Hi, All! New member here. I just picked up my new-to-me '05 Saab 97x last night. It's a Linear with 137k and the rear entertainment pack and I got a hell of a deal on it. I've been doing a lot of reading over the past 4 or 5 days and I am really hoping this truck will provide me with some solid reliability. I've read really good things about them and the 4.2L engine but this is my first GM. I've always been a Ford or Jeep guy. It is replacing my old '87 Mazda B2600 4x4 as my winter/carry stuff vehicle. I only have one pic of the outside right now but the inside is in superb condition, like 9/10! So far I'm loving driving it and I can't wait to get a couple of things done to it. First up is window tint up front then I want to bypass the XM and turn that into an aux input for my iPhone/MP3. I've read that it's pretty easy to do.
I found that on the carfax, the vehicle was serviced at the original dealer for the first 5yrs of it's life like clockwork. Does anyone know if I went to a GM dealer if they would provide me with the service records? So far everything in it works perfectly but I'd like to know the history of the diff & trans fluids, etc..
Anyway, here is a pic of it, not the best I know but it will have to do for now. I look forward to sharing and helping in the future the best I can. This seems like a great forum!
