There's always a lemon in every line of cars. When I was in college,
one of the guys I envied drove around in a Volvo, so a few years later,
I had to have one. Well it had me. This was in the late 60's.
Sorry about your Saturn experience. I got mine used for a song
(relatively speaking), and it's been rock-solid.
All cars have amazing marketing - I'm amazed if anyone believes any of
it.
