Re: The Lucerne is no Buick
I bought the wife a loaded 06 CXL with 2300 miles on it in Dec and haven't had a rattle or shake. The temps here have been hovering around low teens and the roads are pretty &%$#(@! hard too.
It now has 4000 on it and if there is an embarrassing flaw, it's the 4 speed when the rest of the world is using 6 and even 8. When GM finally bites the dust, it will have nothing to do with benefits. They just refuse to compete.
Other than some engine noise, it was completely silent inside when I first got it and I now notice only slightly more outside noise, but that may be the sub teen temps.
28 MPG on the highway. 17" Continentals. The middle suspension( forget what they call it) It doesn't drift anymore than a bunch of Avalons I tested.
It is no Lexus, but it isn't horrible.
I just hope it doesn't turn out to be as much of a piece of crap as my Silverado.
