Even though have not been on VS too long... VS has been a great help through out my Volvo ownership, Saved me lots of $$, Given me lots and lots of good buying advice etc etc.. I like VS because it is allways evolving and changing. Some ppl may not like that, But I do. Chuck and the mod team are great! Also I like the fact that VS is for the most part member supported. That way the "sponsor's" can't dictate what we say. ( Another reason I picked VS over SS)
