Greatest car ever

There is no other car on the market like this gem. It is very spacious, powerful yet good fuel economy due to its aerodynamic design and very reliable. I have a 5.7 ltr. and a tow package with a trans.cooler. Have climbed west out of Needles, CA at a blistering 120 deg.F, 80 mph.on cruise with the air on and the temp. needle never went over half. Its got 150k miles and performs like the day I bought it. Love the two way tailgate and and 3rd fold up seat in the back. Great family car and work horse all in one. I can lay 4X8'plywood sheets flat with the rear seat down and has been very handy for construction jobs. Are you listening GM?

Buick Wagon Going Strong

Purchased new and still own this large eight passenger vehicle. Used primarily for road trips between homes and occasional tow of boat or trailer. Practically no repairs in 14 years, changed fluids two years ago, have some difficulty keeping side rubber securely attached is only problem. Wish I could buy a new one today. Car is very comfortable and has quick modified Corvette engine and still gets about 22 on road with regular fuel. Quite a package.

Replacement Towing Vehicle

This car was purchased to improve the 11-12 MPG we get towing our 3500 lb. camper with a full size van. It has the factory 5000 lb. tow package. I get 24- 25 MPG hwy (haven't done a full trip with the camper yet) and 15-16 city. The ride is great, the handling is surprisingly good (HD susp, factory air shocks + Air Lifts). The acceleration (has 2.93 posi, performance intake & exhaust, both very quiet) is strong enough to humiliate taunting (older) Mustang GT's. The easy to fold down seats (4x8 sheets fit flat) and 8 passenger capacity (my son's college buddies love it)make this car more versatile than our van. I have other cars but this old wagon puts a smile on my face every time I drive it.

Interior & exterior in good condition except for some peeling woodgrain on trim strips. No mechanical problems other than change of A/C l8 months back. Regularly serviced, 1 owner, good tires, brakes redone. 95,000 miles. Have just purchased a 2002 Cadillac Escalade and refused the trade in offer.

Beats My Wife's Mercedes 380 SEL

I was going to sell my Buick because I bought a Mercedes 380SEL for my wife. After driving the Benz,I decided to keep the RoadMonster. The ride is plush without sacraficing handling. It also feels that it can haul a trailer and take a beating the car sits on a ladder frame, very durable. Power is great with great gas milage on regular fuel. Realize we are talking about a car that weighs 4500 lbs, the Benz weighs 4600 lbs.The ride on the Benz is OK you do feel the road and it bumbs, Europian.If you want to hopup the car look at Impala SS.We've put 45,000 commute miles since we bought it 19 months ago with no major repairs done or in sight.

Hot Rod Buick Wagon

I bought a very nice '94 wagon with 88k miles on it about 13 years ago for $3,200. I added a cat back 2.5" "X" pipe with low restriction but quiet mufflers, a low restriction intake and air bags in the rear. This car had the 5,000 lb. tow package (HD suspension, 2.93 psi axle, HD cooling). It ran great and was very reliable; the only issue I ever had was with the main electrical bus bar. I replaced it with a later model, heavier duty unit and never had another problem. 22-24 MPG on the highway. My son took it to college and humiliated cocky kids driving older Mustang GT's and Camaro Z28's in standing start acceleration contests. I raced a Lotus Exige and hole shotted it so bad it couldn't catch up in two blocks. No tire spin, just a super quick launch.The most surprising thing was how well it handled (police car suspension with the air bags set at 10 psi). I added an A pillar mounted tach and trans oil temp gauge as I used it to tow a 3000 lb. camper. Very comfortable, well controlled ride and cushy velour seats; I wasn't tired after 400 mile trips. I sold it for more than I paid for it after driving it 3 years. Car and Driver's 1994 road test recorded a 0-60 time of 6.6 seconds which was quicker than the same year 1994 Mustang GT. This is a well built, solid automobile that has appreciated greatly over the last few years."Why take a cooler when you can bring the refrigerator"? Quote from a wagon annual get together. A fun car to drive and approaching classic status.

yesterday as i was going from neutral to reverse in my driveway.the throttle raced to full and i couldn't stop the car.i ran into my house going about 35 miles an hour and totalled the car and broke my collarbone and obviously messed up the house too.it happened so fast and it went at full speed that i didn't have time to turn off the engine thinking it was just a stuck pedal...but it wasn't and it only stopped on impact.the airbags never deployed and i still haven't removed the car from the house...i was alone thankfully or else there could have been a far more serious outcome. has anyone else experienced this???? i had no warning the '94 wagon has 100k miles on it and is in 9.5 shape.
