My Buick Rainier is a great vehicle. It has ample seating. The instrument panel is easy to read and provides all information a driver needs. The fact that I can put the back seats down allows me to transport larger items. The gas mileage is a little low at 14.9 miles per gallon, but I think it's better than some other vehicles of this type. The towing capability is enough for the class of vehicle, but it would be nice if it could tow more. It's easy to drive and rides more like a car than a truck. The back seats are roomy enough for my adult son and his wife, along with my grandson. The rear seat climate control panel is not what I had hoped it would be. I wish there was an option to not have carpet in the cargo area, as it has become a bit of a chore to keep my vehicle neat and clean while transporting some materials. The seat warmers are a bonus feature I enjoy in the winter. I also have a moon/sun roof that makes summer driving feel like summer driving. I am impressed with the AWD feature as well. Living near Lake Erie means lots of snow, and my Rainier got through it all.

We have enjoyed owning, driving, and riding in the Buick Rainier. It handles well, rides smoothly, does not look like every other car in the parking lot, and five people can ride comfortably in it. Not only is it a comfortable vehicle, but we have folded down the rear seats and hauled quite a few large heavy appliances in it, without any trouble, as well as more than a few pieces of lumber.

The Ford F150 has a very high hauling capacity. I've hauled loads that my previous trucks couldn't handle, and this handled them with ease. I never had any concerns going up hills or coming down hills that I would lose control of my vehicle. I could use it for minor road trips without breaking the bank, and bring my family too! Overall a great truck. Good for a variety of tasks, and its hard to go wrong.
