Once the VW dealers stop suing over Scout, I wonder if they'll get the maintenance contract. Private Equity. They got bought up by an equity firm that also owns either Advance or AutoZone (can't remember which, if you care enough you can google lol). The equity firm decided that there was no point having two brands competing on auto parts sales, so they closed down the PepBoys parts (which sucks because they typically had the best prices of the walk-in parts stores) and made PepBoys service only. In the process, a lot of PepBoys became unsustainable in their current locations because their building footprint was too large for the dollar volume coming through, so many of them closed. This was mid-late Covid era, so a lot of the service departments simply never got rebuilt. Sing it with me now... Private Equity Ruins America. They've been doing that sort of thing for years and maybe the Tesla/Rivian thing will be the one that finally saves them. They were suppose to take over Saturn and Saab service too. I think they had Suzuki for a bit. They were the official service center for Daewoo for like 5 minutes. -

Always liked the 00s Impalas..had many as rentals when I lived in Colorado then Arizona and would travel back to Ohio and elsewhere in the Midwest and East...along w/ Intrepids and 300Ms, Grand Marquis, Town Cars and the occasional DeVille/DTS (and drove my sister's 00 DTS a lot). Don't recall having had a Buick as a rental, but always liked the looks of the 90s-00s Park Avenues.. -

Thoughtful review, and I love the paint scheme. I just don't love it $76,000 worth. He actually likes it.
