Subject: 9-5 Wagon?


It's time for a new wagon. My '91 FWD Camry has 207k miles and has seen better days. Before that I had an '82 FWD Subaru GL that I put 225k on. I live in the mountains of Colorado and have gotten by with the FWD, but there have been times when I've thought that the next car I own will have to have AWD. But the Outbacks leave me cold. The four is underpowered, as is the six with just a four speed auto. I drove the Audi Allroad, which was really fun, but the price and the abysmal mileage eliminate that one. I think the Saab is a great car, fun to drive, good cargo space, good mileage, turbos seem to work well for the mountains (besides, I like quirky); and it's at a great price right now. My only hesitation is the FWD, and perhaps the clearance. Any thoughts from anyone who drives one in the mountains, in the snow, lousy dirt roads, etc? Any helpful thoughts will be appreciated. Thanks Bill
