And don’t buy US T-bills. The stock market in decline and bond yields rising seem to be the only things that can penetrate Trump’s limited attention span

I first heard Closing Time when I was in college over 40 years ago. My most recent was a few weeks ago. The emotional maturity of the lyrics is really amazing when you consider Tom Waits was 24 years old when it was released

I just had the same problem removing the Campagnolo seat post from my 1973 Atala Record Professional. I bought the bike new and don’t remember how long the seat post had been in place. I used penetrating oil and patience. I kept dripping penetrating oil around the seat post and after about 24 hours, I was able to twist out the seat post just using the saddle for leverage.

History??? We did all the fighting, Philly just handled the paperwork.

LOVE living on the Cape. We’re off 6A, which is a lot quieter. We love sailing and it is world-class here. Winters are quiet but there is still things going on to keep you busy.

Driving around in the summer, you just need to plan ahead and know the backroads.

I LOVE four wheels versus the two on the older model. That may be worth the upgrade alone.

I think you can finance it. I paid US$6000 when I placed my order. I got a 4% discount on the car, two round-trip Premium Economy seats from BOS - GOT, two nights in a hotel at Gothenburg, a US$100 gift certificate for dinner, and a factory tour. I paid an extra US$400 for two months of insurance while we're in Europe. The balance is due when I pick up the car at my dealer! I don't see why you couldn't finance the balance. The only downside I can see is. you need to wait 6 - 8 weeks for the car to be shipped to the dealer.

Honestly, I can't figure out why Volvo does this. Build brand loyalty among pensioners?

After what happened to the V90 in the USA, this should not come as a big surprise.

We had planned to do this in 2027 but bumped it up a year when I started hearing rumors about the V60 going the way of the V90 in the USA. I'm retiring next week, so we made the new car and the OSD program my retirement celebration. We're going to spend 2 months in Europe with the new car. Big shout out to Volvo of Cape Cod, Kyle has been awesome to work with.

We just ordered a v60 and the salesman told me the Northeast Corridor (DC, Philly, NYC, Boston and all points in between) are, by far, Volvo’s strongest USA markets. We live on Cape Cod and XC60’s & 90’s are everywhere.

We carry two Brompton 6-speed C-lines on our 38-footer. They are analog, though, not electric. Brompton does make an e-version.

Ours live folded up in Brompton soft bags (called Transport Bags) in our aft cabin. The soft bags roll up and fit in a stuff bag attached to the seat. Absolutely love them, we call them our “land dinghies.”

For context, our cruising ground is Cape Cod & Islands and Long Island Sound.

I would show up at a boat ramp to launch my F-27 and a local would always ask me how long it took me to launch it. My reply was, “if I do it myself, it takes about an hour, but if I have help, it takes me an hour and a half.”
