230K miles in three years. That's 77K per year. That's 210 miles per day. Wow! Perfect car for Uber and Lyft driving. I could see this baby reaching 500K.
Well said!
Did u do transmission oil change or flush at 70K or 100K ?
@@DOUGLASMAVAREZ75 oil changes every 10k miles (now every 5k miles)
Transmission fluid
1st transmission fluid change at 155k
2nd at 186k
3rd at 265k
Same dealership, still have all receipts
@@stevenfedorov Have you ever replaced the vacuum pump for the brake booster. Some say it's a maintenance item every 100k. I'm not sure about this 🤔
@@lanesworld4000 no I haven’t
I’m a living witness to this I have the exact same year and model. I’m currently at 197,636 and still feels like I just drove it off the lot.💯
Way to go bro, keep going! ✊
Same here, I'm at 183k
Did anyone have to replace their vacuum pump yet? 2.5L
@@lanesworld4000 Not me only thing I’ve replace on this vehicle was brake pads and a battery.
I have a 2012 Camry SE with 167,000 miles, and like you said, it drives like a new car. Very solid built vehicles.
My 13 camry has 167k miles and no issues at all! :) how’s you’re . I drive mine every day . 1 hour to get to work and 1 hour back home
The new cars, crammed with all that electronics, I don't know if it will last 10 to 15 years
did you have a problem with torque converter transmission? 07 with 139k here.
@@818guy6 07 with 139k. just did rear brakes.
@@subaruamazon nice brother 💪🏽
My 2013 Camry has almost 300K miles! Still running like a beast 💪🏻😎
Great to hear Camry is going strong!
What have you fixed up to date? Im sure the starter had gone out.
@@troytruong8246 my 2005 had orig starter alternator and front end at 300k at time of sale . Started everytime
@@Brsrafal i doubt it. Lol
@Troy Truong it's a toyota, 300k with no major repairs is not unusual at all
I knew this dude had to be a rideshare driver because I'm like how does it have over 200k already? 😂😂
Yup guilty as charged lol
either that, or a courier driver... 🙂
@@steelfan81 / perhaps he did put all those miles on the car...I have a 2012 Camry XLE, with 121k on it,and it runs great.
My 2006 Toyota solara has 212k and it’s still running strong, I just stay on top of regular maintenance. I will get a new Camry once the prices come down cause it’s ridiculous at the moment
@@the_truth50 prices on camrys aren't too bad. Find a dealer that won't do silly market adjustment increase. But you just can't go wrong with them!!!
Nice video man, I just hit 60,000 on my 2020 SE, glad to see you have relatively minimal problems with the high mileage. Would love to see more videos about the car!
Brother I am so glad it’s not just me. I have a 2019 Camry XSE. I bought it brand new and I am catching up with you at 226k. I am not a Uber or Lyft driver, however I do travel a lot and basically drive it wherever I go. She is my daily driver and I drive an hour and 7 minutes to work everyday one way. I have gotten 44 miles a gallon on the hwy in normal mode and as high as 51 mpg on the hwy in eco mode. I won’t trade it. Toyota continues to ask me. Just like you I replace tires more than anything. I’ve only replaced one hub bearing on the driver front. I did my brakes at 208k. My original set at that. I didn’t need rotors just pads. I’ve done oil changes, trans flushes, coolant flushes, 2 tune ups, and two serpentine belts……. THAT’S ALL I miss and rode thru a light flood which killed my battery. I replaced the battery but no rebuild on the engine/trans, I still have my original radiator, water pump, thermostat, and alternator. I RECOMMEND THIS CAR FULLY
Wow I’m impressed, thanks for the comment
Camry is a true friend that never put you down. It's been part of my life as far as I remember.
just bought my first one in 18. it was a good decision.
I have a 2021 Camry SE, it's still mostly the same car you have. It has around 56,000 miles on it. It's a champ. I have yet to see anything I dislike about it.
