First of many Volvos
We bought our XC60 a few weeks ago and WE LOVE IT! We researched nearly every midsize SUV in the market (Acura RDX, VW, Nissan, Infiniti, Subaru, Jeep, Honda, GMC, Mazda, Lincoln, Lexus, Audi, Mercedes) and we always kept comparing them to the Volvo XC60. We love everything about this car! We went with the T6 w. climate, premium, & convenience packages. We love the power and responsiveness of the T6. Other SUVs we looked at had an annoying turbo lag. The fuel economy isn't fantastic but we knew that going in and it hasn't disappointed. On a long road trip we average 22 MPG. This is our first Volvo and I know that it wont be our last!
Love love love
This is my 4th Volvo and the best yet. Purchased over a year ago and it has performed substantially better than any previous Volvo models I've owned. Volvo's safety reputation is what keeps me coming back and the XC60 is no exception. I constantly get compliments on what a nice looking vehicle it is. Has perfect blend of cargo space, but does not look or feel like a full scale SUV (that's good in my opinion!). Only downside is the gas mileage. I am spending a lot of quality time at gas stations! I would still buy another one in a heartbeat.

Smooth operator
Car (AWD 3.2L) rides extremely smoothly and feels great in city and highway driving. Even though Volvo is known for making comfortable cars, this model has probably best combination of suspension, tires and seats. It is extremely comfortable and quiet. Base engine has enough power and it is fun to drive in snow and in mountains. Base sound system and blue tooth are excellent. We did not get model with factory- installed navigation system but any aftermarket system can be nicely mounted on dash. We enjoy this car very much after owning it for 6 months (8 k miles)and would recommend it. It has nicer exterior lines than any other Volvo and is very comfortable for whole family.
Wipers are a saftey hazard
The vehicle handles well in all types of weather. However, side mirror defrosters would be a great addition since they are standard on other vehicles. Besides the poor navigation system and poor night time back up camera visibility, my main complaint is the poor design for the windshield wipers. For a such a safety conscious company, Volvo blew it in this area. These are a safety hazard. Snow & ice build up quickly despite a defrost temp of 85 degrees, requiring frequent stops in inclement weather and traffic to clear! The large swath not covered by the wipers in upper right windshield, is also a safety hazard due to the poor visibility this creates.
Love My XC90
First let me say up front that my Volvo is not 2010. It was the youngest option and I chose it so I could share my experience owning my XC90. I purchased my Volvo 2006 XC90 new from the dealer. It was on the expensive side but having owned 2 used volvos prior I felt comfortable with this purchase. So, the reason for my post is to let others interested in purchasing older XC90's would know a little about them. I have had a wonderful experience owning mine. It is currently 11 years old but it aged very well and looks as current as newer models. I have 3 sons so comfort mattered. The vehicle has adiquitly accommodated that must manyntimes on long trips. Realibality was a absolute! I got that also. Not sure if my experience is unusual or not but I've noticed many other owners of the same have had not so go comments about owning theirs. However, I only have a couple of issues to be noted. First, I did have to replace the Turbo at about 80k. This was the largest repair expense I've had as of yet. Also, I learned that when this Volvo recommends the oil change frequency, it means it. Had I paid attention to my oil changes, it would of saved my turbo and I most likely wouldn't of had to replace it. Oil change as recommended a must! Second: at about 110k my Volvo started sputtering, acting hesitant at take off and it had even did on me a few times. Problem solved very quickly and didn't cost that much. It was my coils. This is regular wear and replace. Done. Now for the features. I have one complaint... I do hate the headlight covers. They are so fogged up and there is no way for them to be cleaned. Hate them. Volvo should have made these out of glass and not plastic. Also, the seat adjusting systems. Both of mine have broken and I've had to replace twice. Just a bad designe. Utility box in middle front seats slips from connection and lid busted at hinge. Not so bad. Front cup holders are not removeable so they stay dirty unless your willing to pry them out and break them. Sirously though, wonderful car for my family and I truly would recommend. So sad to see that this auto didn't hold a higher value at resale. It is really worth a lot more. One happy Volvo owner!
