Bought a 2017 LX570 Yesterday!
Have been following this 2017 LX570 at a local dealership for a couple months now and decided to see what they would offer me for my 2017 Volvo XC90 Inscription.
The LX was in the color spec (Blue/Cabernet) and mileage/condition we were looking for so we made the trade and I brought this sexy beast home last night!
36k miles, all the extras. One owner bought locally by a older woman that commuted to her restaurants in it. Need to get the credit card key that the original owner couldnt find but other than that, it’ll make a great companion to our 2016 GX460 that we bought new.
This will now be my wife’s truck and the GX is going to get a little talker and see a ton more miles and use
At its current age/mileage I plan to do a full fluid service. As it has some factory warranty left based on its in-service date so I’ll have my local dealership have a poke around for fun.
Very excited

The only issue I had was the front brake pads would knock when reversing and turning out of a parking space. Dealership reshimmed them and the noise went away.
The infotainment would take a while to load when starting the car. Starting the car and throwing it in reverse, the reverse camera would not come on until a couple moments later. Quirky.
Overall the truck was comfy. Inscription leather was amazing over base. Bowers and Wilkins sound was something else! Real theater quality stuff.
Glad I got to experience it but it was too soft overall and ultimately, the supercharged/turbo motor was not something I was going to keep long term. I gave it 3 years in the beginning, kept it for 6 months because this LX became available and the deal was right. You only live once and weve been drooling over this spec for years.

Granted I only had my Volvo for ~6 months but I managed to put over 10k miles on it in that time.
