I own a 2001 S60 T5 manual. Had a few recent problems where I had to change the CEM and starter. Very pricy. Never had issues with the ETV module. Looking at a 1 owner 2004 XC90. After reading through some of the threads, I'm curious if anyone else has compared these two cars. I live in southern Minnesota, so snow is an issue. My S60 does pretty well in the winter, but not great. The threads on problems getting into driveways worries me about the ability for the XC90 to drive in MN winter weather. I also can't put a hitch on my S60 (also don't want to with the clutch). XC90 has more room, hitch capabilities and more convenient having 2 boys and 2 little dogs.

I'm on the fence. Any experiences or stories you wish to share? Anyone compared these two makes and models?

Thanks.

Buy the XC90 and give the S60 to your father.
