I've been a reader of TN for a number of years but decided to join after reading 62 pgs of the recall thread (only took 2 days
).
My first Toyota was a 69 Crown that I bought used in 1972. My next Toyota was an '89 Camry. This model yr is when I started to fall in love with the Camry model. It drove so smoothly that I couldn't believe it was FWD. Back then, most FWD vehicles shifted with a 'clunk'. My wife and I have both owned '94 Camrys -- then an '02 Camry and '05 Camry. Just a few weeks ago, I bought a 1-yr used '09 Camry. I wasn't even looking for a new(er) car but found this '09 on our credit union parking lot at a pretty good price. It didn't have a single scratch on the 'Barcelona-red' paint job and had low miles too (11K). When I saw it had Michelin MXV-4s, I got really interested. Checked out the history of the car and found it was previously owned by a Toyota dealership in N-Central FL and used as a loner car. All the maint was done as scheduled as were the 2 SUA recalls (including flashing the ECM memory).
Just when I thought my next car
WAS NOT going to be another Toyota because of all the negative press, I find myself driving another Camry.
Let us know all about yourself and your car. Break the ice in here.
Every car manufacturer has their problems, and with the state the media is in today I take Toyotas bad press with a grain of salt. Congratulations on the 09 Camry!
