which XC90 to get??
I'm having a minor dilemma here.
I am purchasing a XC90 T6..both are 2004's
One
55,500 Miles with no warranty
the other
76,000 Miles with a 100,000 Miles Volvo Certified Warranty.
Of course there is a price difference..but my main concern is resale.
We plan to keep this vehicle for about 3-4 months then sell it..is it going to be easier or harder to sell the higher mileage even though it has a warranty. I need to make up my mind before tomorrow. I need help !!

Not sure why someone would buy something like the XC90 just to sell in 3-4 months. I would have to consider the sales tax and title fees which are not recovered when re-sold. I would tend to look for something a bit less expensive to lower those cost or look into some kind of short term lease..... Just my .02....

if you are going to keep it for 3-4 months then I would go for the one with the warranty. Seeing as it is the T6 it will be easier to re sell with a warranty. I would love it if mine had a warranty still, it would be helping me out a lot right now.
why would you even bother with the hassle of this to only keep it for 3-4 months??

Buying a vehicle only to turn around and sell in in 3-4 months, it will be tough to sell it and make back the money you spend on acquiring the vehice. Vehicles always depreciate in value, to me the cost of buying a vehicle includes taxes, registration, insurance, not to mention my time. Also keep in mind 3-4 months from now will be summer when gas prices will be higher and suv sales will be worst than they are now.
Have you considered just renting a car.
