Saturn

[Alexus]

Does anyone miss Saturn? It's so funny - there used to be a commercial about Saturn, where they had a lady named Julie who was buying her first Saturn, because her family only bought Saturns. I actually have a friend named Julie who would never buy anything but Saturns! She is driving the one she has now for as long as she can. I have no idea what she'll drive when she is in the market for a new car....

I honestly had no idea that Saturns weren't around anymore. I guess it's because I never payed any attention to them anyway. I guess I just never liked their style. I'm all about the looks of a car.

I noticed I hadn't seen any Saturn dealers, but didn't realize they were totally out of business. When did that happen? I guess I'm out of that loop!

I do miss Saturns, I really liked the company and the cars as well. I was a little disappointed when they were taken off the market. The New York Times has a pretty good article about it.

Thanks Philio, that is an extremely comprehensive article. I know several people who loved Saturn, and the whole concept was one that I think would have worked very well. But unfortunately, trying to save the gas gusslers brought so many of the small North American small cars down.

I never had a Saturn but by best friend did because she worked with them. She loved her job so when she had to look for other employment she was devastated.
