2006 Volvo XC90 AWD review from North America
"You can spend a lot more money and you can't buy a much better SUV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Home Link Sun Visor needed to be replaced.
General comments?
Traded in a 2003 T6. Totally different vehicle. V8 power and responsiveness vs. T6 sluggishness and roughness.
Ride much better in 7 seat V8. Worth extra money..
All in all great value for the money. Killer sound system.
Rock solid ride with power at 80+ MPH. Steering could be a bit tighter otherwise well designed and manufactured.
