Auto tenting rear view mirror with compass.  New battery purchased year ago.  I have purchased a new OEM primed fender included (not installed), new passenger headlight installed. Planning to purchase a new drivers side headlight assembly, (it's very cloudy looking compared to the new one on the right).

The wife has driven most of the miles on this car, to from work, church, grocery store. She and friends have made 5 recent trips between Central Kentucky and Fort Worth, Austin TX. 1200 miles one way, I personally would trust the car to make the trip today, but remember this is a used car with 134k miles and doesn't have a warranty implied or expressed.

Now The negative, 2 months ago The wife lightly sideswiped the rear bumper of a pickup truck in a tight parking lot, all damage on passenger side, at very low speed, headlight cracked (replaced), front fender damage (purchased OEM front fender, not installed but included) passenger front door has some dents, damage. Some small dents rear wheel well crown just behind rear door seam. See the pictures of the damage. It isn't major or overly ugly but front door needs replaced or repaired, front fender needs installed or repaired, or just reinstall the plastic wheel well and drive it the way it is now. The paint is bubbling up in a small area under gas door. I purchased a 2005 LeSaber to replace this one, same car just newer (she likes Buicks). This car was purchased in 2003 from the orig owner with 27000 miles and has been the wife's only daily transportation and has been very dependable. I really hate to sell the car but need the funds to help pay for the 2005. This is not a junk car but a high insurance estimate including my 1k deductible borderline met the total loss guideline. The car has a clear title no liens or restrictions. Questions call 859-925-3248

Note: there isn't any hidden damage that I'm aware of,  the streak on the door is a light reflection. Terrible picture taking with a cheap camera. Same on passenger side reflection of the building behind me. Getting good pictures right isn't easy for a photo dummy. Any and all questions will be answered!

2013 Buick Encore nets strong IIHS, NHTSA safety scores

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

After being crushed from every which way and rolled over like a labrador, the 2013 Buick Encore has been named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. To earn the accolade, a vehicle must achieve the highest rating of "Good" in each of the institute's four main crash tests: Front Moderate Overlap, Side, Rollover and Rear. The Encore aced those four tests with "Good" ratings, but missed out on the coveted Top Safety Pick+ designation by receiving a Poor rating in the institute's new Front Small Overlap test. To be named a Top Safety Pick+, the Encore would need to score at least an "Acceptable" rating in the new test, as well as "Good" in all four original crash tests.
Despite the miss, the Encore joins the Enclave, LaCrosse, Verano and Regal as Top Safety Picks all. If you count only the Encore with all-wheel drive, then all five Buicks have also earned five-star overall ratings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Adminstration, making Buick one of the few manufacturers to offer a full lineup with high scores from both safety rating organizations.
The front-wheel-drive Encore, despite performing equally as well as the all-wheel-drive version in NHTSA's crash tests, only earned four stars overall. As far as we can tell, the discrepancy between the two is because some safety equipment, like Forward Collision Warning and Lane Departure Assist, are optional features on the FWD Encore and standard on the AWD model.

Junkyard Gem: 1956 Buick Special 4-Door Sedan

Sun, Aug 6 2023

Buick was flying high in the middle 1950s, with an all-time sales record of nearly 800,000 cars sold for the 1955 model year alone. Buick stood proud in third place for new-car sales in the United States for 1955 and 1956, behind only Chevrolet and Ford. At this time, both Oldsmobile and Buick built cars on the GM B Platform, with the Buick being the swankier and more prestigious of the two. Here's one of those Buicks, found in a Denver self-service boneyard recently. The list price of this car was $2,416, or about $27,505 in 2023 dollars. Located one step down on the GM Ladder of Success, the 1956 Olds 88 sedan started at $2,226 ($25,342 now). The Oldsmobile had a 324-cubic-inch (5.3-liter) Rocket V8 rated at 230 horsepower, which was serious stuff for 1956. This 322-cubic-inch Buick Nailhead V8 made ten fewer horses for 1956, but it would be bored and stroked out to 364 cubes for 1957 (and was all about land-yacht torque, in any case). A three-on-the-tree manual transmission was standard equipment on the 1956 Buick Special, but this one has the $204 Dynaflow automatic transmission ($2,332 in today's money). The Dynaflow usually gets called a two-speed, but it drove like more of a very inefficient (yet smooth) CVT that had two manually-selected ranges. This car spent too many decades outdoors to have any chance of a restoration. As often happens with cars stored in fields in rural Colorado, someone used this Buick for target practice. The bullet holes look like little VentiPorts. Does the '56 Buick go? Va-va-va-voom!

Shanghai debuts, Jeep's new Rubicon anniversary rigs | Autoblog Podcast # 777

Fri, Apr 21 2023

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Associate Editor Byron Hurd for a recap of the past week's worldwide debuts along with some updates from their recent adventures. They start off discussing the rumors of a new Ford Mustang Raptor and what that means in the context of previous rumors of a Corvette SUV. Then it's time to talk Shanghai, where Polestar, Buick, Volkswagen, Porsche and Lincoln all had big reveals. After that, they segue to Byron's trip to Moab for the 2023 Easter Jeep Safari preview where he drove the AEV Level II Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 20th Anniversary Edition. From there, they reminisce about Mustangs in a nod to the nameplate's 59th anniversary, after which they stick to the theme with a sub-$15,000 RWD used-car discussion. Is there anything worth buying in this price bracket in today's economy?
