    HISTORY..3 OWNERS TOTAL. 1ST OWNER LEASED IT AND THEN BOUGHT IT AS I WAS TOLD BY THE SECOND OWNER WHO WAS AS CRITICAL AS I AM ON WHERE HIS CARS CAME FROM. THE SECOND OWNER WAS ALSO A CAR ENTHUSIAST WHO HAD A FEW LUXURY CARS AND I PUCHASED THE AERO FROM HIM PRIVATE PARTY 8/2012. I WOULD NOT BE SELLING THIS IF I WAS ABLE TO PUCHASE A SECOND HOME WITHOUT 30% DOWN.   I REALLY TOOK CARE OF THE TRUCK AND WENT WAY OUT OF MY WAY TO FIND IT A YEAR AGO. THE MILES I PUT ON IT WERE MAINLY HIGHWAY TO TN. AND FL.

    WHAT MAKES THIS TRUCK AWESOME.. I HAVE ONLY CHANGED A FEW THINGS AND I HOPE THE NEXT OWNER CAN APPRECIATE. THE TAIL LIGHTS ARE ACTUALLY FROM A BUICK RAINER...I JUST DID NOT CARE FOR THE CLEAR EURO LIGHTS(WHICH ARE IN PERECT SHAPE BOXED UP INCLUDED WITH TRUCK).   K&N INTAKE BECAUSE I LOVE THE DEEP SOUND IT ADDS CONSIDERING I DID NOT WANT TO LOSE THE FACTORY EXHAUST IN CASE OF A HIGHWAY DROWN...SOUNDS NICE THE WAY IT IS!   PARROT BLUETOOTH  HANDS FREE PHONE WAS PRO INSTALLED.

What brands have Saab owners defected to? Polk investigates

Sun, 02 Sep 2012

When a brand goes belly-up, it's natural for analysts to wonder where that brand's consumers will turn. General Motors has mothballed more car brands the last decade than most other automakers' have in their entire portfolios, so "Where did [insert brand here] buyers go?" has been a common question asked of The General. According to reports, it didn't do so well at retaining Oldsmobile owners (who supposedly went to Hyundai), or Hummer and Saturn buyers, but did get some return love from Pontiac owners.
A consultant with Polk has turned the loyalty lens on Saab. The Polk Disposal Loyalty Methodology tracks owners selling vehicles within six months of buying a new one. In 2010 and 2011, Polk found that when Saab died, owners went right up the middle of the mainstream to Honda. It was close, though, with just 0.2 percent separating Honda from number two Volkswagen. Audi comes in third.
After that it's back to the masses with Toyota, Chevrolet and Ford trumping import luxury brands. And if you combine all of the General Motors brands that Saab owners have migrated to, GM more than doubles Honda with a 15.2-percent share, so all the love is not lost.

Saab 900 SPG is the latest Petrolicious love story

Thu, 03 Oct 2013

The latest video from the crew at Petrolicious covers one funky Swede - a 1989 Saab 900 SPG. Produced from 1978 to 1998, the 900 enjoyed a long history, and thanks to its iconic look, it's quickly becoming a modern classic for the off-kilter car enthusiast. The SPG, short for Special Performance Group, makes this a particularly rare find, with owner Jordan Melville saying, "I didn't even realize what I had at the time."
Melville gives a rundown of his life with the 900 and his passion for Saab overall, even reflecting on that dark day that saw the Swedish brand closed its doors. As always, the videography is excellent and the story is intriguing in this latest video from Petrolicious. You can view the entire video down below.

First test drive shows promise of Saab 9-3 EV

Tue, Sep 16 2014

We can't read Swedish, so when it comes to a first-drive review of a Saab 9-3 electric-vehicle prototype, we'll trust Inside EVs' translation of a write-up from Swedish automotive publication Elbilen i Sverige. And it's a decent one. The write-up, that is. The translation, too, we hope. Taken to the test track, the Saab was found to be quieter than a Tesla Model S and had the stability commensurate for a car that tipped the scales at about 4,000 pounds. The sedan accelerated from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 10 seconds, though the goal is to bring that time down to 8.5 seconds. The prototype also uses a 37-kWh prototype battery made by China-based Kai Johan Jiang Annual National Modern Energy Holdings that should be good for over 180 miles (and there's room for a bigger pack in the car, apparently). The 9-3's electric motor will be able to deliver 200 horsepower but, for testing purposes, it was limited to about 140 horsepower. The overall impression was that the car is not yet ready for prime time, but has a lot of promise. When prototype becomes production is the real question, given the financial condition of Saab parent National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS). The company acquired the brand in 2012 and started making cars at Saab's Trollhattan plant in Sweden last year, but production stopped in May because of cash-flow issues. Late last month, Swedish courts denied NEVS protection from its creditors, so the company is now looking to restructure.
