Not a minivan - thank goodness

This car is fun to drive and is just beautiful to look at. It's great for driving kids around, but even more fun when you get to drive it on your own. No one will ever suspect this is Mom's Taxi. This is no minivan, but has lots of room for 5 and a huge trunk. I never thought I would drive a Volvo, but my T5 is just awesome.

Second Volvo, sporty fun, acceleration is not fast off-the-line, but watch out when turbo kicks in. This vehicle gets-it at 40 to 90mph. Performance it's there. Doesn't have all the bells and whistles of a Lexus, but who wants that? That's for mom and grandma.

My first Volvo

I've had my Volvo 10 months and love it! I traded in my SUV in order to save on gas. I have not had any problems and I get better gas mileage than I thought I would --- about 35 Hwy as long as I drive 69mph. Very very happy overall!

Will absence make my heart grow fonder?

2008 Volvo S60 2.5T 4dr Sedan AWD (2.5L 5cyl Turbo 5A)

This is my fourth Volvo, so I guess I am brand loyal. The AWD is awesome. The car is heavier than my last T5 S60, although inside it is almost identical. The drive is powerful, and the acceleration with the geartronic transmission makes the car very fun to drive. The leather, stereo, etc., is just enough luxury for me. Sad to say I haven't had it 2 full months and it will be in the shop already because the temperature gauge does not work and the fan will not stop. Car currently sounds like a jet plane after starting it.

Reliable Volvo x60

We bought our s60 from a former dealership manager who now buys good cars at auction for clients. Ours was 1 year old and so gently used, it still looked new. Truly, we have changed oil, air filter and tires and that's about it. It is our 5th volvo (6th for our family) and we just keep coming back to the Volvo for reliability. We even know folks with really old Volvo's with 250,000+ miles and still going. Ours had aged incredibly well and we are happy with it.
