Got the new car on the road, finally.
Bought this in late October. Roads in Arkansas produce so many stone chips, I stored this in the garage until we could get the clear bra and front windows tinted. Done now. This is our third Volvo since 2012.

2021 Volvo XC60 T6 AWD Inscription. I love the supercharged and turbo charged engine.

Yup, China. They now are called Vorvo! Still made in Sweden.

I really like that at least some new vehicles have maximum torque at a low rpm.

Very nice! I'm in a 2018 V90CC t6. It's also my 3rd Volvo wagon. Ran the other 2 up to 180k each.

How are the maintenance costs and reliability these days?
Volvo is on our list to replace my wife’s suv next year.

My wife’s car is a 2017 XC-60. We bought it as a CPO, with 19k miles in February. It’s a very capable car: comfortable, quick, handles well, and stops very well. It was a good buy for us.

Very nice. I owned a 240 and an 850 and loved them both. That's a whole other level of Volvo right there!