This was very helpful. Seeing the wear on the seats after 5000 rides, wow, they still look new. I'm saving for the 2020 model. I've always enjoy the long term reviews. thanks for posting.
Just bought a 2019 Toyota Camry SE last month with 61k miles, drives amazingly and it’s good to know that it’ll last me a long time!
Mee too
How much you get it for
I own a 2005 LE that I bought in 2017 with 50k for $6900. I now have 191k on it. And besides wear and tear items ie tires, alternator, battery and throttle body cleaned and struts; the car has been
bulletproof. I plan to keep it as a backup car. And I will purchase an SUV or later model Camry or Avalon next year.
Thank you so much for this important video! I also have a 2019 Camry SE bought new in November 2018 but about 200,000 fewer miles than yours so it's good to know you and some of those commenting below are getting 200,000+ miles on the 8th generation Camry without major problems. I also am impressed that your seats and interior are holding up so well in a rideshare situation. Having low mileage I still have the original tires and battery, the only original part replaced (other than oil, filters, wipers) is the fuel pump that was replaced in the factory recall last year. It's good to hear the bearings, struts, alternator, rotors, pads, etc. tend to last a long time. Though my mileage is lower I have driven this car 4 years and it's been trouble free. My biggest complaint is how the transmission shifts at lower speed but you get used to it.
Mine is not a hybrid and I assume the ones mentioned in the comments below aren't either. I wonder how well the hybrids are holding up after 200,000 miles. Anybody got a lot of miles on a hybrid 2018+ Camry? Just curious, I didn't want to gamble on a hybrid, a lot more to go wrong.
Yes I agree I’m kinda skeptical on hybrids because I feel like the engine switching from electric to gas may be a problem. I’d rather have either all electric or just gas powered car
Also I heard that the hard shifting at lower speeds is just from Toyota having a memory shift so the car adjusts to how you drive. After the shifts adjust to your driving and you accelerate differently, the car tends to jerk. Only way to fix it is with a special scanner to reset the shifting
@@stevenfedorov Yes, and the battery starts deteriorating from day one, plus all those other extra parts. I don't hear much about high mileage 8th gen hybrid Camrys so wonder if the battery can go 200,000 miles. With a hybrid you save lots of money on gas in city driving but if you have a major hybrid system problem then repairs could wipe that out plus you have to decide if it's wise to fix it or just junk it. I didn't want to go down that path so got the regular gas model.
@@stevenfedorov True, normally the shifting isn't a problem, it's when the computer gets confused whether to select 2nd, 3rd or 4th gear after you slow down then accelerate abruptly. I've heard the 2022 model has shifting programmed better , so wonder if shifting could be reset better in the 2018-21 Camrys. Og well there's always the paddle shifters!
I got mine on November 2nd, 2018, also. I have 183k
Nice video. I bought the 2019 Camry XSE in 2019. Great car, bought with 6 miles and just turned 29000. I love it. I also own 2 more vehicles so my Camry is only driven every 3rd month.
My 2019 Camry XSE has 75,000 miles and I got it in July 2019. Good to know it still runs like new with 200k miles.
Kinda jealous because you have the XSE model, it’s a v6 right?
@@stevenfedorov nah…4 cylinders
i bought a used 2010 camry se 2.5. started uber at 30k miles for 3 years and at 134k miles, spark plugs, 2 sets brakes and tires and i went through 2 oil change every 3 months i have an all season for summer and winter tires for the snow and its a great car all year round . i had a tire pop on me at 2am and had to call AAA to let them put on a spare ha , having AAA is a must have when you doing ride share . pretty much the car pay for itself the first year of uber i couldnt see myself buying a new car and using it for uber
That’s awesome man! I hope you continue to be safe in what you do.
