I voted with my wallet!
After 4 Volvo's since 1987 and three XC70's, the XC70 platform is positively ancient.
I test drove a new XC90 and liked the ride better in our 2011 XC70.
The dismal gas mileage of the T6 was worse than our 2011 XC70!
The premium for the T8 was crazy, no way you recoup the cost.
I ordered an AWD Porsche 911 C4 to replace my 2003 XC70.
Different cars, I know. but the winters here in Wisconsin have gotten much warmer in the last 40 years and our Township now has it's own plows so we don't get plowed by the coutry once perday whether we need it or not!
The C4 can handle 3"-4" of snow and after that we don't go out anyway.
Maybe down the road when a new XC wagon with good gas mileage becomes available, we will replace the 2011 XC70?
Maybe!
I'm given Cayenne's for loaners so I have a good idea of the comparison to the new XC90.
There are plenty of good vehicles, safe, on the road today.-Richard
