@@ricksampson6780 its important to remember that, we UA-camrs with tiny channels, we must work a regular day job to pay the bills. Factor in a wife/kids/life and its hard to make video. Marc and I do speak in DMs once in a while. Fear not, hes alive and kicking!
You can absolutely go into the woods to get a tree here in Oregon. A $5 permit and you can cut down one in the National Forest. I had a friend that used to cut down his with a shotgun. To get a good one you have to go above 5,000 ft and you're likely to get stuck in the snow. We don't salt the roads here either so lots of pristine classics including 240s to be found. Just sayin'
@@DeanofMachines I mean, adding a V8 to things sounds always good (except love toys, cannot recommend that). As long as the look keeps the same, it would just keep getting better and better.
@ one plug on my volvo keep getting damaged frequently. It’s a 1989 240 wagon. What would be the possible reason for that and the solutions i can take. Or any advice on the best plugs to use
not to be that guy but god damn $200 for a christmas tree? When I was a kid in the 90's you could get a tree for 20-80 dollars! thats insane! I just bought a $25 artificial tree and its worked great for several years!
@@DeanofMachines yeah i bought a $25 artificial tree and it does great plus you don't have to worry about needles everywhere. i do love the smell of a real tree though!
Great to see that you have not stopped the channel as mentioned last week. The War Wagon is a cool Volvo.
We don’t want to stop!! Stay tuned for more adventures
@@DeanofMachines Your colleague Marc from Simpsons Classics has gone AWOL for some reason, most confusing!

I might have to!
Nothing like the smell of a fresh Christmas tree 🌲
We love how it makes the house smell soooo goood!!!
In Sweden we are free to roam in nature, but we are not free to just randomly cut trees down. So there it is not much difference 🙂
Some places owned by the government allow us to roam in nature. Much of it is private property though :(
Appreciate you making videos man. The 240 cult only lives because of creators like you. Cheers mate, happy holidays to you and yours :)
We're doing our best to keep it alive! I appreciate you coming back for more content. The Volvo family is the best!!!
I haven’t been watching for a while. You two are a well matched couple. Thank you for staying with the channel. Merry Christmas.
Thanks for the Merry Christmas wish! We wish you the best this holiday season. We will be here when you have time!
I know I'm repeating myself but that is just the best Volvo wagon on YT (at least for me, except some V8 swaps). Love that frigging thing!
@@jlisehrl would you love this car more if it was a V8 swap?
@@DeanofMachines I mean, adding a V8 to things sounds always good (except love toys, cannot recommend that). As long as the look keeps the same, it would just keep getting better and better.
@ heard loud and clear!!
Actually, you can just cut your own tree with a $7.50 permit from the forest service.
We'll have to remember that next year!
We just have to find somewhere that has a tree!
Dean Dean so happy to see you
Thanks for coming back!! I appreciate your weekly comments!!
Fun fact: the 95' 740 came with an accessory bracket that didn't use any of those crappy bushings...😎
@@BushidoDriver you are absolutely right!
Chickens are seasonal - look again in the Spring.
Thats fair. We will look then
The best thing you have is your "WIFE" ! She helps you with your videos & Volvo's lucky man!
hey!! good job on keeping the channel going! good luck in future.
Thanks man! We enjoy sharing our shenanigans even if they are a simple task like getting a Christmas tree!
11:20 Same here in Sweden. Christmas tree is cheap here to buy tho.
Maybe next year we will get a Christmas tree in Sweden!
I have a 1981 and what did you have to do to fit the 16x9
Should fit right on!!
@ no pulling or rolling on the fenders??
@ nope! As long as youre tires are stretched and you dont go too low
@ thank you so much!!! Once mines done I’ll share!!!
@ cant wait to see it!!
Great video to enjoy before i go to work, keep it up😀
Thats the perfect time to watch!!
@DeanofMachines igreed😀
When the guy said the Tractor Supply trees were 20 percent off he meant height not price 😊
You are right! Hahahaha.
That's exactly what a Volvo estate was built for 😂😂
Its the best way to truck a tree around lol
@DeanofMachines hell yes, the later estates were smaller.....but these were perfect
@ its amazing how much space a 245 has!!
@@DeanofMachines this is when size is important 😂😂😂
@@itsmephil2255 exactly!!
Greetings GOD bless I have a 1992 Volvo 240 GL and it has an engine code 113 and it is throwing black smoke as if it were dicel
Sounds like you've got a bit of a problem there! Does anything change if you unplug the maf?
@@DeanofMachines If I disconnect it, it improves a lot better but then it doesn't want to accelerate
@ thats interesting. Sounds like you might have an 02 sensor or cold start solenoid issue!!
@@DeanofMachines A mechanic told me that it could be the coolant sensor but I don't know
Great channel.
I have a Volvo 245 my spark plugs burns the first one.
Which one would you recommend the best for the 245
Hi there, I don't understand the question.
@ one plug on my volvo keep getting damaged frequently. It’s a 1989 240 wagon. What would be the possible reason for that and the solutions i can take. Or any advice on the best plugs to use
@@Mrbot-th5rg Is it impact damage or is it electrical wear? Or is it ending up wet? Is it missing pieces?
@ no it is ending up wet exactly
not to be that guy but god damn $200 for a christmas tree? When I was a kid in the 90's you could get a tree for 20-80 dollars! thats insane! I just bought a $25 artificial tree and its worked great for several years!
Its nuts isn’t it? We live near good ole ATL and the prices for everything are extremely inflated!!
@@DeanofMachines yeah i bought a $25 artificial tree and it does great plus you don't have to worry about needles everywhere. i do love the smell of a real tree though!
@ we have an artificial tree but we love the smell!!
Go plastic in sexy VW yassssss
That jacket looks awfully serious..... I thought you lived in the south?!...🤔
YES! New cars are garbage! Don't fall into the trap
It was a little chilly when we were out and about!
Xmas is for children!
Thats not entirely true. Its for anyone that enjoys the season!
@@DeanofMachines Perhaps, do you have any additional information on the drone/alien invasion of Earth currently underway?
