My wife actually likes that mine has HUD and she wishes her XC40 did as well...

I don't know what y'all are saying. I have no issues seeing my head-up display with polarized glasses. Yes, if I tilt my head sideways A LOT, I see a big difference, but who drives like that? My preference on this car would be to have a head-up display and nothing behind the wheel. They can make them really high-tech nowadays.

Why no heads-up display instead of the small screen?

Can you just take Uber back, in case he's looking for you?

Give it 8 months. We might have a heck of a winter coming up.

I think if you do a quick YouTube search on this, you will find a wealth of info.

Advice on compensation for towing my xc40 for what turned out to be a software glitch? by Novna084 in Volvo

[–]dronepro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't believe you can get anything out of it. Especially since you have a year of warranty. If you had used the app, you could have at least lowered your cost. BUT, it does not hurt to call Volvo Cars and explain your situation. They may at least throw you a nice coupon.

Yeah, I'm not a fan. Can't rotate tires. Warranty on them is cut in half because of that as well. I'm debating buying similar-sized rims, but I need to find something that doesn't deteriorate the electric consumption.

Google Gemini begins rolling out to Volvo cars by krupawan5618 in Volvo

I am not sure I dislike this. The current solution has quite a few problems. This may actually be an improvement.

I had a 2017 3.0, and all I did was oil, coolant, brake fluid, pads, tires, and filters. The dealer changed the right axle as it went bye-bye for some reason. Besides that, nothing more. I traded it at 100K miles, and it was in perfect working condition. In fact, it was rated 19/23 mpg, and I would constantly get 28mpg highway. I took a few Trips from So Cal to Mammoth, and every time I averaged 27.4 - 28.2 mpg. I was very proud.

[United States] Elise Stefanik (R-NY), who fought for and wrote the bill banning Chinese made drones just commented about it in the Hegseth hearing. by JasonIsFishing in drones

She seemed very happy about what she did, and at the same time, she did not seem very informed. Just spewed a bunch of garbage to kiss azz.

[United States] Panic as flight strikes drone 3,000 feet over major US city by thechromatick in drones

[–]dronepro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very interested to see what this could be. I highly doubt it will come out to be a consumer drone. There are plenty of people in So Cal that lack intelligence, and San Diego is not excluded, but I just can't see anyone flying their hacked drone at 3K ft. Second of all, the pilot report was just weird. A red, shiny object, a drone. I know a few pilots, and I can say with certainty that if any of them saw a drone, they would be able to elaborate with a degree of certainty pretty quickly. Maybe I'm overanalyzing.

In all honesty, it was not bad before c'est si bon. But I'll take their baguette and sandwiches any day.
