There are many milestones in your life. Graduation, wedding days, children being born, a new car, walking in to Costco for the first time, the list goes on and on. At Volvo of Tucson, we'd like to talk about the latter two, because purchasing a new Volvo and having a Costco membership is something you're going to want to consider after hearing about the latest promotion.

All us of us at Volvo of Tucson have hoped for some time now that Volvo would be bringing the V-Series wagons back to North America . In 2010 after the series was discontinued in America, the family of new Volvo vehicles was missing a true wagon.

Being able to traverse a wide range of terrains shouldn't have to mean sacrificing anything in the way of luxury. That's the idea behind the Volvo XC60, and it's proven to be quite popular with drivers in the greater Tucson area. So when details regarding the redesigned 2014 version finally surfaced online, Volvo of Tucson knew you'd want to be the first to hear them.

Distracted driving is a serious issue. A car can be a very dangerous machine, especially when the person operating it isn't paying attention to the road. To combat this, many automotive manufacturers are beginning to integrate technology into their vehicles so drivers can keep their eyes on the road and still use their phones at the same time. This is a great start to the solution but Volvo thinks it can still be too tempting for drivers to try and send a quick text or check their messages.

So what is there to do? You simply have to remove…

There a countless ways to customize the new Volvo models Volvo of Tucson offers at 831 W. Wetmore Road Tucson,  AZ 85705. And while our on-site Volvo parts know nearly all of them, they're still impressed by the occasional third-party creation.

Case in point: one dealership in Belgium recently modified one of the rarer Volvo models of yesteryear to give it a fresh kick of utility.  To be more specific, its employees chopped the roof off of a Volvo 850 T-5R in order to turn into a pickup ute.

While the conversion alone is impressive, the fact that it…

Have you been lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the Volvo S60 Concept? The stylish luxurious, sporty vehicle reportedly costs around $300,000 and was built as a one-off for a very special Volvo customer. However, it seems that brand could make the vehicle much more than a one-time project. It recently brought the vehicle to the Los Angeles Auto Show- a move that makes fans wonder if the brand is gauging consumer response to the vehicle, which it could one day take to mass production.
