So I'm guessing the autos were the Caravan, Crosstrek and Rav 4? How'd you like your Saturn? I had a '94 SL manual everyone clowned it but I learned to love it.

Tundra. the Crosstrek was MT.

I bought the Saturn for my first wife and we divorced about a year later so I didn't get a lot of experience with it but she drove it for at least 5 years.
