Here in the rural northwest corner of the state of Washington, 240 series Volvos once were the popular choice for a blend of comfort, style, and economy. But, now that the Volvos are close to the end of their lifespans, the 123's of similar vintage have replaced them, such that must be more 123's per capita here than anywhere else on the planet. I'm reminded of the three things that every Volvo owner knows: 1 -- Volvos get good gas mileage; 2 -- Volvos are very dependable; and 3 -- his or her Volvo is the only exception to items 1 and 2.
