1.) The terrible theme song that sounds like a 12yo created on a synth board.

2.) The scripts are cringey and cheesy.

3.) The cars suck

Marketing old people cars to the young crowd isn't great?

Their names suck. Grand Marquis sounds like a hotel, not a car. Enclave sounds like a cult. Lacrosse? Not Sabre but LeSabre. Lucerne, Limited...

I like Buicks and I like their commercials.

Olive Garden commercials are the best. I feel like family.

That line has never made any sense to me. I’m so glad someone else noticed it.

it’s sad what’s become of Buick.

pretty much all they make these days are tiny underpowered boxes of shite that most 16 y/o girls wouldn’t drive.

they only care about making vehicles that appeal to the Chinese market .

Buicks are fine in terms of reliability and comfort, they just don't appeal to young or middle age groups at all. I was a little surprised GM didn't ax the brand years back. I think GM should have kept Pontiac instead, and made it a performance-only brand to compete with MOPAR's success. But they ain't ask me

Buicks are huge in China for whatever reason. That's why GM kept it around.

Ahh, the Mercury line of fine Ford products, when a base Lincoln is too expensive, and a regular decked out Ford won’t cut it.

Anyone old enough to remember the Edsel? Ford geared it to someone who didn’t want a Ford, Mercury, or a Lincoln and was priced just below a Lincoln. Besides and ugly front, it was still a Ford at heart.

GM is just as bad. You have Cadillac at the top, then Buick, GMC and the now gone Oldsmobile, Chevy then rounds out the bottom.

You forgot Pontiac baw!

ETA, apparently several other brands have fallen under the GM brand at one time or another including Saturn, Geo, Hummer, Saab, Daewoo, Opel, and Lotus. The last two were sold off.
