Is he the sole authority to judge who is allowed to blog and who is not (and what is BS and what is not) ? What's the point in blogging, then ?? If mr Farago thinks he is ‘the Truth’, mr Springsteen obviously believes himself to be ‘the God’ (or at least ‘a god’).

Is he the sole authority to judge who is allowed to blog and who is not (and what is BS and what is not) ?

What’s the point in blogging, then ??

It's a link to ColoradoBiz magazine, which tells me nothing about who you are. The only 'Saab' connection I found in the archives included a J. R. and a J. A. I'm guessing you are the 'car guy'? denveraero,

All opinions are unfounded if you do not agree with them- as they are not founded in your views. If you agree with them -or they agree with you- they instantly becoming acceptable of course! Strange that one...And opinions are as we know like assholes - everyone has one (inlcuding me). Take no notice Swade mate, you own, you drive, you fix, you learn. I have worked with academics and the specialist qualified and most of them have had their minds trained and conditioned to be closed to anything other than perceived wisdom - which is balls of course as no wisdom could ever stem from perception. Hit back hard Swade mate.

His information is often second hand. And although he is quick to point out the flaws he finds with Saab cars and the company, his opinions in regard to other brands are biased and largely unfounded." Hah! I've been a paid journalist 25 years and have written about thousands of subjects and never been an expert in any of them. What the f--- does that have to do with anything? Swade admits he's biased, as every living person on this planet is. The trick is to present both sides and more of the story. Grow up you stupid engineer, he-who-thinks-he-knows everything. “Mr. Wade is neither an engineer nor a member of the automotive industry. His information is often second hand.

I think maybe you missed it. It's on the first line lumped in with the Chevy Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, and Isuzu Ascender. PS: Not that anyone cares, but I'm going to post as saabyurk from now on. That's what I use everywhere else. I came up with the name like this: I'm a Saab jerk, "jerk" pronounced by a Swede would sound like "yerk" which sounds like "yurk" which is the 1st 4 letters of my last name, hence "saabyurk". :-) “The 9-7x was actually a final 10 ‘winner’ last year, but I’m pleased to say that it’s not nominated in the final 20 for this year.”
