Timing belt at 70k and acc'y belt at 60k - SURVEY V70-XC70 1998

I find it quite annoying that the drive belt is due for replacement at 60k then needs to be removed again (at full labor cost) at 70k to do the timing belt.

Survey:

Anyone just do both belts at 60k? 65k? or push them both to 70k?

Seems to me that the money saved on labor would pay for the added cost of doing them both at 60k, no? I mean, what sense is there in waiting to 70k and doing paying the labor twice, essentially.

Thoughts?

Experiences from the pros?
