Would you trust your Saab..

Hi..
So, I've decided I really like the car (2008 9-3, 18000miles) but I do about 3-4 road trips a year where we go camping out in the middle of nowhere (10mile walk to nearest convenience store, no cell phones etc). The roads are dirt, but not rough, somewhat maintained.
My question is, should I be concerned about the 9-3 just dying in some place like this for no good reason? I've seen a few people post that theirs just died. I've never worried about being stranded somewhere like that with other vehicles I've owned (2004 Trooper, 2004 Montero, Mazda 3, Toyotas). Am I making a big deal about nothing in your opinions?
My other choice right now is a Ford Escape, which seems reliable but boring and not so comfortable.
