    I would be rocking one of these if it wasn't for the fact that the headrest cuts right across my shoulder blades.

    I thought Stu was ending up with it?

    Or was that only temporary.

    I do remember not being able to figure out how to get the climate control to cool me down in the (admittedly short) time that I was riding around in it. Other than that, though, it was a nice ride. I actually also really like the whole "floating center stack" thing that Volvo does. A, it is a nice piece of design, and B, it's functional, because you end up with the extra storage space behind it, as well.
