Perrys were hosts to the Perry clan on Christmas Day for a big dinner with all the trimmings and a good time was had by all.' We surely enjoyed the Christmas carols which were sung on our front steps by several groups of carolers in the few days before Christmas. It's nice to see some of the old customs being revived by the younger generations which is better publicized for lesser things.

It makes time other small cars shouldn't make Where traffic's heavy but rolling, and trucks are throwing their weight around, it's not the ideal place for small cars to make time. But the SAAB V-4 is no ordinary small car. It is out of the ordinary because it has front-wheel drive. So it doesn't push you around like others do. it Pulls you around corners, curves, and other drivers' mistakes (Most ordinary small cars don't give, even as options, all the standard SAAB safety features.)
