    I have owned for six years, and this is my favorite of all the vehicles I've owned or driven. The ride, handling, comfort, looks and gas mileage are excellent. If you can find one that has been well taken care of, and is in good to excellent condition, buy it. This car rides as good as or better than a Cadillac.

    This car has been the most comfortable car that I have ever owned and one of the best that I have driven. When my wife and two teenage boys go on vacation we have no trouble carting all of our baggage. There is also loads of room in the car for carrying my family and parents on short trips.

    the car was amazing.. it handled like a dream.. drove very soft and comfortable.. would really get up and go when i wanted it to... the 3.8 v6 is a VERY solid engine.. a very reliable engine.. very reliable body.. very reliable car all around.. when my brother totaled it against a 2002 Ford F250 there wasnt much left of either vehicle but the only damage my brother had was some bruised up legs and the airbag almost broke his nose. in my opinion had he of been driving his 2001 S-10 4X4 that night instead of my car.. he wouldnt be here anymore

    I'm 6'7" tall. This car fits very nicely. I've had a bunch of electrical problems in the 5 years I've had it, but nothing really extreme. The ride is nice, and it has TONS of options. The only thing I'm not too impressed with is the Leather seats in the summer... But the seat warmer sure helps during the winter.

    this is my first car i bought it knowing i would have to put $ into it but i've put way way more then the car will ever be worth when everything is working though its a fun car and it fits a lot of stuff in it maybe to much but the only thing that bothers me are, for me at least i have rust problems in the wheels wells that i am currently fixing and also don't like how the dash is tilted so much because i put in a new head unit and you can not see it to well but on the plus side its an easy car to work on and I've learned a lot with everything its a solid car though if everything is working well

    Our Best

    Of all the cars we have owned over the years this one rates number one. It has been the most reliable, dependable, and comfortable car we have ever had. We are the second owners and see by the records at the dealership that the previous owner took excellent care of this car as well. The odometer is just over 92,000, 60,000 of which we have put on, and never a problem.

    I didn't know what a fine car these model 98's are until I was working where the lady wanted to sell the 98 for her mother that could no longer drive. I made an offer of $500 on the 1991 regency with only 63,000mi. as an extra car. I'm 68 now and its been the most comfortable car to drive in as well as handling. Even after an accident to the front end it still drove straight as can be and the lady that hit me claimed she was hit by a tank that totaled her 2017 chevy. I hated to see it go in the insurance claim but will always have the experience of driving a great car.
