The Buick Roadmaster has earned a reputation for its spaciousness, comfort, and impressive power across all model years. Owners particularly appreciate the roomy interiors and smooth ride, making it a fantastic choice for families and long drives. The powerful LT1 V8 engine is often highlighted for its acceleration, adding an exhilarating touch to the driving experience. However, some owners express concerns about the vehicle's fuel economy, maintenance costs, and the quality of certain components, such as door panels and braking systems. Overall, it's seen as a classic, large sedan that embodies both style and practicality, although it's known to be a bit heavy on fuel.

Overall these are great cars to drive and with 20-24 MPG from and very powerful LT1 engine it is like having your cake and eating it too! They run forever @ 290,000 miles still run strong! These cars are now aging but they still provide me with a great car to teach my kid's to drive and I know they will be safe. The greatest down side of this car is the fact that they will rust to death (midwest cars)! We are not just talking about a hole in a fender but the entire body substructure just totally corrodes to the point where repair would be impossible.

This car is big, luxurious, and safe. It is the kind of car that some people dreamed of owning. It has always been very reliable. It sat in the garage during the week, used only on the weekend. It is too big for my own personal use.

Reviewed a 1992 Buick Limited Sedan RWD on May 16, 2009
This car is amazing. I previously owned a Lincoln Town Car, and I do believe my Buick's ride is much smoother. It's stylish even today (people always check it out at stoplights and in parking lots), and it's so very comfortable. The 5.7 engine is more than adequate to move this two-ton car along. As a matter of fact, I sometimes have trouble staying under the speed limit. It's quite solid even after seventeen years on the road. This is possibly the most solidly built car I've ever owned. The doors close with a decisive "thunk," and the hood makes a nice "clunk" sound when it's closed. I love all the options this car has. It came from the factory with power everything, including seats(with three lumbar supports each), mirrors, windows, locks, trunk, keyless entry, and everything else one can imagine. There's even a compass in the rearview mirror. If you're looking for style and luxury without ostentation, I would highly recommend the Buick Roadmaster.

In the movie, “The Last Picture Show,“ the closing of a small town's movie house was a metaphor for the end of an era and a loss of innocence. Much the same can be said for the Buick Roadmaster, the last of the full-size, wood-paneled, kid-transporting station wagons to appear on American roads before the SUVs, minivans, and crossovers took over. The Roadmaster first appeared in 1936 as a top-line sedan, coupe, wagon, and convertible. It replaced Buick's old Series 80 and featured an incredibly long wheelbase. It would last until 1959, when it was replaced by the Electra. The 1953 model had the distinction of being the last wood body wagon produced for a mass market. Tom Cruise let Dustin Hoffman drive a Buick Roadmaster down the driveway in “Rain Man“ drove a 1949. It wasn't until 1991 that the Roadmaster made its return as a rear-wheel drive wagon and sedan that shared a platform with the Chevrolet Caprice. It was still a large boat, measuring 18 feet in length, and sported the iconic wood side panels. It could seat up to eight people with the optional third row, and both second and third row folded flat for an extended cargo area. The Roadmaster was no sissy either, with a fairly powerful V8 engine rated at 180-hp, and later an LT1 that impressed with 260-hp. A Vista roof over the second row made the car seem even bigger. The Roadmaster came in Limited and Estate Wagon styles and offered an array of power features, ABS, and keyless entry. The ride was still quite soft, but much more powerful than expected, and the Roadmaster could tow up to 5000 pounds. But as tastes changed and suburban parents desired more style, all-wheel drive, and a high ride height, the fate of the wood-paneled station wagon was doomed. Seen as too stodgy, too '70s, the Roadmaster couldn't compete against the growing popularity of SUVs. In fact, Buick stopped production in 1996, as its factory was being switched to SUV production. Now relegated to the memories of a bygone century, the 1996 Roadmaster was last seen in the movie, “The Departed.“
