SAAB files for bankruptcy protection

In a desperate attempt to fend off going out of business, Swedish automaker SAAB has filed for bankruptcy protection. It will be a sad day if SAAB doesn't make it. The company "born from jets" produced some excellent cars and has always had a loyal, if somewhat eclectic following. I have written about my affinity for the brand in the past here and here. I have owned a couple of SAABs and always loved driving them. They won my affection and loyalty for almost 25 years, until I finally moved on for various reasons, none of which had to do with the quality or effectiveness of the vehicles. It will be sad if they don't make it.
