excellent vehicle

this suv has plenty of power but is still easy on the gas. it is an awd vehicle but drives and has the comfort of a luxury car. it has just enough of a rugged look to it that it fits in well on the construction site but also cleans up for an evening out on the town.

This is a very comfortable vehicle for the driver and front seat passanger. It has an amazing amount of standard featues and is a real pleasure to drive. It handles very well in snow and icy conditions. It moves with ease and feels very stable on the road, even in high wind conditions.

Buick has to do better

This is a new packaged Bravada - Buick had to differentiate here between the V6 based design (better fuel economy if possible get to 23mpg hwy) and the V8 based design (towing capacity and performance) - Rainier barely competitive with this SUV market segment even with rebates applied. Spend less for marketing and more for engineering

This car's performance has been strong and repair history has been light, equal to my previous Hondas. I'm very satisfied and will keep it.
