Driving a Volvo XC60 got us thinking and we decided that it would be entertaining to link political movements with vehicles.
Generally, auto enthusiasts like Europe just fine. We love Germany's autobahn, go crazy over the generally unpatrolled back roads of Spain, dream of mountain passes through the Alps, and lust over those cars we can't get on this side of the Atlantic. However, beyond some Fiats, it seems the next big thing we're likely to get from Europe is the S-word; socialism. How do we know? We've just driven the 2010 Volvo XC60, the Swedes' all-new crossover.

You could nearly call the Volvo XC90 R-Design a sled. They both amount to entertaining cold-weather conveyance, but a sled's a primitive contraption that slides over snow and hopefully goes in a straight line with little to no control. Full story...

The Jolliest of Fat Guys turns out to be surprisingly athletic.
I wish I liked the idea of crossover vehicles more. Then I'd have only nice things to say about the new Volvo XC60, which I'm thinking is probably the best of the not-so-big, not-so-small, near-luxury crossovers. It's an important segment in today's depressed market in that it's not dying outright, although sometimes I wish it would.
