Gotta love old pictures when the blue part of the print fades out :)

This was AFTER I tried to color-correct it. The original photos were much redder even than this.

#4, I imagine something to tow it with... to be towed behind a larger vehicle. I know a lot of RV owners back then, and some still today, flat-tow Jeeps behind as little runabouts for whenever they set-up camp.

There's a house in town that has or had at least (haven't been by that way in quite a few years) some giant motorhome and a Geo Tracker, similar situation, I bet.

#6, It's actually relatively common amongst RVs in America... I guess I never realized that people in Eastern Europe don't tow cars behind RVs like that.

#8, I see a lot of larger RVs towing Wranglers, Trackers, and Saturn SLs.

#10, The Saturn SLs are actually one of the few non-truck cars that can be flat-towed no problem, from what I understand.

#11, Any idea why?

#12, Someone did tell me that Saturn intended that feature to be part of the car, so it isn't just a coincidence... they saw an underserved niche (RV owners who'd rather have a car than a truck as a runabout), and decided to fill it.

Any idea what they did to allow that?

Wasn't it Suzuki or somebody who engineered their cars so that the odometer doesn't record mileage when the vehicle is being towed?
