We purchased our Toyota Camry when we were getting ready to have kids. We've never been van or SUV people, so we needed a full-size sedan. We drove many, many cars on the market, and were left cold. Most of them felt like they were too modern, meaning that they tried to cram in gizmos or stylistic things that were flashy, but ultimately not functional. We loved the Camry from the moment we got in it. It is roomy without being a land yacht. It can easily accommodate us, and two car seats, with room to spare for our residential cleaning business supplies (mops, vacuums, step ladders and the like) due to extremely roomy trunk. It rides very smooth, which is a huge plus when you have little ones. It does not have the bells and whistles of some of the other cars we drove, but honestly, that is part of what we really like about this car. We just wanted a basic family sedan, and we got one. It's very reliable with (knock on wood) no major maintenance issues in our years of ownership. We look forward to owning this car for years to come. If we had to purchase another vehicle today, the Camry is the first one we'd look at!

I have had this vehicle for over ten years and have put in almost 200,000 miles on it, and this car is still running strong! It is a fairly easy car to maintain, as my husband has been able to do all oil changes and brake part replacements himself without having to take to a dealership. We got rear-ended by a car a few years ago and took it to the dealership to have the minor repairs done, and the person driving the shuttle to and from the dealership thought my car was only a couple of years old because the look of this car is timeless, and I'd had it around 8 years at that point. The car is very economic, with great gas mileage in the city and on the interstate. Since we have the XLE brand, the interior is phenomenal. Though the "leather" might be fake, it still looks like the interior of a luxury sedan, and has been very durable over the last decade of hauling two kids around in it. The power steering, electric rear-view mirrors, and all interior components work like they are supposed to, with no complaints there. I love the 5-disc CD player, while some might consider it old school, I enjoy being able to have my top five CDs in there and be able to listen to the whole sound tracks, or to listen to audio books on CD while on vacation. Great size car for a family of four!
