Cross country or cross-country may refer to:
A station wagon, also called an estate car, estate wagon, or simply wagon, is an automotive body-style variant of a sedan/saloon with its roof extended rearward over a shared passenger/cargo volume with access at the back via a third or fifth door (the liftgate or tailgate), instead of a trunk lid. The body style transforms a standard three-box design into a two-box design — to include an A, B, and C-pillar, as well as a D-pillar. Station wagons can flexibly reconfigure their interior volume via fold-down rear seats to prioritize either passenger or cargo volume.
The American Heritage Dictionary defines a station wagon as "an automobile with one or more rows of folding or removable seats behind the driver and no luggage compartment but an area behind the seats into which suitcases, parcels, etc., can be loaded through a tailgate."
When a model range includes multiple body styles, such as sedan, hatchback and station wagon, the models typically share their platform, drivetrain and bodywork forward of the A-pillar. In 1969, Popular Mechanics said, "Station wagon-style ... follows that of the production sedan of which it is the counterpart. Most are on the same wheelbase, offer the same transmission and engine options, and the same comfort and convenience options."
Volvo V90在外觀車頭造型部份與S90幾近相同,但源自「Estate Concept」的車尾設計使得V90的層次更加分明,再加上如扳手的L型LED尾燈造型,以及雙邊雙出的排氣管設定,讓V90呈現前衛、質感兼具的新樣貌。而最具家族代表性的「雷神之槌」LED頭燈組,同樣也能在新車上看到! 內在美的鋪陳,V90使用和S90相同的駕駛艙格局,大量運用原木、金屬以及皮革進行妝點,搭配上大尺吋的直式觸控螢幕,在享受科技的同時,更多了一點豪華的的氛圍。在機能性的表現,標準的行李廂置物空間為560L,如進一步的利用6/4分離傾倒的後座椅背,可讓行李箱容積擴充至1,526L。Volvo引以為傲的高科技輔助系統當然也不會漏掉,新車標配了IntelliSafe安全防護系統、CitySafety、主動巡航系統、車道偏移警以及衝出路面防護等等,另外Volvo專精研發的半自動駕駛技術Pilot Assist II,也將在高階車款上一併搭載。 更多影片在Go車誌官網: http://www.buycartv.com/
The Volvo V90 estate is the upmarket replacement for the old Volvo V70 and reasserts Volvo’s claim to be the go-to manufacturer if you’re after a load-lugging estate car. With the V90, Volvo has a genuine rival to the likes of the BMW 5 Series Touring and Audi A6 Avant, with a beautifully-finished interior, superb practicality and a range of efficient engines. While the BMW and the Audi might be the top choices if you’re after a sporty drive, the Volvo is superb if you want something comfortable and understated.

The big Volvo estate is back. The Volvo V90 is the second car in Volvo's resurgence and it's the first time in decades, Volvo says, that it has had a car capable of taking on and beating the Audi A6, BMW 5-Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class. Subscribe to Autocar now: http://smarturl.it/autocar The V90 follows the hugely likeable XC90 of last year and is built on the same chassis architecture. It also uses the same powertrains, and here we test the V90 in 2.0-litre D5 diesel form, with 232bhp and all-wheel drive. What do you think of the Volvo V90? Let us know in the comments below!

The V90 feels everything a premium estate should be - a refined cruiser, with a comfortable, plush cabin and a hefty load space. It feels odd to say this about a big Volvo wagon, but those who are after ultimate boot size will look elsewhere. For everyone else after an upmarket load-lugger, the V90 totally merits a place on your shortlist. James Batchelor reviews the new Volvo V90 estate in sunny Spain!

Underneath a big clock
At the corner of 5th Avenue and 22nd Street
I stood and waited for a girl I knew
At the spot where we agreed to meet
It was four minutes of two
At four of two, I stood waiting for the girl
I was four minutes early for the date we had planned
I was planning to say I was in love with her
Just as soon as she showed for a two o'clock date
And the clock said four of two
At four of two, I was staring into space
She was not yet late, according to the clock
I was feeling nervous so I kept looking up
At the clock sticking out of the side of the building
And it still said four of two
At four of two, I began to feel tired
And I rubbed my eyes, and again I checked the time
It seemed as if the sky was growing dark
But I felt reassured when I looked at the clock
And it still said four of two
I lay my head down on the sidewalk
So in case she were coming I would have a better view
But no one was there so I stretched out
And closed my eyes for a second or two
It was four minutes of two
At once I awoke to a futuristic world
There were flying cars and gigantic metal bugs
I'd grown a beard, it was long and white
But I knew that the girl would be coming very soon
For though everything had changed, there was still that clock
