Lets play a little game, who's 850R is this in Colorado? I randomly found this in a streetfire video, which is an excellent video BTW

I just moved away from Colorado where I was a Volvo mechanic and the car doesn't look familiar to me. The one that came to my shop had tinted windows and dark interior which a guy named Eric owned. There are a few older guys in Denver with white R's and tan interior but can't think of their names.

Hey J-rod! When are you moving back? smile.gif

I don't know this car either and I know most of the players in the area. Maybe he (or the OP) will show up at the All-Euro Meet on Feb 28th. Volvo guys are meeting at the Sonic on Arapahoe and Lima at 11:30am.

At Tuner Mayheim we spoke to the owner of this 850 R. The car was fairly new to him and if I remember right it was stock.

Do you think Seattle is the rainiest city in the United States? Well, think again.

Mobile, Alabama, actually topped a new list of soggiest cities in the 48 contiguous states, with more than 5 feet of rainfall annually, according to a study conducted by San Francisco-based WeatherBill, Inc.

The Southeast dominated the most rainy list, while the Pacific Northwest never enters the list until Olympia, Washington pops up at number 24.

The 10 rainiest cities in the U.S. by amount of annual rainfall include:

Mobile, Alabama--67 inches average annual rainfall; 59 average annual rainy days
Pensacola, Florida--65 inches average annual rainfall; 56 average annual rainy days
New Orleans, Louisiana--64 inches average annual rainfall; 59 average annual rainy days
West Palm Beach, Florida--63 inches average annual rainfall; 58 average annual rainy days
Lafayette, Louisiana--62 inches average annual rainfall; 55 average annual rainy days
Baton Rouge, Louisiana--62 inches average annual rainfall; 56 average annual rainy days
Miami, Florida--62 inches average annual rainfall; 57 average annual rainy days
Port Arthur, Texas--61 inches average annual rainfall; 51 average annual rainy days
Tallahassee, Florida--61 inches average annual rainfall; 56 average annual rainy days
Lake Charles, Louisiana--58 inches average annual rainfall; 50 average annual rainy days


Yeah it rains all the time rolleyes.gif

South Dakota is better than Denver if you like -20 degree weather for 2 weeks straight! And a frozen intercooler. And terrible gas mileage!!!
