Thanks for the "heads up", I was not aware of that. For those who did not have the chance to read this article; you missed nothing. The last line of this article, “There is no replacement for displacement”, sums up why General Motors should have never purchased Saab in the first place with that mentality. Sounds like they are blaming the cheap price of gas on not realizing that turbo chargers work best on 2 liter, 4 cylinder engines, as opposed to the 8 cylinder gas guzzlers of the 1980's. That's what happens when you are too big to fail.
Thanks again for the NYT tip, Take Care.
