it also appears that the general public doesn't care at all about this car.
 
Dealers don't either. Only GM Corporate cares about it.
 
It actually looks OK, but I wouldn't pay $40,000 for it. I'd pay maybe $31-$33,000 tops. Plus since its truck-based, and only seats five, its off my list. (not too worried about the truck based part, but combine that with relatively low MPG numbers, and well... might as well get the Odyssey)

I think this vehicle will be a failure. Haven't seen any on the road and one local dealer only has 1. I own a 9.5 and just leased a new Freestyle (after considering Pilot and XC90). I wanted to consider this vehicle but given its configuration (as you mention truck based and no 3rd seat, I have three kdis) I didn't. I can't wait any longer for Saab to get with the progam. Where does this truck fit in the market - most others have 3rd seat option?
 
My whole feeling on this is that GM stopped selling Izuzu in Canada and I think given the lack of attention the dealers give Saab, I think they will be next - and that is unfortunate!

My first impression was that this vehicle was sort of a placeholder pending the 9-6. See Saab 9-6 (based off Subaru B9 Tribeca).

Same here. I need something with room for 7 when relatives visit so we can all be in 1 car.
 
I'm fine with the truck based thing. I just need 3 rows of seats and good MPG.
 
The 9-6X would have solved the problem, but GM is calling it quits and the 9-6X was aborted.
 
I would have loved to own a Saab 3 row crossover.
 
I'll be looking at a minivan/Freestyle/Pilot/ possibly XC90 then.
 
Guess we're in the same boat. I've never owned a Saab before, but I like them, and so does my son. We'd hate to see Saab die.

You have to watch the 3 row vehicles to make sure row 3 can actually hold adults. Make sure you climb back there and see with rows 1 and 2 in a normal position.

Most of the times I'll put the kids/teens back there and have the adults sitting towards the front.
 
Although in my Odyssey its not really a problem...

No one has submitted a rating or Consumer Review either (link at the top). It's on the chopping block in mid-2007 - better go buy one since it's going to be a rare bird.

Are the forums not as active as they have been in the past? It seems to me that there are less posts than there used to be. Either that or the topics that I track have lost some enthusiasm.
