Does she need AWD?

In July, I purchased a FWD base 2012 XC70 for $29,500 - less $1000 loyalty bonus and $860 cash for the first three payments. I paid cash. I think that $27,700 was a real nice deal - we love it and its 5 year wear and tear warranty.

BTW - We test drove a turbo XC60 for about 100 miles - What a hoot!

The full torque comes on at 1500 RPM! Touch the pedal and GO!

I had to lock it in 1st gear in order to drive in stop and go traffic and parking lots - my wife hated the over run when taking a highway exit - it doesn't slow down - the ride is jiggly.

Plain Jane just soaks up pavement breaks and small holes with her relatively fat tires.
