I guess post volvo's new ownership (mid 2000's) they are terrible. My dad's friends are mechanics and such and they said people blow 1000's at a time on them. The thing that made me sceptical is that I know that so many people love them! Apparently, from what I have noticed, the people who love them either buy them brand new and keep them for 2 years or have them on lease so that they bypass all the problems that happen once they get a bit older. I know that I have an older volvo and in the last 6 months, i've spent well over $2,500 on it. Seriously though, if I could get/ afford one of the xc90's I would still totally take one!!! I just keep telling myself that it will cost alot of money on maintenance and I dont really have the money to do that.Belle- Pink Cupcakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08950857427175536999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7705824814279762389.post-7164439280866149132009-07-08T14:54:49.399-04:002009-07-08T14:54:49.399-04:00I have paid more to get my car fixed already than ...I have paid more to get my car fixed already than I paid for the car 5 years ago!

Although I have been debating between the xc90 and the xc60, their new crossover. We shall see!

I have a recommendation for a fantastic mechanic if you ever need one. He has bought tire wholesale from this man in Pooler that owns a Goodyear Tire place and he gets them for a lot cheaper. I got 4 tires for $485 including everything they have to do. <br /><br />I have no idea where you take your car to get the oil change and all, but if you go to Savannah Tire you might want to be careful. I went there originally to get the oil changed and they pointed out that I needed about $2000 in repairs. When I took it to this mechanic for a second look he said they were straight lying to me and that what they said was wrong wasn't at all. <br /><br />I had no idea that the Volvo XC90 was expensive to keep up! I was planning on getting one when I graduated and now I may not want one. Premium gas and $230 oil changes...YIKES!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00123779237747469831noreply@blogger.com