Thank you, I will
I have a Toyota camry hybrid 2019 luxury with 113.000kms Consumption 4,5lts I can only say wonders of this magnificent car🥳🇵🇹🇵🇹
Wife bought a theft recovery 2019 SE very similar to yours w low(45k) miles. We've been very impressed with the car. Similar mpg to yours especially on highway.
Bought it off copart?
Bought a certified 2017 SE with 66k miles this past summer. Thing rides like it's off the showroom floor. Here I thought my Camry had a lot of miles for the year but this is great to see how well yours is doing! Once you buy a Camry, you just don't want to drive anything else really.
My mom had a Camry she serviced that thing rigorously. Once it hit 190k it started burning oil. On the other hand my dads corolla hit 241 with zero problems whatsoever
Facts. Just got my first Camry. 2022 SE AWD Nightshade. I can’t stress enough how much I love that car.
Truth! I traded in a Charger R/T for my Camry, and I’m still shocked at how much more I love the Camry. I’m probably never driving anything else from here on out.
How about the Honda Accord?
@@ivantrudeau8974 I would buy one of those too with no hesitation. Just buy a brand new one and keep it for 20 years with no issues
My 2020 XSE came with a bad left rear shock and ate up 2 tires before I figured it out. Replaced with new KYB's and good to go. Hit 81K on her yesterday. Love that car.
What did Toyota say about that issue?
@@LetMeEatDem Toyota said let’s go places
Im about to hit 100k miles in a used 2019 i picked up. Going on a road trip this summer so this review was helpful. Thanks!
I’m not a driver and I have a 2002 Camry with 196,000 miles. I’ve replaced the catalytic converter and other than routine maintenance that’s all. It runs great and no leaks, dents, or rust.
07 with 139k here. i love 00 and 01. if anything ever happened, i would get one of those.
I have a 2008 Toyota Camry at 91,000 miles and am happy to know that it can probably go another 100,000 like nothing. But a Camry is what I really want.
Hi Steve! I’m rideshare driver too and I have exactly the same car as yours. I got 228k on my car and still running good. The only issues that I had it was my bearings, brake pads, rotors and suspension. I had to replace the sway bar link and bushings which cost almost 1k (labor and parts)
Highway robbery 400 max for parts and labor with a 19 Camry how do I know? Cause I have one
Yea I feel like I might have to change brake and rotors soon because they are making a noise. Now I’m at 245k miles gonna change oil soon, would be interesting to see what the dealership will say this time 😅🫣
@@stevenfedorov Maybe I missed it in your video but at what mileage are you changing your oil and what brand and weight of oil are you using? I have a 2018 xse purshased new with a little over 32,000 miles that I really want to make it last a loooooooog time
@@bradterry9207 I change my oil at dealership, they don’t ask me what oil to use but the only oil that works with the car is 0w-16 full synthetic. It’s written under the hood as well “0w-16 oil only”. I change my oil every 10k miles but last time I changed my oil, I got an oil sticker that says “check oil more frequently” so idk maybe I’ll start changing oil every 5k miles
@@stevenfedorov ok thanks
I just bought a 2020 Camery SE, this video makes me feel better about my purchase. I'll never own another Ford Fiesta.
Great video Steven. Glad you are happy with your Camry. I have the exact same 2020 Camry but mine is LE and I've only driven it to 15K miles on it so far. Overall a very reliable car but sadly I am noticing some minor quality issues that never happened on my 2007 SE.
1) Interior rattles and buzzes during summer and cold winter (plastic door panels, dash, front AC vents).
2) Uneven hood and trunk panels, unacceptable for a brand new car, causing the edges on these panels to chip their color when they touch ice
3) The ECU is loud during winter. It slightly buzzes when I hold my brakes (Toyota said it is normal).
4) Just like in your video, the rear center seatbelt beeps whenever there are passengers in the left/right zone, I have to always tuck it.
Overall I am a bit disappointed with the car, a lot of quality cuts in this generation. The new Lexus ES250 will be my next choice for sure.
