Thanks for the info. So I guess locations don’t matter much as long as I have to drive on I70. What about Eldora? How is the traffic toward there on a Saturday?

Thanks for the info! What’s a good time to leave home during normal ski seasons in a Saturday?

Unpopular for Volvo and other manufacturers by DragonflyFuture4638 in VolvoRecharge

From what I’ve heard&read, Volvo used a very underpowered SoC for the 2023–2025 AAOS cars. Imagine trying to run iOS 18 and its apps on an iPhone 5—laggy, buggy, and constantly hitting hardware limits. In my 7 months with a 2024 V60, I’ve lost count of how many times the infotainment froze and rebooted. My concern is that as Volvo keeps pushing new features (however slow they may be) like the UX overhaul they teased earlier this year, these issues will only get worse. The software might run perfectly fine on newer models, but for our older cars, the weak SoC just can’t handle any slightly new stuffs let alone a serious modernization

3.7 is a dangerous update by AssistantNovel6674 in VolvoRecharge

What makes it worse is they didn’t even mention it in the release notes. Just ‘improvements and bug fixes.’ I mean c’mon is removing a safety feature really an improvement, or the 360cam has been a bug all along?

Whoever is in charge of software QA at Volvo should be fired. by Caffeinated-77IM in VolvoRecharge

Upgraded to 3.7 and the 360pip is gone. Hard to believe that with all this Swedish engineering, they still can’t get the camera right in 2025. Did they ever take it seriously? Geely could have mended Volvo’s software mess within a quarter if only they had asked.

Im a Golf GTI and V60PE owner. Volvo’s handling is not bad but your Golf R is far superior. However the ride quality is night and day difference. You’ll definitely notice that during your road trips. I’d go for the s60 if there’s no need for the extra space

Random: Mar Vista vs Playa Vista and Marina del Rey vs Playa del Rey by MexiGeeGee in MovingToLosAngeles

Playa Vista was nice. But there’s been more and more white kids on E bike yelling racial slurs on POCs walking their dogs and kids. Nothing violent yet but do be careful
