Which vehicle do you prefer and why? I prefer Buick because they are very reliable. They maintain their market value well for a domestic. And they are very inexpense mechanically if something does go wrong.

I have had my 1994 Buick Century since 1997 and I have now put it up for sale. I don't want to see it go but my needs have changed and I need a van so I can transport my scooter because I'm unable to do a lot of walking when I get to where I'm going.

I have had my 1999 Buick Century for only 5 years now, but it seems to still run great and I have driven it all the way across the United States. Great cars! Years ago I bought a 1986 Buick Skylark. It had 113000 miles on it when I bought it, 5 years later sold it for over half of the $1500 that I had paid.

By the way, yours stil looks great! I am sure you will have no trouble selling it. If you don't need to sell it right away, keep in mind tax time is coming and you can get more for it in February or March if you can wait.

Well I have about had it with GM products. Seems like most of the domestic makes have gone to crap in the last 10 years. Most cars don't last more than 5 years if that long. My mom just bought a 2005 Buick. The A/C went out within 2 months. Of course there is no warranty left of the vehicle.

Ford doesn't surprize me none, but I'm really shocked at Buick. My air conditioner works great. I have have two Buicks both were the century. My family member won't drive anything else when they were younger. My daughter bought a brand new Buick in 2006 and she did have a steering problem but I don't think the SUV's are nearly as reliable as the plain model Buicks. I am sorry for your mom because that is very disappointing.

I am so sorry to hear your Mom has had such bad luck with her Buick. What type of vehicles have you had good luck with?
