One of the curious offspring of Ford's purchase of Volvo is the Taurus X (formerly the Freestyle). It shares the same basic design as the XC90 although it has been stretched enough to give it a decent 3rd seat and storage. It is much less expensive than the Volvo and much more reliable.
It's main draw back is that it is not nearly as attractive as the XC90.
I have a Freestyle and it has been a very good car and completely reliable.

I have been eyeing the Freestyles and like them. Did the Freestyles ever have side curtain airbags or only the Taurus X?
Also, what is your MPG like?
