1994 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon LT1 - Heavy Duty Tow Package - As New Matt Garrett - Dallas Texas - 214-878-3823 Click here for My Car Hobby Home Page Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon! 1994 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon. 5000 Miles, as new in every manner down to belts, tires, hoses. Put away new as a museum collector and possibly the finest Roadmaster Estate Wagon on earth. Beyond being the last of the RWD full size/full frame GM Cars, the final year 94-96 Roadmaster Wagons came equipped with the famed LT1 Engine. Yes, you can call this a "muscle" wagon as it is. The Impala SS/Cadillac Brougham/Roadmaster left a lasting impression on the American Car Culture being the final full size cars, and with the addition of the LT1 engine, they are still talked about today. The good ones have earned their way into the collector realm. Not many people saved these cars though, as they did drive so good and were very reliable, they got used up. With a total wagon production of about 20,000 from 94-96, not many of these exist in good condition today. The similar platform Impala SS, many were saved. Not so much for the lower production and more costly Roadmaster Wagon. The "skywagon" (glass roof wagons) were a bit of Americana going back for years ending with these cars. Many of us took family trips in the back of similar cars from the 60s and 70s. Sitting in that 3rd seat looking backwards as a kid was something pretty neat to behold. Although these cars were big for their day, they are not big enough today to combat modern SUV collisions.... so that is what took their place... Heavier, bigger and less efficient vehicles.... yep, totally backwards but re-marketed from "station wagon" to SUV to make it all "ok" for you to justify. Although there were many neat Skywagon GM cars, I would say the LT1 wagons of 94-96 would be the one Clark Griswold and his family wish they had vs that family truckster ford. I think Clark could have achieved a much longer jump in one of these! This Example goes a step beyond in collectability as it is a RPO V92 Gran Touring/Trailer Towing Package car. With this option, a ton of hidden hardware was added giving the car things not all had. This package gave you the F40 HD Suspension with the auto leveling, the HD Cooling with the large belt driven engine fan (notice most do not have this), Aux Engine Oil Cooler, Aux Transmission Cooler, Posi Trac Rear end, Higher capacity radiator, Higher Output Alternator, larger rear brakes. This option was said to be able to tow 7000 Lbs. But what it does without towing is make the car drive like a dream. There is nothing "boaty" about a car optioned like this. It handles like a dream and simply is powerful. Only way to have one. The rare 96 Brougham I have also has this option. Even harder to find in those. This car is also loaded with the Prestige Package, Leather, Full size Matching Alloy Spare, Remote Entry, Rare "Sungate" auto tinting front Windshield, 3rd Seat, Heated Remote Mirrors, Auto Door Locks and more. All that is neat but again means nothing unless its combined with being perfect, brand new and in museum condition. CLICK ANY PHOTO FOR AN EXTREME BLOW UP! Simple brand new Built here in Dallas Area with Pride! As new, factory Stainless Dual LT1 Exhaust, Note Posi-tag, HD F40 suspension with oversized brakes and self leveling. 1994 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon LT1 - Heavy Duty Tow Package - As New Matt Garrett - Dallas Texas - 214-878-3823 |

2021 Buick Envision's bold design means small space gains, a few big losses
Wed, Jul 29 2020So far, every preview we've had of the 2021 Buick Envision compels us to believe that it isn't playing in the same league as the current Envision, nor is it playing the same sport. The chiseled, crisp exterior is matched by an interior that, in pictures at least, sends a genuine premium message. GM Authority got early intel on dimensions for the new crossover, the numbers showing that the only close relationship between the current and the new Envision is in size. According to GMA, the 2021 Buick will be 185.5 inches long on a wheelbase of 109.4 inches, it'll stand 74.1 inches wide without mirrors, and 64.6 inches tall. Front and rear tracks are matched at 63.3 inches. That makes the new version 1.8 inches longer than the current five-seater, with a wheelbase stretched 0.9 inches, while width is 1.7 inches wider but overall height is 2.2 inches lower. The track has been expanded by 1.3 inches front and back. The four-trim lineup will be base, Preferred, Essence and Avenir. Buick's website pegs the current Envision at the single curb weight of 3,755 pounds. GMA writes that the new car comes in at 3,685 pounds in base form, or 3,932 in top Avenir trim. Those could all represent weights for front-wheel-drive models. AWD will be optional on all but the base 2021 Envision. The price for edgier design is a tiny cut in interior room in front. In the coming crossover, front headroom shrinks 0.4 inches to 39.6 inches, front legroom shrinks by 0.5 inches, front shoulder room goes down by 0.3 inches. Front hip room gains 0.7 inches, however, Occupants in the row behind get a tiny bit more space in two dimensions, rear headroom going up 0.4 inches, rear legroom by 1.8 inches, Rear shoulder room gets shaved 0.7 inches, and those haunches on the 2021 model take a bite out of rear hip room, that spec dropping by 5.7 inches to 47.4. Cargo room sees a slight dip, too, there being 25.2 cubic feet of space behind the second-row of seats compared to 26.9 feet available now. The gap grows with the rear seats down, the coming Envision able to swallow 52.7 cubic feet behind the front row, the current Envision managing 60 cubic feet. When product starts showing up on dealer lots, we're to expect a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder under the hood with 230 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, shifting through GM's nine-speed automatic transmission. GMA believes pricing will start around $34,000, which would be about $500 more than the current Envision.  Â
