2004 Oldsmobile Alero

Pros: It's loaded, Very durable, super inexpensive maintenance, still looks great, peppy, roomy

Cons: I have to hear "I told you so" from my father-in-law 

The Bottom Line: Since purchasing the Alero, I no longer need Ibuprofen when discussing my wife's car. This is the most pain free car my wife and I have owned to date.

Pros: Attractive 4 door car with sun roof and it was cloth interior.

Cons: It looks like a nice car but it is a piece of junk.

The Bottom Line: Dont think about buying Alero just let it Alero out of your mind.

Review: I had purchased a used Oldsmobile Alero and it was what I thought a great car but it turned out to be a lemon. Every time I inserted the key I had trouble starting the car I would have to jiggle it every time. That was the beginning of a nightmare. Then ...
