In terms of safety, MDX and XC90 are tied according to IIHS test, so I am not sure you can say one is better. In fact, Volvo is not the leader in any other category.....
 
Are you suggesting we go out and buy the MDX? May be I'll just do that, been car shopping for almost 4 months now. There are too many choices out there! Regards, - MS.

I am merely pointing out an incorrect statement, no need to act on impulse

I do not think that your statement is factually correct. There is more in safety than just the IIHS test. You should say - "MDX and XC90 got equal (similar) ratings in IIHS test". That would be factually correct.
 
Otherwise, it is just your opinion, and I beg to differ. Decades of safety leadership for Volvo still counts...

Agree,
And I do not have to repeat myself over many times. Please search the forum for my past postings. I have said enough on a subject.

Not sure if this is the right forum for this question. But I have a 2006 XC90 and I like to find out what would be a reasonable price for an extended warantee with 100K miles. What are the options out there? and what pricing are you seeing. thanks.

V8 for 40.6k by lkar

2007 V8 with no options other than metallic paint. MSRP of $47,595. Invoice $44,777.
 
Price not including TTL: $40,600 or about $40,980 with “doc fee.”
 
I got the sense that I could have worked a bit more and maybe gotten to about $40,500, give or take, including the doc fee. But I didn't want to pay for convenience, touring, climate or wood, and it was very tough to find a V8 without most of these options. I just wanted a stripped down V8 and it was the only one I could find in about a 1,000 mile radius, so I wasn’t too picky on getting that last $500 or so. Plus, it was midnight blue, which was my top choice.

Looking for a XC90 in the dallas area by berny1

I would appreciate if someone can share a good buying experience in the Dallas area, we are considering the Pilot, MDX, XC90, etc (so many options). I talked to Volvo of Richardson and the most they are willing to reduce the MSRP is 5K, do you guys suggest getting the extended warranty?, I heard the are not very reliable.
Thanks.

Hi berny1,
I am in the same boat, sailing around in the pool of all those choices. Can't comment on the Ext Warranty (I dont own one yet), but try talking to the Auto-flex leasing guys.
 
Per forum rules, I cannot give you a name, but here's a number - extension 1002 (in their Richardson office). That guy claims to get some mfr discount of $8000, and offered me $11K off MSRP for any XC-90. Just like you, I am worried about the reliability issues, and am thinking about the MDX. What did you think about the Pilot? For me,
 
+: shift lever on steering column, more space, 8-seater, less $$$
-: Small (16") wheels, no Xenon HID lights, boxy looks, not so good handling
 
Good luck with your purchase, and let us know how it goes - MS.
