Hello from Breinigsville, PA!
I just got a used 2011 Buick Regal last Wednesday. I came out of a 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse SE (some may find it odd, but not really). My son is going to be driving soon and, for several reasons, an Eclipse may not be the best vehicle for a very young first time driver. So I gave it up. He gets the Regal, I'll find another daily driver that would get me home-work-home (3 miles) just fine. I was surprised he picked the Buick over his 15 or so shopping list in autotrader. I believe he made the right decision.
Yesterday, I found some (a handful) tiny rocks/pebbles caught in the engine ( in the middle where there is a recessed opening - for lack of better words) and for the life of me, I couldn't figure out how it would get there if the vehicle had not taken a nose dive. Dealership salesguy also can't provide me with an answer. All he says was it checks out fine, no reports of accident (yeah maybe it was not reported). Also I *THINK* I was given the round around today about a possible return (they have a 3-day risk free return policy.) When they finally called up after office hours, I was told the 3-day policy was over because I got it Wednesday and should have returned it today, Friday by end of business. I did helped him count properly like Wed to Thurs = 1 day, Thurs to Fri = 2 days, Fri to Sat = 3 days. I'm going in tomorrow to have the dealership a thorough look of the vehicle, and still if I'm not satisfied, I will return it or if they give the other 2012 model as an exchange, I will do it. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Sorry for the long rant-like introduction.
