Don't. They're garbage. Take if from a retired 2 year valet driver.

Did you work in Vegas by any chance?

Not sure how they are though but there are two 80's Volvos in the family that went over 400k miles without needing any major service.  I don't think their Ford generation was all that good but I bet the new ones are pretty nice.

What kind of retirement package for you get for two years as a valet? Do you have to wait until 65 to receive benefits and is dental included in the health plan?

It's kind of creepy when you have a guy that has no shirt on, driving a car with cats all over it.  One step below a guy driving a van with free candy on it.

You would drive a Volvo.

Before I make any car buying decisions I consult the experts.

That is a really early episode of the reboot.

I have owned three Volvos, but have not had one in a long time. I owned a '72 142E, a '74 145 and a '76 265DL. The best ones, IMO, were the 240 series that they quit making a long time ago. Virtually bulletproof. Test drove a V70 when I was looking for an SUV and didn't care for it at all. Very sluggish, choppy ride, iffy handling, poor instrumentation layout. The sedans may be better.

Yeah...its super lame driving Rolls Royce's, Ferrari's, Lamborghini's and pretty much any car that most people can't even dream of getting behind the wheel for a measly $20+ an hour.
 

Keeping in mind every so often you have to get in a Volvo, I wouldn't suggest it as a part time gig, for anyone.

Pretty much. And nope, a lot of the interior layout and feel is very much the same across the board, for the most part only the body style changes.

that's a nice way to earn 50k a year.
