Buick Lucerne with all the bells and whistles. We just got rid of ours after putting 100k on it in 4 years. It was comfortable, quiet and we never had a bit of problem with it. We commute 100 miles a day for work.

Excellent suggestion. Cadillac DTS or even an STS would be awesome as well.

Nothing beats big car comfort.

Lucerne is actually built at the Cadillac factory. My mother in law has a DTS and it was identical to ours except that she had the massaging front seats and heated rear seats and we didn't.

Edit: Oh, and we paid 20k less than her

Indeed. Lucerne is DTS-lite.

And the REALLY nice thing is you can get the Lucerne with GM's 3.8 litre V-6. Quite honestly, one of the best engines ever built.

Mangler had an accident on the way home from the liquor store. He was run off the road and crashed into a woman's clinic. It was one giant Pabst smear.

Hyundai Equus:





Or a Genesis. Anyone who, after driving one, can look you square in the eye and not admit that either are a luxury sedan is seriously deranged. Or lying to themselves.

I would recommend them for purchase.

German is nice but wouldn't you rather buy Russian?



There's much to be said for german engineering, but there's also much to be said for russian industry which btw defeated superior german engineering in WWII through mass production. mmm-hmm



I bet they make like six million of those cars every hour.

American planes will always be superior as long as there are wonderful men like you in the cockpit. And German parts.

Yes. Go to any Russian speaking country and you'll see a million of these Lada cars.

Which would you rather have, one King Tiger tank or 10 T-34's? Ehhh? Yeah exactly. The Germans found out which was better.
