My New Saturn
I went to this dealer to see a used Jeep Grand Cherokee and ended up buying a 2006 VUE. I believe it was a much better buy, 3 years newer, 1/2 the miles and covered by the mfg warranty. I also purchased a VUE with a sunroof which has been really a nice option for me. I have only had the car about a week but am extremely happy with it. I like the interior a lot. Have ordered luggage racks for it to give it a sportier look, mud flaps too. Think I got a lot more car for my money!
Great Updates for 2006
Great vehicle especially after the updates for 2006. If you drive the 4 cylinder automatic near the speed limit you will get over 30mpg highway. After more than 10K miles no problems and gas mileage is great. It does have pep for a 4 cylinder though it will degrade gas mileage quickly if you race it around. I use an iPod with the aux input. Just buy a 3.5mm to 3.5mm jack from RadioShack. OnStar diagnostics are emailed. OnStar is great and safe. Green Line hybrid version should be interesting when it comes out later this year.

Saturn is Success!
I recommend this vehicle with the carry ability of a light SUV, gas mileage like a Camry, and handling like a lighter sedan car. Fun to drive. Smooth on the highway. Gs mileage is about 20-25 around town. The tote package in the trunk with the carry rack for groceries is a nice tip
Think Twice Before Buying
When I first bought the Vue I could not be happier with it. However, as time and miles add up(less than 37,000 miles) My Saturn started costing money. I have had it in a shop 4 times. Both front disk replaced, both rear hubs replaced, radio control in steering wheel quit working, and now I have no radio. They say fuse in radio needs replaced at a cost of over $300. For a fuse replacement in the radio itself! I've owned three Saturns; this will be my last. If you're thinking about buying one take a look at comments of owners who have had theirs longer than a year. You'll see a trend of costly problems in your future.
Great car for the money
Has been the most trouble free vehicle I have ever owned. One year old never back to dealer. Does better on city and combined driving for mileage. Lots of upscale features, leather heated seats, OnStar, auxilary jack on radio, steering wheel controls. Fun to drive.
