How I evaded the potent attack of a wild skunk thanks to my 2.0 turbo charged 1999 Saab 9-3
A few miles from home, on a winding narrow road, my Saab rescued me from disaster. A friend an I were returning from a beer run at the local convience store. Approaching his house, I slowed as I noticed something in road ahead....it appeared to be some sort of small furry woodland creature...as we neared, it became obvious the mammal was no harmless rodent...shimmering in the moonlight, the black and white fur could mean only one thiing...we were about to be sprayed...the wild and angry beast raised its tail...like a deer in headlights, my friend and i froze, but the saab didn't....as if it was being controlled by the car itself, my foot reacted, instinctively, i took advantage of the 185 hp turbo charged 4 cylinder engine...like a massive super nova waiting for the perfect moment to expand.....the engine produced a torque that i have never seen before....our heads hit the seat rests with a concussive force(thanks to saabs innovated head rests we experienced no whiplash)....before the skunks brain had time to trigger adrenal activity and release its potent mist, it was swallowed by a cloud of rock and gravel ...we escaped unscathed, thanks to the remarkable engineers in Trollhattan, Sweden. Makers of the 1999 Saab 9-3 Turbo 5dr Hatckback..Welcome to the state of independence, Welcome to SAAB.
