My image of Volvo has been shattered ever since my aunt got a XC90 last year.

Other than it being confortable... the car is underpowered, under equipped, sucks gas like a mofo (17.5 L/100 mostly highway driving?!), sub par interior quality, zero driving dynamics, and a shitty AWD system that makes the car less stable in crazy snow that my RWD 325i. Plus she had several reliability issues. Considering the car costs only sligthly less than an X5/ML, it's a total POS in my eyes.

Anyhow, that's my rant. Volvo is "what happens when Ford messes with a company"... same for Jag. Thank the lord they sold Aston Martin.
