1992 Buick Roadmaster Base review from North America

Fuel Pump at 195,000 miles. Expensive to fix due to GM's huge markup on parts for the 350 engine.

Anti-lock brake light is on. Dealership told me that the brake system was fine and that it would function as if anti-lock brakes were never installed. Even the newer Roadmaster's I've test-driven have this same problem. It's not worth the estimated $2000 to mess with repairing.

I love this car. I only wish GM would continue to make such a thing. The rear wheel drive is great, as is having a frame-built car rather than a unibody.

The power is plenty, yet still somewhat disappointing considering the size of the engine and the amount of fuel it burns. The high torque makes towing a breeze, though I would much recommend trailer brakes on anything you'd pull that has any weight to it. The car is heavy enough for the car's brakes to try to stop without the trailer.

My next vehicle will be a full size van, but if Roadmasters were still in production I wouldn't consider owning anything else. A van is the only thing left on the road that under $30,000 that meets my towing and 6+ passenger needs.

The car got buried in falling trees during an ice storm this winter. From the dramatic fall of the big limbs I was sure the car would be destroyed (the cars body nearly touched the ground when these things hit). The only damage it suffered was a slight dent in the rear-quarter panel. If I'm ever in an accident, I hope I'm still driving this car.

This car is the ultimate highway machine.

Hey GM, bring back these beasts!
