No snow... that's coming just in time for me to try and fly out of here. 2 Weeks driving a mixture of a Saab 9-5 Turbo and some post 2000 FWD automatic Volvo has been torture.
I miss the 8, but the amount of torque that Saab has at low RPM's is downright embarrassing. At 1500rpm in 5th gear you're going maybe 35mph and that's just fine, little to no lugging. I wouldn't merge onto the highway like that but if it's a regular surface road... yah, you can cruise around like that just fine...
Oh, and, I filled it up the other day:
