My First Brand New Vehicle and So Worth It!

I recently bought my first new car and chose the Buick Encore for it's sleek look, reliability, and amenities. This vehicle has everything I could ever want. I particularly love the comfy seats and being able to remote start my car from my phone. I live in WI so having a toasty car to come out of work from is a huge plus. I love my Buick!

Easy to drive, has no obstructed views.

This car passed the "Butt Test". I can get in by just sitting down and getting out is just as easy. My other cars I had to turn and flop into the drivers seat. to get out I had to use the door and door frame. Now I just get in and out. Very nice..

First SUV I have owned

I have only had my new car less than 1 month but I am loving it. I like how I can sit higher than most cars and it makes me feel safer.

Great car

If you could put all my needs in one car, here you have it. Comfort, style, great accessories, handling in the city and great gas mileage. After driving a hybrid for 10 years I was not going to consider a gas-guzzler, but I didn't want to spare any comfort.
