1995 Buick Roadmaster Limited In Depth Review, Start Up, Exhaust, and Test Drive

[@robinlance]

Hi Guy's, I'm the guy that purchased the Roadmaster from Kyle. The odometer now show's 82,500 mi I have done a lot to the car---No worries it's still stock the way the video show's it. When I purchased the car from Kyle's Family Used car lot I drove it home( I lived in Pinehurst NC at that time) I had to replace the whole suspension front and rear bushings and upper lower A arms(since the ball joints where bad and steering links worn) so I replaced it steering box to power steering box. this was a problem with the B and D bodies. What a difference in ride and steering it made I took it on my yearly trip to seattle wa and it was just awesome. got 28 mpg at 70 mph any faster it would drop quick.I had a tune up Done at my local dealership(wires plugs water pump and opitspark) Long story short ran great for a year but 2 of the plug wire's shorted out and fried the whole ignition...Nomore Dealership service I found a great Mechanic and it's in the shop getting it all done plus I purchased Taylor breaded wires( nomore burnt wire on the exhaust manifold) also New fuel pump assembly with sending unit and fuel regulator) all the cooling hose's and a All Aluminum Radiator since my mechanic found the plastic tank's leaking....We are no waiting on a New updated wire harness that GM had a recall and it will be ready to Road trip to Seattle Wa. This is a great car to travel in the only thing left to do is getting the Driver seat Repaired and it will be Done and Awesome. I will update with New pic on Kyle's KZbin channel. Cheer's Robin...

you still have saabkyle04 Buick Roadmaster limited

[@MostlyBuicks]

I thought the 95s already had the upgraded brass terminal. As I understand it, it was the 94s that had the zinc post that tended to cause a fire. I have two 94s and replaced the zinc post with the brass one. (after one of them did a total melt-down, hence my learning of the recall). Yep, any car this old would at LEAST need new control arm bushings. The suspensions tend to be the most ignored aspect on cars. I think I must have rebuilt 2-3 dozen suspensions in my life. The results are very rewarding. Heck, most people don't even ever replace their shocks and/or struts!

I had a 1992 Buick Park Avenue, here in France. Common car for you boys, but here...What a dream it was to slowly cruise in the tiny streets of my french town.I miss her. This one Roadmaster makes my day.Thanks!

Bender Rodriguez Absolutely love the Park Avenues. I currently drive 2012 Nissan Altima, and right now I'm actually looking for a good used Park Avenue (somewhere 97-99 model). My grandmother had one and it was a terrific highway car. Don't get me wrong, I like my Altima, but I think certain Buicks are better as far as driving feel.

"a full in depth review"? Heck, this is the most comprehensive and descriptive presentation I've ever seen on KZbin! You are a master!

[@MostlyBuicks]

Yours has the "Prestige" package for the Limited which includes: Twilight Sentinel, Trunk Pulldown, Cornering Lamps, Memory Seat and Heated Seats, etc. This package was not available in the base model, but available only as an option on the Limited. The acceleration is impressive not only because of the car's 4200+ curb weight, but also because it had tall 2:56 gears!

[@OmarAz-pu5lc]

In addition to the 2:56 gear ratio, didn't it come with the 2:93 gear ratio???

[@MostlyBuicks]

@@OmarAz-pu5lc Yes, with the V92 towing package.

[@johnnyohness]

I am shocked how similar the Roadmaster is to the Cadillac. Same power train and similar body shape. The dash is more plain than the Cad, but all the other stuff is very close. The ww tires and wire hubcaps really spruce up the exterior, giving it a more modern look and less dated for its years. I have never looked that close at the Roadmaster very close, but am shocked what a value it really is. This is truly one of your best reviews ever. It is so refreshing to someone as young as you, appreciating comfort and value above high styling and compromising convenience and comfort. Again...your review was amazing. Has to be one of the best yet.

[@koovidsrcool]

I agree with your last part, I am a young car guy who loves performance and handling etc, but for everyday LA traffic Commuting I want a couch on wheels, no sense in uncomfortable seats and stuff suspension if you spend the majority of your day in bumper to bumper traffic

[@_aj345_]

The caprice/impala, fleetwood, and roadmaster have the same drivetrain and frame the only real difference is the body.

Nevertheless, they sure don't make cars that ride this good anymore. Pity. They weren't called Buick Roadmasters for nothing.

Now I have a 95 Fleetwood and sadly I must say goodbye to the Roadmaster soon. They are excellent cars with an absolute minimum of problems.

Had a cream toned one...it was actually slightly yellow so we called it the Banana. It was a fantastic vehicle. I spent a lot of time on the road being a stockbroker at several bank branches in different towns and driving this vehicle was a joy. It handles like a dream. Had a Lincoln Town Car that couldn't touch the ride or the driving dynamics. It glides for miles. Love, love Loved the comfort of the ride and it didn't get bad fuel economy either. You're one lucky ducky to find that car. It's fantastic.

[@joshbacon8241]

Do you want to know what else is a pity? The fact that GM had to detune the Corvette’s LT1 V8 just so it could be used in the Roadmaster, Fleetwood & Caprice!! I’m sorry, but what good is it when General Motors takes the engine from one of the greatest American sports cars ever (i.e. the Corvette) and puts it in their Roadmaster, Fleetwood and Caprice cars only for them to then detune it in the end?!?! I just don’t get it!

I guess it really masters the roads smoothly.

The Cadillac Fleetwood is the D-Body car which is a stretched B-Body frame. The wheelbase of the Cadillac Fleetwood was 121" over the 116" of this car and the Caprice/Impala.

What really stood out for me in this video was that you included some of the flaws of the car, i know it was your own car and you may not be able to do that with other cars as the manufacturers may get angry or whatever. But if your are able I think it would be a great addition to the videos, giving potential buyers both sides of the story etc. Even so great video as per usual, thank you for making them.

The 305 was not actually used in the Roadmaster. In 91 when the "new" body style Caprice came out it came with a LO3 305ci V8 with a LO5 350ci option. But the 92-93 Roadmaster and Fleetwood had the LO5 350ci standard. In 1994 with the introduction of the Impala SS and the LT1 350 the base model Caprice was given a 4.3L V8 while the Roadmaster and Fleetwood retained the more potent LT1 350 out of the Impala SS.

It's going to be tough to let it go, but this video has definitely made me want a Roadmaster.

[@MostlyBuicks]

Yep, just the opposite that you'd expect, the Caprice is the softest, then the Buick and surprisingly the Fleetwood has the firmest ride of the three. However if you get both the Gran Touring suspension AND the trailer towing suspension on the Buick, you've got the best ride/handling combo in my opinion.
