Group gone?

I've had the same feeling for months now. Maybe someone knows. Fred

Seems that it has gone quiet while web sites like SaturnFans have gone up in activity. I miss my old friends from here, Oppie, Lane? where are you guys?

Most newsgroups see lower traffic during the summer -- people are on vacation, enjoying the outdoors, doing yardwork....

Me, I haven't had anything go wrong with either of my Saturns lately ('96 SL2, '99 SL2), and nobody's asked any questions, either, so I haven't had anything to post about.

Was wondering if everybody just went over to Saturnfans.com or what? I answered a few posts over the past few months about L series and never even got a thank you reply.

I check this group regularly and find it easier to navigate than digging through saturnfans (which I am registered for but rarely use).

Regardless, wishing all a good summer. Oppie

Present and accounted for, Sir! Hey, I'm a die hard. Heck, I still check the Junkyard-wars group even though the show has been gone (in the USA) for years.

I still read in here .. my 98 Saturn still running like a champ - hit the whopping 74,000 miles a week ago. I've driven 134 miles since July

17, a little over my average but I did drive 24 miles round trip on July 19 to a picnic.

I'd be hard pressed to buy a new vehicle today - I really appreciate my Saturn's dependability.

Lemme regress - I WON'T buy a new vehicle .

Sheesh, my 97 SL2 has over 205,000 MILES on it. Still runs good, but some stuff is starting to bug me. I may look at a new car around year-end.

I sure hope a few of you regulars stick around. I just bought my first Saturn a few months ago (2008 VUE - 3.6 AWD) and my son has an SL1 (I think it's 4 or 5 years old). I tend to keep my cars a little longer than most and like to work on them myself when possible. My last car was a 91 Ford Mustang XL and the day the Firemen extricated me from it it had 325,000+ Km and had only seen a mechanic about 4 times in 18 years. I find the cramped engine compartment in the VUE a little intimidating at the moment, but I am sure by the time the 3 year bumper to bumper warrantee is up I will feel more inclined to get my hands dirty keeping it in running order.
