    I did look at the Saab as well - I love the 4.2 inline tho so was looking to stay away from the V8. The 4.2 still has lots of get up! It is rare to see the 9-7X which is a plus. However, I wanted to have the low range option (have not used it yet) & the TB has 2WD, part-time AWD, 4WD, 4-Low but the Saab is just AWD. Plus I only spent $5500 on the TB top-o-line LTZ with sunroof, heated power leather, & 5 cup holders! Haha

    The 9-7x still has cup holder issues...lol
    One on the console and one on the dash that is a joke. Both are only suited for 12oz cans.

    Parts are hard to come by? WHAT parts EXACTLY? Other than body parts, almost all "service items" are available - either brand new (aftermarket), used, or OEM. Sure, you might have to wait even a couple weeks to source them/get them; that's NO different than almost ANY 13 year old vehicle that's not a Chevrolet or a Ford!

    Sorry, but mine has been my DD for going on 5 years/50K miles now; it's been THE most reliable vehicle of the 24 vehicles I've owned in my life by FAR! And every time I think about replacing it with another SUV and do a "door count" (with the exception of the Range Rover Evoque) I come up with FOUR; not TWO...

    Now pardon me while I get in my Vehicross and drive it 120 miles today...
