Driving a Corolla for now - I miss my Camry!

Dropped my car off at Toyota to get the clunking steering fixed. I requested a loaner and they gave me a brand new (literally) 2008 Corolla CE. It's a nice car and all but it really does not compare to a Camry. Plus that, people keep cutting me off - doesn't happen to me in my Camry!

Driving the Corolla really makes me appreciate my Camry . Just thought TN would be the only place people could relate to me missing my Camry. Can't wait to get it back! The only thing I'll miss on the Corolla is fuel economy. Dang that 1.8L 1ZZ is the most efficient engine ever!

All it takes is driving a Camry to appreciate my old-ass Corolla.

No seriously I love driving the newer Camrys. They are excellent cars and super smooth and quiet even at highway speeds. They're a real pleasure to drive, but they're exceptionally boring. That can be good or bad depending on what you feel like at the time, haha.

I miss my old Camry.

I've wanted to test drive one of the new 2.4L 5-speed Corolla's, although I worry that I may like it more, haha.
