  Got what I paid for, Volvo XC90 - 2005 Volvo XC90
  By Jose Cuartero - December 5 - 4:50 pm

  Best SUV out there. It is very good looking, reliable and comfortable. It does consume more gas than I would like to, but all of them do anyway.

  Wont buy another one - 2005 Volvo XC90
  By Nathan - December 3 - 4:30 am

  This is my first review of a car. We have owned the car for 2.5 years and 40,000 miles. We love the looks, size and comfort of the car. But we have had so many little issues it drives me crazy. Here is what we have fixed to date. Brakes all around, broken window switches, twice. fog light buttons were pushed in somehow, driver and passenger seat plastic trim, engine ventilation hose, headlight plastic hazed, engine torque mount, and the driver seat leather is incredibly worn and the steering wheel and shift boot leather is starting to flake. The center console wood is now faded. This for a car that is always garaged and we live in non sunny Oregon!

  My 2004 Volvo XC 90 Experience...So Far - 2005 Volvo XC90
  By Charles Paakkari - November 22 - 11:13 pm

  So Far its been a great car. Drive and handling are amazing. It is truly the safest SUV on the planet. All crash and rool tests agree on that. Equally at home in the snow or in Beverly Hills.

  Never again - 2005 Volvo XC90
  By joggin jonny - October 30 - 5:30 pm

  This is my third and last Volvo. I said that after the second one but my wife talked me into it again. Tires and rims replaced due to front end shake. Cracked front suspension member, Loud noisey vibrating turbo. Transmission that downshifts like a manual. Drive train that clunks like a u-joint going out. All this for over $40k? Potential SUV buyers would do well to look elsewhere.

  Excellent Vehicle - 2005 Volvo XC90
  By David K - October 22 - 10:50 am

  I consider this vehicle to be the best Ive owned. Its classy, comfortable, reliable and economical. On a recent trip, I got 24 MPG on the highway. Typical MPG around town is 19-20. How many other non-hybrid SUVs can do that? I have the 2.5T and though I was concerned a 5 cylinder SUV might be underpowered, I can report positively that it is not. My 18 year old son drives a Jeep Cherokee and he says the acceleration in my vehicle "scares him."

  My favorite car ever! - 2005 Volvo XC90
  By Gabriela - September 22 - 11:06 am

  I love the style, comfort, ride and safety of this vehicle. It hugs the road on a turn, is responsive, and has great pickup entering the freeway or passing.

  Volvo XC90 Great - 2005 Volvo XC90
  By DKJ - September 15 - 8:00 pm

  This is our second Volvo and it has been great. Feel very comfortable driving such a safe design vehicle. I used to drive American vehicles before and there is no comparison. The values and solid designs makes it so nice. Many compliments already. Kids love it. Sound system very nice. Wood steering worth it. Adds some elegance. Fuel mileage really is just like other SUVs and better than some.

  S80 to an XC90 - 2005 Volvo XC90
  By MIKE - June 24 - 9:23 pm

  I traded my S80 T-6 for an XC90 T-6. the XC90 is easier to get into due to the seat height, which i like. It drives very well but is some what sluggish compared to the S80 T6. The interior is very nice and comfortable. I never have figured out the radio, I guess I need a teenager. A simple radio would be nice. Gas... boy it does like gas. My S80 T-6 got 26 mpg the Xc90 does good to get 18 mpg on the highway and about 14 mpg in town
