Became Aero owner on a road trip!

Finally owner of a 04 95 Aero, and wow that car is devious! You'll be cruising at 95 before you know it and it pulls harder than my ol d93 9000 CSE at hiway speeds (ofcourse). First week of ownerskip has been VERY nice. Now here's the story.
Once upon a time, Leif Aake set out on a road trip in his somethat untrustworthy 9000 CSE. There were two days of highway driving bliss until the drive belt idler pulleys seized and disintegrated in the middle of the midwest over 1000 miles from home, due to Leif's inability to torque the pulley bolts correctly. Luckily, this was near an exit and lo and behold next to the only SAAB dealer in the middel of the state, and with a 04 AERO with a huge discount tacked onto it sitting on the lot. Long story short. Old car breaks down in town with SAAB dealer. Old car has possible blown head gasket in addition to drive belt and pulley failure, and being a lemon on top of that. Dealer takes old car in trade on 04 Aero. Leif gets Sentronic, Ventilated seats and Xenon lights for a CRAZY discount. The road trip continues!
Make any sense?
Inte vet jag.
Leif
