I'm not a chevy guy, or saturn person.

I'm a firebreathin, screamin chicken, petal to the metal professional grade die hard. and by damnit, I want my RWD to screech the tires, and then pull into the trailer and hauled by the truck with three letters to its name.

EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jeezuz, why do we need Saturn? Saturn has SUPER LOW VOLUME compared to other divisions. They're not very profitable, and Saturn has no 'brand' image anymore since they make a big SUV and mid size car.
