I doubt that. Volvos are excellent cars that just exude luxury and class. Besides, you will easily stand out among our sea of E90s that anyone will notice you right away. I think it will be a fun cruise with bunch of E90s and your Volvo.

Longtran, check your math. 3.5 hrs for 300 miles? That's ~86 mph, average - without stops.

That sounds about right for Long!!!!

Serious though, Reno is about 3.5 hours from where I am, and it's just under 300 miles oneway. I assume though, that going south will take ALOT more time with heavy traffic.

heading down to SB is not a bad drive. 101 is a lot better than i-5.

i drove my e90 to south tahoe this past weekend. first real road trip in the e90.

Oh! How was it?! I never have taken any of my cars up to Tahoe because of the rough roads and snow(this time of year).

i wouldnt takea brand new car upto tahoe during teh winter. in the summer its not so bad..

when my parents first bought their mercedes a few years back, we drove it upto tahoe to ski and it was snowing on the way so this guy had to put on chains for our car. it ended up scratching the side panels of the car adn when we got back, we had to go get it fixed.

but if you wait until the spring when its not snowing and the weather is nicer, its not that bad of a drive. nice and scenic!

thats my grandma! whenever we go to tahoe, we go to reno too and my grandma will sit at a table all day and gamble. but shes good at it, so its okay

yeah, after that incident, my parents always rented when we go up there. we usually just get like a ford explorer that way, we dont need chains and its not ourrr car so we don't feel bad when we track our snow boots and ski equipment in and out of the car.

The drive to do is 92w, 35s (skyline), past Alices @ 4corners, 84w, 1n and then 92e back to the beginning. Lots of curves, great coastlone scenery and about the right amount of time. Its exactly where I'm going to go once I take delivery in April.

Just my $.02

easy trip, because no snow on the road.

leaving south tahoe on sunday, the storm was coming in. so everybody and their mom was trying to leave. a few snow flurries came down, but i beat the snow. heading closer to sac it started raining like a mofo and for the rest of the way.

i usually rent a suv too. but i got tied up on friday, and had to take myself there. every year my friends and i have a tahoe trip, and we rent a house for the weekend. on my other regular tahoe trips, we usually rent an suv or take a car that's ok for the snow.

Key KT - can you post a pic of the CF splitter you put on? I'm also getting a black 330 and would love to see how these look on your ride.
