Yea, it seems that i must have had bad luck, cost most everyone else who 
has owned a saturn raves about them.  For me the saturn i owned was the 
last in a long line of disapointing american cars.  i tried them all, 
fords, plymouth, chevy, buick.  all of them sucked in one way or 
another.  i've given up on american cars, and i'm much happier now.
