Just got back from our first long road trip in the 2003 9-5 Linear Sportwagon. Fort Wayne, Indiana to Breckenridge, Colorado. Roughly 2,500 miles round trip. It is an awesome road car! Here are my observations:
1. Rock solid at high speed
2. Turbo power in the mountains was unbelievable! I had no idea how good that would be.
3. Freezing wife closed passenger side vents... cooked kids in the back with too much heat. Only by reading this board did I understand what was going on and make appropriate adjustments.
4. Dean - Kansas is a friggin' long state to drive across!
5. Xenon lights are fantastic on dark roads
6. Most comfortable seats I have ever had for a long trip
7. I love this car!
Happy Saabing and Happy New Year everyone!
Dennis
