I am right there with Ken F. I made the switch from RWD to FWD. The XC is the first FWD (OK AWD) car that I've owned and it was a relatively easy transition. Then again I went from brick to brick (245 to V70). My father in-law is in your situation now. He started with an old PV, went through about four 200 series as his kids grew up, an 855 and now an '06 S60. It's my "grandfather in-law's" 245 that got me thinking Swedish. Now I'm not sure that I'll go any other way. With three wagons now it'll be hard to get rid of them all. If Volvo ever jumps on the American bandwagon and makes a mini-van then it's all over. It will truly be Volvo for life.
