Always heard what a great long lasting car Toyota makes

New tranny after 65,000 miles? Yes, dump it immediately.

Yea, I am leaning that way. I haven't made up my mind for certain, but I am leaning towards getting rid of it. Think I am going to start looking at my options on Monday.

I just bought my first Toyota this week...2007 Camry Hybrid. Love this freaking ride....35 MPG

Call a good mechanic, and help him find a transmission from a junk yard for him to install.

I did that and got everything done for $600. And this was a Z71 Tahoe.

Pull a Part.

I'm gonna run my 90 Corolla into the ground and then slap a new motor in it.

If I don't trade it for a 4x4 in a couple years.

I really could give 2 shits about the car I drive. There are much much better things to spend money on, like real estate or home improvements.

Never understood why anyone would want to invest so much money into a product that loses as much value as a vehicle does.

Safety, dependabilty, work requirements???

Then why do people drive festivas.

If I needed a work truck, I'd have a damn fine work truck.

But for getting me back and forth? As long as it runs smooth, I'm happy.

That's cool. You just asked, and I was answering.

Personally I have to have a large SUV, and it has to be in good working order, and in very good condition to perform my job.

I wish that I could have a smaller car thats good on gas...but thats not in the dice.

[Porn Shop Clerk]

Yeah, but you don't have to buy a brand new 40k suv to get that.

Nope, sure don't.

You can get some really nice Yukon Denali's in the mid 20's right now.

If I had my choice, I'd be going with an older Land Rover.

Definitely not the new hot wheels versions.

Cool trucks, no doubt. But with tons of issues, and literally no creature comforts...but a really badass 2nd car...IMO.

Actually, its under warranty and the dealer is replacing it free of charge. Point is that I am doubting the overall quality of the car since I am replacing the transmission at 65,000 miles.

I had a 1981 Toyota pickup. Easiest thing I ever had to work on. The only problem I had that it ran best on Copper core spark plugs. (typical iron core plugs made it ran terrible.) Once a year I had to replace all the copper core plugs because it would eat the electrodes. Then Bosch came out their Platinum plugs and I never replaced a plug again. I drove it 4 years in Minnesota, and the tail gate rusted out. When I moved down here, I bought a new one through JC Whitney and had a friend paint it to match the red of my truck. Drove it a total of 10 years and 122,000+ miles. Other than the fact it didn't have AC, I'm sorry I sold it.

Yeah but creature comforts just turn you into a big whiny sissy.

Plus there's no way I'm gonna have a vehicle that I have to worry about dents, dings and scratches on.
