Sean,
Sorry for the late reply, and thank you for the TU and doing lunch., had a great time talking with another BB'er face to face for a change. Irv Gordon has nothing to worry about as I doubt I'll live long and strong enough to keep this beast going myself beyond 2030! Not to discredit Irv, but I suspect he gets a free oil change and any needed service at every dealership he visits! That is NOT a dig, it is an assumption on my part! Irv, however, is a good man, roughly 6 months after my wife's accident, he stated in approximate words that my wife was one of the true voices of Volvo after surviving her accident.
I kind of forgot about Irv's statement until a few months ago, when I had the mower shop up the street rebuild the head on our JD CV15S Kohler engine. The father of the shop owner saw my wife, the same man that called 911 8 years ago in order to recover her body (that is what the medics told him.) When he saw my wife, alive, walking and talking, he said "you are the dead lady, you can't be here, I saw the tire blow and the crash!", then he stepped away.
She gave him a huge hug and thanked him for helping to save her life. As it turns out, he didn't have a cell phone, he broke into a home to use the phone, after wards, the homeowners added a $5 charge to the insurance claim for the fence in order to replace the screen door lock he broke.
The brick (Volvo), a Samaritan, and the good Lord saved her life, I am thankful to all!
