The rise in popularity of the family SUV/crossover throughout the 1990s and early 2000s came at the expense of the tried-and-true station wagon. While wagons were once the go-to vehicle for road-tripping American families, this mantle has since been taken up by crossovers and full-size SUVs. That said, used wagons now represent great value for money, offering up swathes of space and near-endless practicality at a fraction of the cost of a newer utility vehicle or pickup. Just take this well-looked-after 1991 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser Wagon, for example, which is currently being auctioned off via Cars and Bids with no reserve price.
This beautiful B-body wagon, currently located in Lagrange, Ohio, has just 29,300 miles on the odometer and comes with a clean, accident-free CarFax report. According to the lot listing on Cars and Bids, it sold for a reasonable $25,077 when new and was ordered with a rather long list of optional extras, including the available Vista Roof, leather upholstery, automatic climate control and the Towing Package. The 5.0L L03 V8 engine was rated at 170 horsepower and 255 pound-feet of torque from the factory, routing power to the rear wheels only via a four-speed 4L60 automatic transmission.
The current owner made some unique modifications to this Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser, as well, including new 15-inch “Baby Moon,” wheels, a woodgrain-look vinyl wrap and tinted windows. It underwent a major service back in 2016, receiving an oil and filter change, new spark plugs, new diff fluid, a new diff gasket, a new radiator and a new water pump, among more, but has racked up roughly 10,000 miles since then. The oil was last changed in October of 2016 at 22,008 miles.
Bidding for this 19991 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser Wagon sits at $5,902 as of this writing, with six days left before the gavel falls. Check out the listing at this link for more information and photos.

This Custom Cruiser is NOT a Cutlass.
Definitely not a Cutlass.
Also, the traditional wagons were not displaced by SUV’s. They were certainly displaced by the mini-van’s that took off and became so popular. SUV/CUV’s didn’t sell in any big numbers till around 2012 on up, and even then the sedan was still much more popular. The real craze for the SUV/CUV’s began in 2015.
Anyhow, this is a super nice car. Not sure about the caps and huge WW tires, but I could live with the caps if the tires were normal with 1/4″ WW’s instead. Taken care of, that car will run a very long time yet.
Buick and Pontiac had their versions of this huge station wagon. If I remember well, the Buick was the Roadmaster and the Pontiac was the Safari.
No Pontiac, just Chevy, Olds and Buick.
Pontiac ended the Safari after the 1989 model year. It didn’t make the changeover to the new body style.
Now that’s a luxury boat. I always said that olds had the best overall quality of all the GM brands. I wish they were still around.
I’ve owned my ’91 Caprice wagon for 23 years. While the style was polarizing at the time, it still looks modern. One of the first vehicles with flush glass and aero style. Supremely comfortable and practical.
I’ve owned 5 fat GM wags and over 50 various wags, including many Suburbans/Tahoes/Blazers (not really an SW) and other custom/classic utility type vehicles since 1975, and they all were great rides. My custom 92 RMW was featured in the book Americas Coolest Station Wagons
I still have my 1994 dark red metallic buick roadmaster (wood grain) wagon. I t has been in my family for 22 years and I am getting ready to sell it. Anyone interested can send e-mail to [email protected]. Thanks, Charles
Nice car and very unusual. You rarely see this variety of Custom Cruiser. With that said, though, I still prefer the Roady with the LT1 for both style and performance.
MY family has had a 1967 Vista Cruiser , 1973 Custom cruiser , 1978 Custom Cruiser, 1981 Cutlass Cruiser , Great style and dependable Oldsmobile’s . wish Olds was still here today
Oil should be changed at least once annually regardless of the low usage.
Odd that it has not seen an oil change
Since 2016.
