i guess i'm as old fashioned as one can get (still no cell phone), but i still prefer rear wheel drive with a stick, although my '90 760 wagon has an auto tranny (couldn't find a stick). all i hear from my wrong wheel drive friends is how great fwd is on hills in snow. seems to me if you keep decent radials on your rear wheel drive volvo, you should be fine (i have backed up a hill or two on occasion). nobody listens to me when i tell them that pretty much any rwd volvo with around 100k mi is among the best values in the used car market today. i also think it would be quite competitive with most new cars selling for $2ok or so.
