Wife's car and she loves it. She had a 2002 Bravada and really liked it , but the Rainier much better. The V/8 is much better than the 6 cylinder, the ride is smoother and it is quieter. It is just a richer looking vehicle.

Larry's Review of Buick Rainier

Purchased my Rainier after close consideration of many other brands of SUV's. I felt the Rainier was far and away the best value for the price. After driving the Rainier to Florida from Ohio I was not disappointed with my choice. The car handled beautifully , there was virtually no road noise, the ride and comfort was excellent, the interior design and features are excellent, the car has an overall solid feel. I am a little disappointed in the fuel mileage. I figure it cost me an extra $20.00 for my trip to Fl. but, considering the comfort and features of the Rainier I can easily live with the mileage.

Nice Car

What we like the most: comfort on trips, heats up interior instantly in the winter, running board for easy access. Overall a nice car. Limited room in floor of front seat, no visor extensions and speed control acts up when in hills, starts jumping going down hills. No help from GM in a fix so far. Like the car better than the rendevous which we previously owned but has less room and storage than the rendevous.

Fun SUV to drive Small footprint,extremly quick and agile with the V-8. Quiet and easy to drive on rough and smooth surface. Psycologicly it "fits".The valets fight to drive it. It even pulls an 18 foot Four Winns Boat or a trailer full of trash.It Gets you up out of the water. Now thats important when you live in Texas. Recently we've had Gully washers at least once a week.
