I got a 1992 Volvo 240 Wagon, with 165K on it. It is usually just used
for around town trips, I have only owned it two months, but in the two
months I have taked a few 100 mile day trips, a 300 mile day trip, and
a 700 mile weekend trip, I changed the oil, serviced the transmission,
and the car seems to do fine, although a little underpowered on the
highway, and it does ping if I put less thank high test in it. Anyway,
we have to drive from Central FL, to Michigan and back, I am a little
nervous about driving the Volvo, but my other car is a 1972 beetle, I
have no doubt about the beetle making it, it is just too small and
uncomfortable.
Is there any reason I should doubt the Volvo, any things I should look
for or check out before the trip?
I plan on buying a AAA plus membership before leaving.
