- Biography:
- I was born and grew up in the Netherlands. I studied in the USA in 1990 and moved there permanently in 1994 when I was 27. I have mostly lived in Michigan but also in Southern California for a few years.
My advanced education started in The Netherlands at a private automotive college where I studied automotive technology, marketing and management. After graduation, I continued my study at Northwood University in Midland, Michigan for one year. I graduated with a BBA degree in Automotive Marketing and Management in 1990.
I have worked in Information Technology for most of the time but am anxious to switch career and do something in the automotive business.
I got interested in Saab in 2006 when I was living in California at the time. I never really paid any attention to the brand before and it has been a very interesting ride since I took my first test drive in a Saab 9-3.

Wilderness State Park, Michigan
The Saab 9-4X weighs a hefty 4,400 lbs with the 3.0i engine. The Aero is even heavier and can tip the scale up to 4,700 pounds. I owned a 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer for a couple of years and it had the typical ride of an SUV. Heavy, pretty slow, vague steering,

Interior
No matter how good the exterior looks, it is inside where we spend most of our time. The interior of the 9-4X is very similar to the current 9-5 in design. While I have sat in the new 9-5 many times, I have never actually driven on. Coming from the first generation 9-5, the 9-4X feels a bit large inside at first. I had to get

I wasn't planning on buying a Saab 9-4X. Seriously! I made the mistake of visiting a few Saab dealers to check out the new 9-4X and see what all the hype was about. To make a long story short, I was very impressed and picked up my own 9-4X a few weeks later.
I purchased this Saab 9-4X 3.0i Premium FWD on 13 September 2011 so that was

And the road trip continues.. We're still on the King's Highway 17 which is the longest highway in Ontario. It stretches from the Manitoba border to the east near Quebec and is 1,964 km / 1,220 miles long. That's a pretty good size road.

I often go camping with my 9-5 and a tent. Who needs a big RV when you have a Saab wagon?
