Saab Loaner Car Program curtailed?

I was dropping my wife's 2000 9-5 wagon off for service because it has smoke on startup again, and received a 1994 9000 as a loaner. I was a bit surprised and disappointed, since the rear seatbelts didnt even have the child safety locks on them and I dont have the claspes you are supposed to use in place of them.
The dealer informed me that Saab has greatly cut back the Saab new-car loaner program. I was told that this dealer only gets 4 new Saab loaners and can only put 3000 miles on them and then has to return them. If they hit 3000 miles before the dealer is due to get new loaners, then they must go without. Has anyone else heard this or noticed a drop in actual new Saabs as loaners? I am not sure I believe this story. In the past, this dealer usually gave me a new Saab as a car.
If it is true, its disappointing. I am in the market for a new car and this is another mark, albeit slight, against Saab for me.
