I never thought I would own a foreign car. However, I do love my Toyota. I come from a blue collar family. Everyone in my family owns Buicks, Chevrolets or other American made cars. I don't think anyone has ever owned a Toyota. I had my choice of cars when my children decided to pitch in and buy me a car. I felt very lucky and wanted to make sure I bought a car that was low maintenance. I researched all the different makes of cars. I did not have enough for a new car so I had to buy a good used car. I chose Toyota because of their maintenance agreement after the sale. The sales associates were very helpful and answered all my questions. In fact the associates did not encourage me to go into debt for a new car. I am happy now that I don't have a payment.

This is my first foreign car, and I am very happy with it. My favorite cars were always Buicks. However, this Toyota was on sale when I was looking. I have not had to spend one penny on any repairs. I bought it used (32,000) miles three years ago.
