She said she doesn't like the CRV as the ride is awful, but she isn't enamored with our hybrid as "you can't hear what it's doing". Almost makes me think I shoulda kept the stickshift car, maybe she would have liked that car some day...My 15 year old (on his permit) loves mine compared to the prii he's otherwise accustomed to.
It's a combination of the traditional "3 box" greenhouse, and the geared auto trans that downshifts with that extra kick in power and noise.
More or less. The 2AZ-FE's were a bit of a fail, and the later 6AT's had some complaints. But they tend to be a bit boring, and the 2011 we had was perhaps just a bit too boring, even for us.I thought Camry's were good cars? Except for the clogged rings on 2007-2009 ish years. For practical transportation, why not buy another?
Indeed. It's not that I'm giving her an option, as much as reducing work for me. She has a pile of afterschool activities, and someone has to pick up/drop off. So she'll get a car that maybe she can take to college... which makes me wish I was getting a hatchback or the like. Still, as a teenager's first car, I view it as a bit of cannon fodder. I'm not spending a lot here.When I was young I would have been ecstatic if my parents bought me ANY CAR. Let alone get picky over a new one. That was never an option. If I didn't pay for it I walked, or took the bus.
Yeah, it was tongue in cheek. Not looking forward to doing another TB but if I have to do one this year, might as well do.You of all people should know that they're about as reliable as it gets.
I haven't looked much for these, I think they are out of my price range, and often rusty.Maybe consider what I just picked up, '06-10' Sonata.
What, so you can swoop in on me? I don't think so!1) Post details of the one you're going to look at.
Just the facts...the cars facts. Omit the location.What, so you can swoop in on me? I don't think so!
No, that would be a terrible choice. 14 yr old hybrid battery, 2AZ oil burner.One of the guys on here, macrose had a mint condition one for sale a few weeks down in Atlanta. He does currently have an 08 Camry hybrid available. Look under "Steve lang" Atlanta craigslist. Here's a picture, 2008 with 132k, good service history. View attachment 125279
It is the generation of the infamous oil sludge... so, make sure the maintenance was done properly (ie 5,000 oci's after the initial 7500 oci's)...and why am I going to look at another one??? haven't I learned my lesson by now?
Daughter needs a car, and of all our fleet, she likes my car the most. !
Feels kinda weird, thinking about buying the same car, again.
Didn't bother with a test drive, price too high relative to my risk I thought. ..
'99 and $2,500. Which to be honest is the new reality, I know, but since I'm not (too) desperate I felt it was best to hold off.What year and what were they asking?
