13 years ago, William Stiles, an expert in American Indian history, discovered the treasure as you see here : a 1966 Volvo.

He bought it because ads of the time said Volvos were so tough that they lasted an average of 11 years in Sweden.

As Mr. Stiles remembers: One ad said that a Volvo was so tough that you could “Drive it like you hate it.” I did exactly like that. In my field work, I’ve driven this car 295,000hard miles. Much of it through former Indian countryside. It is held up even better than promised. Driving it like I hated it made me love it.

Expressions of love are not uncommon among Volvo owners. In fact, 9 out of 10 people who have bought new Volvos are happy.
