Congratulations on your new acquisition, and a hardy second with regards to Matt at Boyd's Automotive. Regarding your trip home, should you decide to pickup and drive, I'd like to suggest some alternatives.
Of course, the most direct route is I-80. However, the only mountains you'll see are the Wasatch Front, as you leave Salt Lake City. Forty miles east and you head into the mind numbing rollercoaster that I-80 through Wyoming.
Alternately, taking US40 gives you mountains and desert, Dinosaur National Monument, Steamboat Springs, and Rocky Mountain National Park, before dropping down to I-25 and on your way home.
Lastly, by far the longest and undoubtedly the most scenic, driving south on I-15 to the western terminus of I-70, then east through the redrock desert of Central Utah, next climbing the western slope of the Rockies, over the Continental Divide (either by the Eisenhower Tunnel, highest in North America at 11,158 ft., or Loveland Pass at 11,990 ft.) before descending into Denver to hookup with I-25.
Whichever means you choose, I'm sure your trip will be a delight. How could it not? You're driving a SAAB!
