Guess Ford learned all they needed to learn from Volvo about saftey and felt yes about time to find a new home for Volvo. Few years back , I wouldve disagreed with this decision completely. But I have full faith in Alan Mullaly , as this guy is the genius that saved Ford's ass ,when he left Boeing and took over Ford Motor Company .

I thought Volvo was defunct as of at least 3 or 4 years ago. Shows what I know about cars.

Did u get a nice BJ in it or what ?! ;)

We had about 50 Jags at our dealership when we bought a Jag dealer that went out of business. While the seats were nice and comfy , the ride itself wasn't at all the luxury ride I was expecting.
Overall great but overpriced cars with many mechanical issues.
They are totally worthless now since the Indian company TaTa bought them from Ford.
