My everyday driver is a 2022 Volvo XC60. I haven’t had many issues with it in the years I have driven it, and luckily, even with the common bugs, my Google-based infotainment system has generally worked decently through the years and updates. But this week, I am on vacation and I am driving a rented Hyundai Palisade. In size, it is probably more comparable to an XC90. But it’s the infotainment system I want to talk about. It just works better. Everything works better. The apps are seamless. It never bugs out or stalls. The switches between apps are smooth and fast and everything easily fits on the screen. The driving safety features (lane assist, active cruise, warnings, cameras, etc.) are all better. Now that’s just one man’s opinion, but it’s honest. And the thing that makes me kind of angry about it is that a Hyundai Palisade costs about $20,000 less brand new in 2026 than I paid for my XC60 in 2022. Of course I know that a car is not just its infotainment system, and this is certainly not an endorsement of the Hyundai Palisade as a car. I also have no idea what the Hyundai infotainment was like in 2022, so I may be comparing apples to AI here, but after driving one, I can really see why people who switch to Volvo from other brands have such an issue with the infotainment and user interface.

Hi all. Just wanted to share a very recent positive TOW delivery experience with Steve for people that may be sweating out deliveries since the FedEx crackdown in China. I originally had an order that was supposed to be shipped through FedEx. Steve changed my delivery method to USPS after the crackdown. From receipt of my new tracking number to delivery at my location in the US, total time was 12 days. No customs issues. Obviously, your TD and experience may vary greatly from this, but just wanted to share something pretty positive. Good luck out there!
