I am on my second S60 and it is a FWD. We are considering a AWD car and I was wondering if the S60 AWD was as reliable as the FWD. If the reliability and milage decrease hits are too large, I may just look into winter tires. We live on the IL/WI border (below Madison, WI). Also, I looked into the XC90 (2004 - 5 cyl) AWD drive but the dealer service area said the seal of the shaft going to the rear fails often and costs $1000 to repair. Also thinking about an XC90 FWD - maybe better for the small 5 cyl anyway). Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks Greg
