Buick Value

Overall this is a great value with the current rebates. Surprised about a few things though. No hydraulic lift for the hood? Even Rendexvous has this. Too much plastic. Faux wood. Unexciting instrument panel. Poor range of low beam headlights. WOW! What a quiet vehicle and great ride!

I test drove the other intermediate sized SUV's; Trailblazer, Envoy, and found the Rainier the smoothest and best buy of the three. Most comfort and comfort features.

rides and handles like a car rather than a truck. Nice pick up. Driver information center could use more data. It was an excellent choice at a good price.

Better than Cadillac

I traded in a 2003 Cadillac Deville for the 2004 Rainier V8, the ride is quieter, smoother, and the only thing I miss is the mileage per gallon.

Rainier Rules!

Everything from the buying process to the trips and commuting I do in my Rainier has been a pleasure. The car itself is beautiful - a dark green with lots of chrome highlights. Everything is automatic, from the seat positions to lights turning on. It rides smoothly and quietly, but without that floating feeling that can make luxury cars less handleable. We've already had to call on the services of OnStar when the family was locked out of the car while on vacation - they came through with flying colors and got us back in the car within five minutes.
