PLEASE read all details good and bad on this car.
We have owned for just over 3 years. We keep pretty good care of it doing basic maintenance when due. The motor and tranny run strong, never had any issues. Car drives AWESOME In the winter. I went through some major snow storms with this car. Was in Sasakachwan Canada with it in Dec 2010 and it was COLD...while everyone elce was plugged in, I could not as does not have block heater, car started RIGHT UP the next morning at -30 below. Very impressed with it. Has 90% highway miles on it, yes miles are high but runs great......is still our daily work driver but we are buying prperty which needs a 4x4 to get to so the car needs to be sold to buy a 4x4.
It needs a tune up here soon. I will include that in this auction upon completion of the sale before you pick it up. Will need some new rubber soon. The fender on passanger side got damaged by a friend, whom replaced it but did not set it in pefect so the door would rub againts it when opened...did this for some time and did some more damage, not major. It's hard to tell in a picture but it is not creased, just pushed in and easy to straighten back out. This is why we are selling cheap and there is a NR on this car. I am sure it is an easy fix and does not make the car look bad. Also needs a little muffler work where sits into cataletic converter...came loose. We can also have that done at the end of the sale and include in the final sale.
Also the previous owner had put in some sort of stero system, all the wires are still in tack for this. Car is CLEAN and has never been smoked in. The leather is good shape, no chips or cracks in any of the windows. Carpet is good and clean. Radio works so does CD player and tape deck. We bought a brand new gas pump for it thinking it was going bad, but then that is when the resister went and we replaced that and is fine. Will include the new pump if ever it is needed.

Buick picks top 11 highlights from first 11 decades
Sun, 21 Apr 2013Buick has taken the time to highlight some of the company's personal points of pride from the past 110 years. Those include everything from the automaker's very first vehicle, the 1904 Model B, to what Buick claims is the world's first concept car: The 1938 Y Job (above). That one also walked away with the worst name for a design study.
All told, the automaker has sold 43 million vehicles through the end of last year, and those include the lusty 1963 Riviera. That model celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2013, and remains one of the brand's most iconic designs.
Of course, Buick is rightfully proud of its quickest model, too. The 1987 GNX managed a 4.6-second bolt to 60 mph in tests by Car and Driver, and it also took the honor of being one of the automaker's rarest creations at just 547 units. You can check out all 10 in the gallery above.
Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'
Mon, 27 Oct 2014The Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey (right) is out, and the top two spots look much the same as last year's list with Lexus and Toyota in first and second place, respectively. However, there are some major shakeups for 2014, with Acura plunging eight spots from third in 2013 to 11th this year, and Mazda replaces it on the lowest step of the podium. Honda and Audi round out the top five. This year's list includes six Japanese brands in the top 10, two Europeans, one America and one Korean.
Acura isn't the only one taking a tumble, though. Infiniti is the biggest loser this year by dropping 14 spots to 20th place. Other big losses come from Mercedes-Benz with an 11-place fall to 24th, and GMC, which declines 10 positions to 19th.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not traditional mechanical bugs hauling down these automaker's reliability scores. Instead, pesky problems with infotainment systems are taking a series toll on the rankings. According to Consumer Reports, complaints about "in-car electronics" were the most grumbled about element in new cars. Problem areas included things like unresponsive touchscreens, issues pairing phones and multi-use controllers that refused to work right.
GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
