Yes... my wife thinks that I am "obsessed" with Saabs.
I am looking to replace my C900 with a 9-5 and she said to me last night "well, I hope you'll be happy. I can understand that you want a car that makes you feel young and that you have more money than you really do and that gives you some kind of status. But you are obsessed, and I hope someday you'll grow up and get over it. BTW, a friend got a Saturn SUV, and that is what you should get instead of a Saab".
HUH???? My thoughts were exactly opposite... my C900 has 150K miles on it, it is a 3 door, we have three children, almost teenagers, it is time to get a bigger car. I know all about Saabs, and the 9-5 rates very highly. A Saturn??? Especially that really ugly SUV????? No way!
But those points are met with a dead stare and the comment "you're just like your mother... can't hold onto a dime you save!".
Now I do all my own work on the cars, I am looking at a used 9-5, not a $38K new one. But it doesn't matter. I am 'obsessed'! 8-)
However, I'd have to pry her dying fingers from her Volvo 940 Turbo wagon to drive it!