Yes I noticed the seatbelt beep right away it’s a pain with my riders. I have to always keep it buckled. One trick I noticed is when I pick up riders, I don’t park the car, I simply wait until they get in the car while the car is in drive. It beeps less often.
Also I start noticing some buzz noise coming from the driver front wheel side. It sounds like how you explained it.
Anyway thanks for the comment, really helps 👍
@@stevenfedorov always put in drive when doors are open.
The ECU is loud? How do you know it's the ECU?
I agree. Toyota has not improved the quality of their vehicles but each year has made them inferior instead of superior. The bottom line is about MONEY $$$, quality and safety are next to last. My next choice could be a Mazda. Lexus is part of Toyota, I would not bother. LE = Lame Excuses.
Great video I had a 2001 Toyota Corolla LE bought certified in 2002 with 17k miles for $10,500. Had a 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid bought new August 2006 for $24,000 and 2012 Toyota Camry SE my Pop bought new since he liked mine so much. Toyota builds great vehicles. Looking forward to my next Toyota daily driver. My Toyota Camry Hybrid had rear AC and Heat vents since 2007 only the Toyota Camry XLE and now days Toyota Camry Hybrid XLE have rear AC vents in the back of the console where yours has the bin area.
Yea I wish mine had vents in the back but it is what it is 🤷🏻♂️
I thought it was an option or package? On lower models in 2023
@@WINDSORTOWNSAV it is. It’s called the audio package which gives dual climate and rear air vents in all trims except TRD
@@othomas3061 Yea, I have a 2023 and I have vents in the back
My '18 Camry XLE(3.5L V-6) is easily the best car I've ever owned. Only 63,000 miles so far, but the Camry goes to Florida and Arizona every year. 35-36 mpg on trips, unless I set the cruise at 85 mph, then it dips to 31-32 mpg.
31 mpg @ 85 mph ? 😮 wow , all by yourself ? Or did you have people too ?
@@curiouspeople6441 : My wife and I. July, A/C running, mildly hilly terrain. If I keep around 70 mph, mpg jumps to 36-37.
@@curiouspeople6441bruh why u gotta let them enjoy their car
v6 is great engine
Beware of Water Pump and Oil Leaks with the 1st iteration 8th Gen. Camry. Also, the Panoramic Roof. When driving to-from FL and AZ. always be on the lookout for snipers shooting at vehicles on the highway and hidden cops trying to meet their monthly speeding ticket traffic quotas. Going through Texas is always risky. Don't speed thru Midland TX but you can only at High Noon.
Nice video, pls keep us updated on your journey it’s fascinating.
Thank you 🙏🏻
I just lost my 2015 Toyota Camry XSE V6. 😞 some girl ran a red light and t boned me. I had that car for 3 yrs and loved every minute of it. It was extremely fast and reliable.
Sorry to hear that 😢
what did u do? 07 with 139k here. i like 2015 body style. and the 00 01's as well.
Brooo.... I got 139 k on an 05 xle 3.0 v6 man. And honestly I feel like most would be surprised how well it still runs. It has had some extensive maintenance over the last 18 years but wow 200 k on 3 years
I have purchased Toyota Camry/Aurion combustion engined vehicles for thirty years. The last three have been new V6 models. The 2021 SL model Camry is by far the best yet. The quality, reliability and performance of these vehicles has been outstanding, particularly over long distances in the Australian climate. The 1998 CSX Camry is now owned by my daughter, with 256,000 km on the clock. I have owned other new brands in the past and will remain with Toyota. Given the opportunity I will happily trade up to a new hydrogen model, as I’m confident with Toyotas technical prowess to develop this technology.
this guy's energy is on another level 🌋🌋
yeah I try to stay optimistic lol
Nice to know at 200K no major problems. Thanks for sharing. 52K on my 2018 SE
No problem 👍
We also have a 2019 Camry SE but ours has a sunroof. We're driving under 4k per year. 228k miles would take 57 years. Hope it lasts that long. Thanks for a great video.
