TTAC Reviews the 2008 Saturn VUE and is pretty impressed - ‘The Saturn Vue’s biggest problem, perhaps its only major problem, is that the base four-cylinder model doesn’t deal the competition a killer blow in a hugely competitive segment. As good as it is inside and out, as keenly-priced as it is (about a grand under the RAV4 base vs. base), the Vue’s Ecotec engine and four-speed gearbox can’t match Toyota’s powertrain for smoothness or fuel efficiency. Still, props to Saturn for getting 90 percent of the way this time. Who’d a thunk it? ’

Remember, this is from the guys who hate, well, pretty much everything.  Not too shabby at all.  Things really are looking up at Saturn, considering how awful they were just a few years ago.
