1st Gear

After having a '78 99 EMS and an '83 900 turbo in high school, I am trying to relive my golden years at the ripe age of 30 and I leased a manual '02 9-3. I love the car, BUT....I am realizing that rush hour is not conducive for a manual transmission especially when it feels like I am shifting in and out of 1st gear a million times a day. I didn't remember this on my old Saabs but my 1st gear seems to have no range at all. It seems like I have to shift to 2nd after going only 15mph and it is really annoying but I guess I will live with it. Does anyone else have any comments, good or bad, on 1st gear? I am completely satisfied with the other gears.
