Saturn Relay anyone?

Dan Duncan 7 February 2005 21:38:08
 Has anyone had any experience with the Saturn Relay?

I spotted one the other day. I didn't even know they were out
until then and hadn't seen any mention on this group about it.

I checked out the information on Saturn's website, built my own,
did side by side comparisons with a couple of other vehicles,
etc, but I am looking for user input.

 That is the new minivan I believe. Check this month COnsumer Reports. They
were not particularly kind.

 My pet peeve: I always wonder why nobody mentions the terrible gas
mileage these large SUV's (like the Relay) have. it costs a bundle
over a year's time. These cars are clearly not economical.
I have a 4-cylinder Vue, which gets better mileage than the Relay, yet
I wince at every fillup.

 The Sienna and Honda actually get respectable mileage.

The Relay is not an SUV, nor does it get the terrible gas mileage that large
SUVs get.

Saturn's page says the Relay gets 18 mpg city and 24 mpg highway which seems
terrible to me. Are you saying that there are vehicles that get worse?

My Tundra gets 15 mpg's and has a 27 gal tank - I'm sure the H2 gets worse
mileage...

Gee, I wish my Sedona got that good mileage (16/20). Of course, there
are trucks/cars with more consumption. Get yerself a Suburban or Excursion
with the large engine. You'll be lucky to get 12-15 MPG.

Ahh, but you can run it on anything - kerosene, vegitable oil, camel dung... :)­

I just discovered them today and was admiring the SUV look of the
Relay. I have owned SUV's for 20 years. I currenly own a 95 Jeep
Cherokee Limited and have decided to start shopping for something new
again. Now with kids, a dog, etc., I am leaning towards the Relay BUT
only because it doesnt look like a spaceship :)­. I love my Jeep,
loved my Blazer, and have never been fond of the mini-van but for some
reason this appeals to me. Reading the posts here, gas mileage is
something to consider based on what you can afford to pay. I am happy
with 18mpg-.. which is what I get with my Jeep. People who bark at
the mpg should realize that if they drive 50 miles a day, only making
20,000 a year, they need to buy a more efficient CAR and not an SUV or
Van. I think I will pull one more summer with my Jeep and see what
happens with the Relay in October when the 2006 come out. I never
thought I would consider a minivan.. :)­.
