Car too heavy for 4 cyl. Saturn should reconsider.
Advice to buyer:
Stay away from the 4 cyl.
Detailed review:
The 4 cyl has no power, someone might get injured if they are not aware of the slowness of acceleration. I owned a 2004 VUE which performed much better, this new body style is attractive but the car is too heavy for the motor in my opinion. Somewhere between 40-50 miles per hour it downshifts and you can floor board it and it will hardly move until it is ready to shift, whenever that may be.
I also do not get the 18 miles per gallon city they advertise.
