Buick Rendezvous
Does anyone have the Buick Rendezvous and if so can anyone please tell me what you thank of it? I am looking for information from someone that has one or brove one.
Yes I am a Ford Truck Lover but also a Buick Lover.
What kind of gas mileage do you get with it? How does it handle? Have you had any trouble with it? I would like the PRO'S and CON'S on it?

All I know is, I just got back from the west coast of Florida, and the Rendezvous is now THE official New Car of old folks down there. Every other driveway in the "55+" mobile home parks seemed to have one of those things!
Hey, Buick sells a ton of 'em, but I just can't get past the not-quite-as-ugly-as-an-Aztek exterior.

A good friend of ours bought one of those last year. It kind of surprised me- She's 40ish, has a great job, and can basically afford anything she wants to buy. She was looking for a smaller SUV that she could take her two large dogs out in, but was comfortable, plush, and had all the whistles and bells her Riviera had (not a truck buyer, in other words). She shopped the highline import brands, liked the little Lexus, but decided the price tag was nuts. So far, she's been happy with it.
Note: she bought it slightly used (6k miles on it?), and paid something like $16K for it. Not only is she wealthy, she's a smart shopper too.
(or maybe the two are related?)
