While I agree that an SUV is a waste of steel, you'll never fit 6 - 7 folks with luggage in a Saab wagon -- or many other wagons even if equipped with the '3rd seat' (which I don't believe Saab offers, or do they?). So for me, it's the Saab for 5 or less, and the Grand Caravan for people or cargo intensive needs. And I would think my 7 folks with luggage driving in a single minivan (17/23 mpg, car chasis) will still be more efficient than taking two Saabs! And I'm secure enough in my coolness to be able to unabashedly drive my minivan, and actually enjoy it (of course more people KNOW I'm cool when I'm passing them in my 9-5, though!)
