1996 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon Collector's Edition-Very Nice Condition - Low Mileage 

One-family owned, beautiful condition 1996 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon Collector's Edition.  This is the last of the full-sized, rear wheel drive, station wagons, and Buick did it up right with the 1996 Collector Edition which is today highly regarded and becoming quite rare to find in nice condition with low mileage.  There is a lot of information online about this special car and all the features it has  – so I will touch on what I think are the important things for you to know.   

This vehicle has been well cared for, always garaged and recently serviced. Everything works (i.e.: AC, windows, original Concert Sound radio & power antenna, and power seats, ETC).  It is in excellent condition inside and out. The interior, including the leather seats, is just about perfect. The only exterior blemishes are a small dent in the hood (hard to photograph) and some minor “Di-noc” wood grain issues (see photos). The paint is shiny and new looking and there is absolutely no rust. All side moldings are in great shape and firmly attached. All chrome is very nice. The front and rear bumpers have minimal scratches in the paint. The doors have no (that I can see) parking lot dings. The undercarriage is clean with no rust. The vehicle has the Corvette LT 1, 5.7-liter engine with dual exhaust and gives excellent mileage (18 city-27 hwy).

The Roadmaster is fully loaded with all the Collector Edition factory options—from automatic driving lights, leather covered steering wheel, PosiTraction, power everything, down to the wire wheels. All tires are in excellent condition including the full size spare tire. This car drives great, is very quiet, has great power and acceleration, and is super comfortable.

With a trailer hitch, this car is rated to tow 7000lbs.  The Roadmaster has recently passed the Connecticut State Emission Test. 

You are welcome to inspect this Roadmaster or call to ask any questions. Please give me a call to arrange a time to view this car – you can also use the eBay Message System – I am usually quite prompt with replies.

The winning bidder will receive a clean Connecticut Title and Bill of Sale.  This car is for local pickup, or I can assist with loading onto a commercial car carrier.

Thanks,

Bob  (Phone 860-535-0242)

Note: The reserve price is very very low based what similar cars have sold for on eBay.  (Call I'll be glad to discuss it)

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners

Sat, 30 Mar 2013

The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.

Hyundai, Buick dealer apologize in wake of Chinese baby social media incident

Sat, 09 Mar 2013

A very strange story out of China today, as Hyundai and a Chinese Buick dealer were forced to face allegations of using allusions to an infamous child murder on a social media site as a way of promoting the safety features of their respective vehicles.
The original sad tale goes something like this: On March 4, a man reported to police that he had left his infant child in a running Toyota RAV4 while he ran into a supermarket briefly. When he came back out, the vehicle and the child were gone. Later in the week a suspect turned himself in to the police; confessing to them that he had stolen a sport-utility vehicle, strangled the infant that was in it, and then buried the child in the snow.
As you might imagine, the gristly incident was covered massively in the Chinese media. (There was huge public outcry as well, as evidenced by the vigil scene, above.) "Changchun baby abduction" was very quickly amongst the highest ranking search teams of the China's Weibo social media site - an equivalent of Twitter in the English-speaking world.

GM announces net 220 job increase as Trump visits Michigan

Wed, Mar 15 2017

GM announced today that about 900 jobs would be added (or, importantly, retained) ahead of President Trump's arrival in Michigan, where he is expected to discuss his plan to roll back fuel economy standards. The timing of the announcement is almost certainly not coincidental, as appending it to a Trump visit gives it a higher profile and dovetails with the President's jobs agenda. It's less likely the decision itself was made for those reasons, but the free PR boost is a nice bonus. As for those 900 jobs themselves, they aren't all new jobs. The only net gain is approximately 220 jobs at the Romulus Powertrain Plant, which produces the 10-speed automatic transmission that's proliferating through the company's lineup. The 180 jobs at Flint Assembly and 500 jobs at Lansing Delta Township are retained jobs – that is to say, spots the company found for workers who would otherwise have been laid off. By the way, the Flint jobs will help with production of heavy-duty pickups, and the Lansing jobs are to produce the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave. Finding jobs for manufacturing workers in the auto sector, whether new or retained, is admirable. No matter how GM couches it, the company has created or retained a total of 7,000 jobs this year, and its total reinvestment in US production is around $1 billion. But these decisions are business ones, not political ones – timing the announcements to make them seem inspired by economic policy, or the political situation, is simply smart PR.
