Saab moments:
1) Driving back to college in Gettysburg PA from Latham NY along the wonderful but desolate Rt 88 in a blinding snowstorm. In whiteout conditions, all I can see is the guardrail along the side of the road. With just regular all-season tires, the 1980 99 GLi motors right along as if the road conditions were absolutely normal. Got back safe and sound and thanking Swedish engineers.
2) Another snow story - leaving Erie PA after a biz trip. Lake effect snowstorm hits while on the way back. Driving down a hill on the highway, a tractor trailer jackknifes in my rear view mirror, hits me from behind, spins me twice, bounces the 1988 900 S off the cement guard rail, across the two lanes and into the ditch. Rear axle is snapped, but I open the door and get out completely uninjured. Once again, thanking Swedish engineers.
