I did not say that all Saab-drivers are evil and wicked creatures. I'm sure this was quite obvious to other readers. What I said was that it seemed that I'd seen enough instances recently of Saab tailgaters (specifically late-model Saab convertible drivers), out of proportion to their numbers in this area, that I felt I should say something. Indeed, tailgating pisses me off so much that it is possible that I simply grasped at a few instances of Saab tailgating to have an excuse to jump into the topoic. It should possibly be more of a general driving topic. JL Maybe you drive like a pussy. If you drive slower than the speed limit or seem to not be paying attention to the flow of traffic maybe you deserve to be harassed. God knows the driving tests in most if not all staes do nothing to prepare the average driver for what lies ahead on the highway. Do you know what your car can and cannot do? Probably not. This is where Saab drivers are diferent. We KNOW what our cars can do. I'll admit I've tailgated people, but only because of someone hanging in the left lane or doing something else equally annoying. BTW, I drive a late model convertible. Duane
