Used 2008 Saturn Outlook Consumer Reviews
Snow Eater!
We bought our Outlook in August 2008 (traded in a BMW 330CiC). We bought it for it's HUGE interior and cargo space as well as it's seating for 8. No other vehicle can compare within it's class. It drives great, get's decent fuel mileage for it's size, and is very comfortable. We had our first "big" snow here in DC a week ago (6-10) inches and my wife was hesitant about driving the Outlook in the snow. We have owned other SUVs in the past and snow was not their strong suit. However, this thing was like a snow plow. No slipping, sliding, or any problems. She loved the fact that she didn't have to "do anything" because it is AWD. Great winter vehicle!!
Disappointment in Fuel Economy
I recently purchased my Outlook in. I thought I was ahead of the game by purchasing an Outlook instead of the Toyota Sienna. My number one reason for purchasing the Outlook was the advertised fuel economy. I thought it was too good to be true and I was right. I have exactly 2,596 miles on the vehicle. I use the cruise control religously on the freeway with just myself in the vehicle going at the speed of 65mph and I can never get better than 20mpg. I also had the time to test the outlook driving in the city until I had to get gas with just myself in the vehicle at all times and the best mileage I got was 13 mpg. I am so unhappy. Next time I will rent a car before I purchase.

Horrible winter vehicle
2008 Saturn outlook has been a “decent “ vehicle for being a used older car . Do not purchase if you live in a climate for snow or ice horrible
2008 Saturn OUTLOOK XE
Wow! I have 95,000 miles on it and never had any problems. Great car! Best car for the money.
No Longer GM Customer
The Outlook looks great inside and out, unfortunately mechanicly the vehicle is garbage. I have spent more money in 11 months of ownership on my 08 Outlook than I have in my last three vehicles combined. My next SUV will be a non GM product.
