  First 1000 miles - 2003 Volvo XC90
  By nicksal - April 7 - 2:00 am

  Traded a 2000 Suburban on the XC90. Clearly a fantastic vehicle. My wife and I have enjoyed every mile so far. Our 3 children 7,4 and 3 are very comfortable without any compromise. No matter where we are, people stop and look at the car, often being complimentary. I recommend this car over a Suburban or an Expedition based on personal experience.

  Gas Guzzler and Computer Problems - 2003 Volvo XC90
  By alex - February 28 - 2:23 pm

  Bought this used/certified car with only 20,000 miles. After 1 1/2 months, the system computer breaks down with a message that the braking system and SRS had conked out. Had the car towed to dealership. Service people said its a minor computer glitch. OK. Guess what, same problem happened again 8 times for the next 18 months, everytime had the car towed and all the inconveniences. Had the car for only 18 months and have already replaced tires, steering rod and lots of other things. Had it serviced for 30,000 miles and cost was $1,100. Overall city mileage was 11 mpg, highway about 16. With premium gas prices at $3.30/gal, this car is more expensive than sending a child to college.

  Great SUV - 2003 Volvo XC90
  By volvoforlife - January 7 - 2:00 am

  I have test driven the X5 and the ML320 and neither one gave me the same comfort and driving pleasure as the XC90. The fit and finish was superior and the dealership was freindly and professional. In reviewing the options I got with the XC90 I definitely got more car than the Mercedes or BMW and it is safer too. I plan I having this SUV for a long time.

  Worst Car I Ever Owned - 2003 Volvo XC90
  By Tom - November 29 - 9:13 am

  This was my first and will be my last Volvo. This thing needs new tires every 20,000 miles, grinds through brake pads, needed a new transmission at 80,000 miles and now at 100,000 miles the turbo is blown. Probably had this car in the shop 2 to 3x per year for various electrical and mechanical problems. Volvo was gracious enough to replace the transmission for only the cost of labor (I am convinced they have a silent recall going on) but it still cost me $1,600. Now to fix the turbo will cost another $5,000. It is time to trade in this albatross....I should have done it 30,000 miles ago. Volvo should just recall this vehicle and give everybody their money back.

  Awesome SUV - 2003 Volvo XC90
  By RdLT5R - November 24 - 2:00 am

  This SUV is All Wheel AWesome. I drove it to the mountain and it handles so smoothly. The power is perfect for my driving situations and the feeling of safety inside this tank is priceless. My kids love the car and I dont have any hesitation in bringing them along anytime.

  My Favorite Car - 2003 Volvo XC90
  By Vicki - October 23 - 2:23 am

  Almost the perfect vehicle! Im in sales so I live in my car...consequently the interior is very important. I would love to have an electronic lumbar support adjustment. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this vehicle. Drives and performs like a dream! I will definitely buy another one when the time comes! I did not like the factory tires however and replaced those with ones that give better ride, handle and wear!

  Get it! - 2003 Volvo XC90
  By bcrafto - October 2 - 10:00 am

  I bought this for my wife. She absolutely loves it! I have a 98 Mercedes Benz ML320, and in a lot of ways, the Volvo is much nicer. Now I understand that I am comparing a 04 to a 98. We have only had the vehicle for 3 weeks, but I dont have anything to complain about except for the price. I did manage did get $1,200 off of sticker though. That is much better than what I have heard most are paying.