Oh yeah definitely! With that many miles you don’t need to worry a lot about maintenance
My 2017 Lexus ES350 just hit 40k miles after 6 years 2 months of ownership. Bought her at 2 miles on the odometer. Now waiting for the next ten Lexus ES hybrid and my college son with inherit the Lexus ES350.
About 3 months ago. I test drove a 2019 Toyota Camry LE White in Color. The dealership let me take it home for the weekend. I fell so in love with that Camry. It drove and ran great👍. It had 80,000k miles on it. Awesome Car. But I decided not to buy right now and keep my 2015 Toyota Corolla LE with about to roll a 138,000k miles.
Good choice man ! Take care of it and it will run forever
sold cars in college. puppy dog close. like a puppy you cant let it go. 07 camry 139k. i like those corollas. i think they have a little better engines.
Hope you have many more safe and happy miles!
I'm a lyft driver doing rental so I'm definitely getting camery
Thanks for the information! I am a 2015 Toyota corolla owner myself and I have 78K miles but for a car that's turning 8 years old this year it rides like new. I hoping to get it to 200K miles. Now that we have a video about your car we should get a break down on how lich money you've made with it
Right on!
great review I have a 05 Toyota 230k miles still going strong looking for a new Camry now
07 with 139k here. you can get 300k easy out of ur car. id run it into the ground.
I did 300k miles in my altima the 1st 3 years from late 17 to 20. Currently at 413k miles now.
What year is your Altima?
@@stevenfedorov 2016 but hot it new in early 2017
i cant believe it.
@@subaruamazon I'm at 420k now
@@occckid123 wow. nissans dont have the best rep. I m surprised. I have rented them in the past. almost bought a used one. the one think nissan does well is they know how to ride nicely over any roads.
I would recommend transmission service. Drain and fill every 20k, and also brake fluid flush every 50k, also engine coolant flush with water pump and trimming belt due to that many miles just as preventive maintenance
Thanks for the video. I have a 2019 Camry also. Bodes well for the future.
Right on!
Thanks buddy. I had driven a 2020 camry SE as a loaner car, worried that the transmission would be a problem. Constantly shifting around, even at highway speeds, worried I would kill it. Must faster car than my 09 camry, even though I have a 5 speed manual. I would be interested in knowing your maintenance schedule/routine. My 09 just turned over 200K also, but is starting to get rusty underneath so will need a new/used car next year.
Majority of my maintenance is oil changes every 5k miles.
Started doing transmission fluid change every 30k miles
Coolant needs to be changed every 50k miles
Alternator every 300k miles 😂 I know now
Wheel bearings preferably before 300k miles ( you will hear them grinding)
Bro, your car is proof this new generation of Camry’s are 💯 reliable! My 21 SE has 28k miles right now. Just curious, did you ever change your transmission fluid? I want mine to hold up as long as yours. 👍
Yes all fluids were changed at the dealership. If God allows, I will try to hit 1 million miles on this Camry. Just have to keep up with maintenance
@@stevenfedorov I hope you make it. New car prices and gas prices really take a chunk out of the pay check. Please update us every 100,000 miles. Good luck :):)
My 2018 Camry XSE V6 has 106K miles no issues drives like new.
@@haroldho19 will do! ;)
@@andrewbcastilloo what is the engine oil type i live in desert with very toasty weather and am afraid to use 0w16. Am thinking about 0w20
I have a 2018 SE J Vin code, made in Japan, not 4 code made in US. Just hit 92K miles. Literally have not had a single issue. Keep up with maintenance and fluids and they will last forever.
Glad to see that the Toyota Camry is still reliable
Yup, still driving
I agree, I internally cry everytime its time to replace my tires every year and a half😭. Im currently fixing my fender due to a hit and run. $100 for a new fender is CHEAP, but some how a new headlight is $900 but its fine because the light stayed in place and only cracked the shell on the side and not the whole light.
