I 've had many MOPARS over the years, some I should have never gotten rid of. Here is what I have now & I love driving it on a decent day. It's been well taken care of & it's all factory paint, V8 5-speed. P.S. ALL SRT8s are awesome too in my book. Is Douglas anywhere near Georgetown, Texas? My Brother & Sister in-law live there.

Not my actual car, but Identical to it. 1999 Toyota Camry CE. Bought it used for 13k in 2003 right after the dude paid it off. Invoice shows that he paid almost 30k for it new back in 99. Love the car.....good body, runs like a top and minimal repair history. When the time comes, I will mechanically certify it and donate it to someone less fortunate. Will break my heart to see it go.

I can't wrap my head around why someone would buy a new car and then sell it after the last payment was paid.... That logic is a guarantee that he'll never stop working because he will be saddled with car payments for the rest of his life... It just doesn't make sense..
 
Those older Camrys are some of the best cars ever built.
We inherited a 1995 from mother-in-law when she passed. Drove it for 10 more years. Thirty years old and was super reliable.
I had people fighting over it when I put it up for sale a few months ago.

I’ve had two Of them. First was a 97XLE I bought brand new with a V6 that I put 250,000 on before giving to my stepson, who trashed it out and then sold it.Never dropped or used any oil and A/C was on its original charge and working great when I got rid of it. The one I own now is a 2011 XLEV6 that has 260,000 miles roughly, but is starting to have some AC issues but other than that, it’s the same as far as reliability. On the V6, some years have chains and some have belts, always try to get the ones with the chain so you don’t have to change the belts at the recommended 70K maintenance cycle. I’d rather daily drive these to work back-and-forth and suffer the commuter abuse than my hot rods. I’m going to be retiring full time in the next 2-3 months and concentrate on getting my Duster finished. just my two cents.
