Looks nice but I'm not buying a full size SUV with a 4 cylinder.

I’ll bet general maintenance is crazy expensive.

I like them. It's a wife car that I wouldn't mind being stuck with for a few weeks.

While I always seem to think I like a Volvo, I have never actually considered buying one.

The factory delivery is the only thing that gets me interested in buying one.

Two infants. They fit. But the back row becomes useless because each base prevents the seat from folding down and no one can fit into the middle comfortably with two carriers.

We were upgrading from a grand Cherokee for the size. It didn't make sense for us. Captains chairs are perfect for two carriers.

Reliability rating has me most concerned. I’d like to think I have a new vehicle that can go 12 years w no damn worry about much of anything

Bought the wife one in May. She loves it, only complaint is that it’s a little difficult to control radio and A/C. And the A/C is loud.

That was my only complaint too. You have to take y9ur eyes off the road or talk to the car to control the a/c

Ford use to own Volvo. Also Jaguar Land Rover.

Sold them all because they were losing money due to quality problems. Volvo is now owned by a Chinese company.

The a/c is only loud when you have the back seat a/c on high. Really loud.

The wife has the XC60, wish we would have bought the V90CC.

I think this looks better than the XC90, but so does the XC60 (more feminine at least). This one has the best road presence though.


They're all pretty much the same price when outfitted similarly. Well, until you get to the Executive XC90...I'd love to have that one.
