Replying to: beginn_er (Feb 10, 2009 7:15 am) Glad your 2004 RDV is treating you great as well... My wife has a 2003 FWD RVD (built in late 2003 - with better intake gasket) and its been a "great vehicle" as well. It starts every time. It has "take off" every time and it has "brakes" every time. And it hugs the sharp corners very tight as well. Despite its short wheel base, it has a very smooth and "comfortable" feel on the road. To me, my wife's RFW is a "very fun" vehicle to drive. So far, our 2003 RDV needed 2 x Front Wheel bearings (which is a know design engineering weak spot) and 2 x Front Rotors (which is another known design engineering weak spot). We currently have 63,000 miles on our 2003 and it still runs great. So far, we're very pleased we bought it. Especially for a "run about" in-town primary vehicle. . |

We had to sell our 2002 Rendezvous back in 2005 when going overseas. We never had any problems with it. Upon our return we got a new '09 Lexus RX350 and this thing has been to Lexus service more than all my previous cars combined. The latest quirk was doors wouldn't lock, automatic windshield wipers turn on at will, AC wouldn't run and on top of that power windows wouldn't open. The last combination (no AC and no windows) was cherry on the cake in hot Houston summer weather. We miss the plenty of room that Rendezvous has and all the items would always fit in. RX350 is much tinier. In Rendezvous with 3rd row I had 8 people safely riding and individually buckled up at one time. Lexus would seat 5 at most. We also miss the heads up display we had in our CXL. |

I bought a 05 Buick Rendezvous and LOVE IT! I have put 70000 trouble free miles on it. It has always got me where I want to go. I have the cxl awd and the AWD is amazing. Versatrak does work as it should. I used to have a 1998 Chevrolet Blazer with ABS and I hated ABS. The Rendezvous ABS however is a lifesaver. It stops in a straight line and allows you to steer where you want to go. I also have the sunroof which I like. I would buy another rendezvous, however I will have to go to a minivan I will probably be buying a 09 Town and Country. |
