The Buick was going to be approximately $5000 less than the Camry that

Isn't that just a shame? A once legendary badge, and now it is just a piece
of ****.


Well Buick is probably better now than ever. IMHO most all of GM Vehicles,
except maybe their trucks, were POS since the mid 70's. Back in the 7Os
80s ... They were all the same vehicles with different trim levels and
badges.

Yes "found on road dead" now seems to belong to GM, not Ford. I have
bought Rangers the last three vehicles, the main reason the seat was
the most comfortable to my ass. Priorities YMMV.

Since Rangers are no longer made (2011 was the last year, IIRC), I
bought an F150 this time. I like it a lot! The price they were
asking for Rangers was outrageous. $22K for a 2010 with 20K miles or
$18K for an '11 with 50K. I paid $25K for a new '13 F150 XLT.
