Oldsmobile Silhouette

ADS
As far as mechanical goes - the two major issues we've noticed is that many of those gm engines get intake gasket leaks - not a huge deal - usually about $500 to fix; and they take FOREVER to heat up in the winter - you can add an auxiliary heater core, but it's not really worth the $$.

We have a 99 and I really like it...for a van. It has one power sliding door which some days has a mind of it's own...but it works. The seats are heavy, but come out easily enough.

As long as the maintenance has been kept up on, they are good vehicles and should last quite a while. They are nice to drive and fairly easy to keep up on the maintenance end.

Thanks for your input :thumbsup:

We are in need of a new vehicle ASAP and I think we've decided on the Olds. We're going to look at it on Saturday.

I wish we could afford a Odyssey or a Sienna...and there are no Sedonas or MPVs in our price range within 100 miles of us. Unfortunately we need a new vehicle ASAP and money is pretty tight :(
