USA, especially in CA. One can only wonder. It has Arizona plates...it came from the VAPG = Volvo Arizona Proving Grounds from NW of Phoenix outside of Sun City. There is nothing special about this...all of Volvo (and Ford) uses this facility including vehicles not destined for the US. SparcEE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmc523 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Is that really what size the XC60 is? It appears to be about the same size as the XC90 in front of it in these pictures. Maybe it's just the angle the picture was taken at, or is it really that big? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they do have Arizona MT (Manufacturer Test vehicle) license plates on them, so they are "test vehicles". If they were being used for anything other than test purposes, they would not have camo on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inteller Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Ah yes, we need to create more demand for $5 gal diesel...lets make more diesels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old_fairmont_wagon Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 What is this Diesel you people speak of? With all of this talk of "diesel", is it some famous person? LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemiman Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 (edited) Did they ever make a CV diesel? Now you're talking! 4.4 Ford Diesel CV. I'd buy one tomorrow! The Diesel/Gas cost disparity will flip flop by next summer making diesels even more attractive. Not saying Ford should go all diesel, but they should start adding compression ignition to the engine line up.

old_fairmont_wagon Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 He was doing fine in his career till he bailed on the second triple X movie to make.... The Pacifier. A cute movie to be sure, but, man, didn't do his career any favors. I still want to see a movie with Vin Diesel and Dewayne "the rock" Johnson in opposing roles. That sound you hear is the Earth being torn in half... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
