I just drove my '87 900s 5 spd with 144,000 miles across the entire country (3476 miles) with the car fully loaded (truthfully it was overloaded, including the front passenger seat, with everything I could get in it) and two bikes and a 17ft kayak on top. I had not a single problem. I crossed the Great Plains and various deserts in the middle of summer, climbed over 10000 ft mountain passes, and absolutely nothing went wrong. I had plenty of power, and even got somewhere between 23-30 mpg!
I wold have a knowledeable Saab mechanic give it a good once over, then hit the road! I had the Swedish Garage in NC look mine over and they are an absolutely great shop.
