Bought Van in 1991 when I had 3
teenagers at home. Teens are gone but
I still have my Van. Every time I
visit the dealership to look at new
cars, I come back with my Van. Trips to
S.C.,Ky., Ind., D.C. and twice to
Chicago since last oil change and did
not use a drop of oil.
Best minivan

This is one of the best vehicles I have
ever owned in my 35 years of driving!
We were so impressed with it that when
we went to buy my wife another car we
bought a '98 Silhouette. I hope it's
even half as good as my '91.
i like this vehicle

1990 Oldsmobile Silhouette 3dr Minivan
I had been considering another used
mini van(having switched from former
mini-van to smaller vehcile)and when I
saw this one and briefly drove it I
decided to buy(albeit it had high
mileage-appeared to have been well-
maintained),and if it needed repairs I
would rebuild as needed for
safety,dependability,and practicality
and comfort;I have not been
disappointed and … will continue to enjoy
if noting catastrophic happens to the
vehcile which continues to be one of
the most liked vehicle of my
experience. I have always had a
favorable opinion of Oldsmobiles,and
this one has also pleased me.
Not too bad for 1990

Only problems we had were the alternator -- replaced twice, and the black roof paint -- dealer repainted entire roof under warranty. And the expansive dash warped once, but that was replaced under warranty.
Fairly fun to drive due to space-ship like styling, especially if you have a silver one. Good gas mileage.
