2012 | 4dr Sedan 178-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Toyota consistently in top 5 JD Powers brands. Friends owning Toyota vehicles have had stellar performance. Important for a road car we plan to drive 10 yrs + more around town. I have had good pas luck w/Chrysler but 2012 cars like 200 not fit my needs. see full Toyota Camry review |

Despite the recalls Toyota remains a brand with excellent reliability and dependability. Both the dealer and Toyota have gone to great lengths to ensure I was satisfied before and after the sale. Resale value has been consistently high. see full Toyota Camry review |

Toyota has a reputation for reliability and quality. Although there are a few squeaks and rattles in the car I feel that this car could last the next fifteen years and come out better than many of its competitors. see full Toyota Camry review |

I have owned a used Volvo 544, and a used VW Rabbit, both of which were disasters, and then bought, new, a Corolla which I gave away after 19 years when I bought the Camry. (It is still running.) That told me the reputation was welll-grounded. see full Toyota Camry review |

2012 | 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 215-horsepower 3.7L V6 4-speed automatic RWD |
I was disappointed that this truck didn't meet my expectations but my dealer was very generous. They paid my remaining loan and traded me for a 2012 model basically takeing my truck back and (without charging me) put what I paid on my old truck to my new one that made it possible for me to upgrade big time. I saved over five grand towards my new truck. My new loan is 21k instead of 38k for my new Ram sport. I'm still scratching my head on this. Traded my 2011 Ram ST V6 ext cab. Base price at 26k new. And bought this new truck 2012 Ram 1500 sport hemi V8 Crew cab. Base price 36k. My current loan is at $21,300. Someone wasn't paing attention. see full Ram 1500 review |
