2005 Buick Rainier Review:
The Ranier is the total package and an excellent competitor to the Lexus. It has a great ride and handles like a dream. As a female it has just the kind of class and style that makes you feel special when sitting behind the wheel.

Overall a fine vehicle. One problem-at 16,000 miles whine became obvious coming from alternator gradually increasing in volume. dealer says it's o.K. Annoying.
