Gen5 02 Camry Newbie

Hey everyone,

I recently acquired an 02 Camry (V6) as my first "real" car (i.e. not borrowed from parents, not a million years old). What is the best way is to get intimately familiar with this beauty? Does anyone have particular suggestions, books, or sites?

Thanks!

- Sam

P.S. Can anyone help me with replacing my trunk light? I bought a bulb but I'm having trouble putting it in. For some reason the car did not come with one already put in, so I have nothing to work from.

Welcome to TN!

This site is great to get familiar with the car, any questions just do a search and the topic is probably covered...if it isn't make a thread asking the question and you'll get some help and opinions.
