It's NOT a Ford! V70-XC70

The P2 platform V70 may be about the last Volvo without Ford's fingerprints all over it.

I LOVE my Volvo and I LIKE my Hondas but I don't think the Volvo would be worth the 3 1/2" stack of service receipts to most normal people.

Those jump seats are downright silly, BTW, we ordered them on my wife's old car and they were used, maybe, TWICE over 180,000 miles. The third row seats in the Oddy are real seats and get used. BTW, with 255HP there are a LOT of much sportier cars that the Oddy will out-drag out of the toll booths!
