Yes, they are a great idea. If you were thinking of buying one, the Buick (most models) is quiet, as are the Lexus (expensive), Ford Flex, Ford Taurus, Toyota Avalon, Lincoln, and a few others. I’m mainly sticking to cars with good reliability and a quiet ride. Audis and Mercedes also ride quetly, but are unrelaible, while Acuras are very reliable, but they are noisy considering the price you pay. Consumer Reports does a good job in classifying how quiet cars are; a solid red ball on their “noise” ratings indicates a quiet car. A half red ball may be acceptable to you. Don’t go for anything less. ---

The posts might have gotten lost to them, or we didn’t give them the answers they were wanting. ---

Its time to require a basic training program & a license before you’re allowed to use the internet for any form of communication with other human beings.
