Just did a 760 total mile one day trip (to see Paul Mc Cartney!!). The SAAB ran very well I drove the vast majority of the trip w/ the cruze control set at 85 mph...(this was on 5 fwy in the center of California).
I did also have about an hour of 90-95 on the cruize control.
I did do a several runs up to 135 mph...STABLE ! A Mercedes 600 AMG showed me who is boss though: he acceleralated from 100 to something really fast like I was standing still.
The ARC's stereo kicks, the seats very comfy... even small things like the high powered window washers and the cooled glove box make the car so nice for a long drive.
The cool thing is even with this spirting driving and about 60 miles of traffic jam I got 26.8 mpg--I'm very happy :)
A good day of SAABing. Oh yeah, Paul McCartney was a 10 out of 10.
