VALUE-PRICED CAR INSURANCE FROM THE COMPANIES YOU CAN TRUST!

Jumping into the SUV fray with its sights trained squarely on the Lexus RX 300 and the new Acura MDX, Buick hopes the Rendezvous' combination of style, luxury, room and a much lower sticker price than its competition will translate into a fair share of this increasingly-popular market.
Available in either front- or all-wheel drive, the Buick 'ute is propelled by GM's workhorse 3.4-liter V6. Output figures of 185 horsepower and 210 foot-pounds of torque are respectable, but considerably less than its rivals. A four-speed automatic is the only transmission available. Fuel mileage is rated at 19 mpg city/24 mpg highway (for front-drivers) and 17/22 for all-wheel-drivers. An independent rear suspension promises a smooth ride along with agile handling and four-wheel disc brakes with antilock technology are at the ready to arrest the momentum of the two-ton SUV.
Two trim levels of the Rendezvous are offered: the base CX and the up-level CXL. The CX can be had in either front- or all-wheel-drive, whereas the CXL comes only with all-wheel drive. Front-drive Rendezvous can be had with full-range (all-speed) traction control. All-wheel-drive models have GM's Versatrak system that operates in a front-drive mode except when slippage is detected, in which case, power is automatically sent to the rear wheels.

Shopping around is the #1 way of saving money on car insurance. Are you sure you're getting the best deal possible with your current insurance company? Youve just moved. Are you paying too much for your auto insurance? Your new address makes this the perfect time to find out, as rates can change when you move, and you have to update your policy anyway. Why might your rates change at your new address? Because rates in various locations differ for various reasons. For example, auto insurance rates in rural communities are almost always lower than those in large urban centers. You may be moving to a new state, and your current auto insurance company may not be a licensed insurance provider in that state, or if they are, the rates they offer may be much higher. Certain states have higher insurance rates than others due to the percentage of claims filed. States like New Jersey, Washington D.C., New York and Massachusetts typically have the highest average insurance rates. It can also cost more to settle claims in certain areas, and this can add to the cost of your insurance premiums. Expensive cars cost more to repair or replace, and wealthy urban communities will sometimes have higher average car insurance rates. Regardless of whether youre moving to a new state or just across town, now is the perfect time to compare multiple car insurance rates and find the lowest one. Rates can differ by hundreds of dollars from company to company. Insurance rates differ greatly between cars. If the car is safe and performs well in crash tests, is not frequently stolen, and/or has certain safety or anti-theft features, it will generally cost less to insure. If the car is flashier, has a history of being frequently stolen, or is more expensive to repair, you can bet your insurance rates will be higher. Retirement is often a good time to reexamine your auto insurance policy. Many auto insurance companies offer discounts to drivers 55 and over. Ever been chatting with a friend or colleague about car insurance rates and realized that they paid way less than you? While rates can differ from consumer to consumer based on numerous factors, you very well may be paying too much for your auto insurance.
Mileage: Most leases are written to allow a certain number of miles each year. Often, dealers offering low-cost leases cash in by setting this mileage limit low -- say, 10,000 miles annually.
Early-termination tangle: Some dealers lure customers into a new lease by touting their ability to get you out of your existing lease before its term is up. And they can, but you'll pay dearly.
Residual-value: A critical factor in leasing a car is called the residual value -- how much it will be worth when the lease ends. A lower residual value means higher monthly payments.
Down-payment: Many lease ads boast about low monthly payments while hiding a huge down payment figure in the fine print.
Purchase-price: Some dealers try to entice you into a contract by comparing the payments you would make under a lease agreement to the payments you would make to purchase the car.