GM follows up Lambda CUV stop-sale with tire recall
Mon, Feb 9 2015In late January, General Motors announced a stop-sale for about 6,281 examples of the 2015 Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave because of the possibility for the treads cracking on their 18-inch Goodyear Fortera HL tires. At the time, GM said that this would also eventually lead to a safety campaign to repair the problem, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has just published those details. GM's recall covers 5,876 of the three Lambda platform crossovers to replace their tires. According to NHTSA, if the treads crack, there could be a loss of pressure and possible failure. Goodyear already announced its own recall of the tires after internal testing found small tread cracks. The company did not believe this was safety issue, but the problem did put the rubber out of compliance with federal laws. The business's safety campaign covered an estimated 48,512 tires. Of those, around 32,000 were reportedly made for GM to either be fitted to vehicles or sold as replacements. The remainder went to the aftermarket. Goodyear's portion of the recall is expected to begin around February 20. RECALL Subject : Tire Tread Cracking/FMVSS 110 Report Receipt Date: JAN 28, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V044000 Component(s): TIRES Potential Number of Units Affected: 5,876 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) BUICK ENCLAVE 2015 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE 2015 GMC ACADIA 2015 Details Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015 Buick Enclave vehicles manufactured December 9, 2014, to January 14, 2015, 2015 Chevrolet Traverse vehicles manufactured December 9, 2014, to January 20, 2015, and 2015 GMC Acadia vehicles manufactured December 9, 2014, to January 16, 2015, and all equipped with Goodyear P255/65R18 Fortera HL tires. These vehicles are equipped with tires that may experience tread cracking. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 110, "Tire Selection and Rims and Motor Home/Recreation Vehicle Trailer Load Carrying Capacity Information for Motor Vehicles with a GVWR of 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds) or Less." CONSEQUENCE: If the tire treads crack, a loss of tire pressure and possible tire failure may result, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the tires that were manufactured within a specific date range, free of charge.
The new Buick Regal looks like a Mazda, and we're totally cool with that
Mon, Dec 5 2016Yes, this undisguised Opel Insignia, which will be brought here as the next Buick Regal, looks a lot like a Mazda. You can see it in the grille and headlights, especially – in fact, if you look at one of the photos with tape blocking out the badge in the middle of the winged grille, you might think this is a new Mazda6. The thing is, Mazdas look pretty darn good, so no one's complaining. And when you look at the rest of the car, there's a fair amount of originality going on. Aside from the GM-generic taillights (they look like they could fit on a Chevy, right?) the lines and details are all pretty fresh, and there are some design elements pulled from Buick's gorgeous Avista concept. A sweeping roofline leads to some healthy shoulders at the back, creating a coupe-ish profile with a very abbreviated rear deck. This appears to be a hatchback model and not the four-door sedan, but the general look should carry over. This is definitely a big improvement over the somewhat bulbous current-generation Regal, which also started life out as an Insignia. The car shown here is the Insignia OPC model, with Brembo brakes, big wheels, side skirts, and a front end with big (likely fake) intakes. It will most likely translate to a Regal GS for our market, as is the case with the current OPC and GS. The new Regal/Insignia is expected to use the same platform as the new Buick LaCrosse, which is also shared by the Chevy Malibu and Impala. They should once again be available with front- or all-wheel drive and a choice of turbocharged four-cylinder engines. Rumor has the Opel versions debuting at the Geneva show March, and the Buick would likely follow, possibly in New York in April. View 13 Photos And then there's the wagon. All signs point to Buick finally bringing the most practical Insignia to our market as a Regal. We got wind of a focus group testing the idea, Buick has trademarked the name Regal Tour X. That version would likely go up against the Audi Allroad in the classy, slightly lifted all-wheel-drive wagon category, basically acting as an almost-crossover for people who want a wagon but won't admit it to themselves. The Insignia wagon caught here is also an OPC, and we think it looks even more handsome than the hatch-sedan shown above. The trim piece stretching from the base of the A-pillar all the way up and back down to the tail is a nice touch in profile view, although we're not so sure about how it terminates abruptly at the taillight.
