For transporting goods, the Rendezvous has a massive 108.9 cubic feet of cargo volume.

The 2005 Buick Rendezvous CX, the basic model, has some great standards; such as air conditioning, an AM/FM/CD player, leather-wrapped steering wheel, cruise control and power everything. Stepping up to one of the CXL option packages adds many possible additions to comfort and convenience like woodgrain interior trim, dual-zone automatic climate controls, leather upholstery on 6-way power front seats, heated power mirrors, or programmable door locks, just to name a few.

Naturally for such a multi-purpose vehicle, there are a range of free standing optional extras to allow you to tailor your Rendezvous to meet your needs. For example, GPS navigation or a DVD system with 7-inch fold-down screen can be added fop those with an eye for luxuries and state-of-the-art gadgetry.
