Yes, something like that on the LX. There has been so much going on with my surgery and an emergency surgery for a family member(she’s fine), just haven’t gotten around to it. I did yesterday and they said the old oil looked just fine.
Still have the Buick, it’s actually a great car and has proved itself over the years. We had a small a/c warranty issue with it years ago but that’s it. It is as comfortable as all get out and drives and rides very well. I’d drive it to California in a heartbeat.
In this family we just hang onto vehicles. No reason to trade that in for what 6 grand? It gets used as a second car all the time.

It's been a little while. Did you ever put 93 in your LX to see any difference?

And yes, 2 tanks of premium. No difference I could feel.

What did it cost you get your sway bar bushings changed?

It was about $40 for parts and $243 for labor.

I can’t believe how accommodating the back seat can be. And the materials and customization is amazing. I can’t imagine the reliability is any good but it certainly has all the features one could ask for. Something else I really liked is that sitting in the drivers seat, the vehicle has excellent ergonomics. Everything seems to be within reach, especially the screen. Perhaps there were too many buttons on the steering wheel, but that is no big deal But the view out from the front windshield is excellent

Apples and Oranges, Jill. I don't have that Copper Ice Metallic color pictured above....that was a new shade introduced for 2024, with the front-end and dash redesign. I have an older 2021 model, with the brownish Burnished Bronze Metallic color that was discontinued in 2022.

I would never choose either color, personally.

I like Burnished Bronze Metallic! But I wouldn’t choose the other color whatever it’s called. Lexus had a similar color called Autumn Shimmer.
