Love to give pictures. But I bent up the Jeep on my last excursion, and it's in the body shop. Hood, windshield, windshield frame, fender all busted. OK, I hit a tree. Damn thing just jumped out in front of me.

When I get it back, so shall you have.

Buick just drove into town.

Tell me your thoughts and experiences with the turbo Buick. My 90 year old mother has a 2015 Regal Turbo that I will probably take over when she gives up driving, not anytime soon I don’t think, but she only has 6 thousand miles on the clock in 3 years.

Comfort plus decent pickup. No problem passing cars. Drove to North Carolina and back straight thru each way (with wife) 36 hours each way. Absolutely no problems. Spark plugs easy to change. Use Mobil 1 exclusively. Let it idle about a minute before turning off to cooldown turbo.

Have dual AC controls. Work perfectly. You should check out reviews based on year because sometimes different years, different reviews.

Don't let it sit without starting taking it for a little ride.

Mother drives it twice a week, to church on Sunday and to the hairdressers on Thursday. Not very far but far enough to reach operating temperature.

I knew there were changes made over the years but haven’t had time to do much research.

Good car. We are looking to put a trailer hitch on ours.