Yea some parts on new Camry can be pricey but I didn’t know that a front bumper was only $100. That’s not bad at all
Light is cheaper on Facebook. I got my trunk with the lights for that price.
Doing Lyft/Uber FT is tough on you and a vehicle. But if you change your oil, brakes, tires, suspension as needed, it will keep on keeping on.
Yo glad to see you like your Camry so much. This is the same one I’m trying to get, 2019 and above SE (for the CarPlay).
Some people say the transmission shifts weird at lower speeds on the SE’s but I also heard you can get it fixed with an update from the dealer. How’s it shift for you? And can you see out the back decently? How comfortable is it? I also do full time rideshare/food courier work. Sorry for all the questions, I really want this car but also want to know everything I can about it. I drove an 04 Accord V6 for almost 2 decades so I’m excited to see how far cars have come!
Well, I come from driving Hondas (99’ civic, 15’ fit, and 2000 Honda Accord) and I just say this is the most reliable car I had. It was a big change for me but a Toyota is all that I want from now on as a daily.
Sometimes the shifts jerks when driving from a stop at the stop lights but I just try to drive softly and it’s fine. My guess this car wants you to redline to get a smoother takeoff from standstill or that might be the transmission slipping idk honestly. I did floor it a good amount of times but it still drives fine.
And yes the visibility is great, you see everything around the car. Only time it’s hard to see is if you had a dark tint and you are driving at night. You might hits some curbs (don’t ask how I know 😅)
Also it’s quite comfortable, someone said they didn’t like the seats but I’m fine with it. I always get compliments from riders and even my wife likes it!
@@stevenfedorov get the update it’s so much better and easier to drive!

I have a 2007 Toyota Camry XLE V6 best car I ever owned it has 198k miles on it basic maintenance keep driving it till the wheels fall off
07 se with 139k. how are the sixes?
Hey great video and info but I’m wondering have u ever changed ur axle/ cv and ur struts and shocks.
Not yet
Congradulations on 200,000 miles. That Toyota gas engine is the finest engine ever made. Highly likely its good for another 300,000 miles. 1. When did you change engine oil. Every 5,000 miles or at some other mileage point. 2. Who did the oil change, a) You the owner, b) a Toyota Dealer an c) Indy Garage 4.) was Toyota oil and Toyota oil filter always used for the oil change. 3. Have you performed a cylinder compression test on each cylinder in the last few months.
1) first I started changing oil every 10k miles now I start doing it myself every 5k miles
2) First the dealership did my oil changes, then a shop Menieke, now I do my oil changes
3) No I haven’t done a cylinder compression test, not sure why I would need to honestly
Good video man, thanks, a question which grade of gasoline you used?
The cheapest one 😂 still do to this day
They’re some good cars I got 338,000 on my 2014 se and still drive like a brand new car
Wow you way past me, I got some catching up to do
@@stevenfedorov yeah bro they’re the most dependable cars!!!
Hey great car I just got my 23 se .Did you ever change the transmission oil.
Oh yeah I did, 3 times to this day but that wasn’t enough. Transmission fluid needs to be changed between 30k-60k. If you don’t change in those intervals, there’s a chance the transmission can go out! My first change was at 155k miles and what a good mechanic would’ve said “not worth changing it at that interval”…dealership recommended it at that time 🤦♂️
great straight forward video thanks
Dang he got over 200,000k on his Camry? And I thought I was bad...lol I bought my 2018 in 2019 she had 34,000 Miles on her. Now I have 112,040 on her. Unfortunately I haven't had the best of luck with mine. Alot of weird issues, also had a hit and run back in 2020. Found out my car was in a previous accident before I became owners. Which now makes sense even before my accident there was things going on. I'm ready to trade her in. My 2nd Camry and both have been unreliable. But the new styling is Sharp and I get plenty of compliments and looks.
My 2007 Camry has 289,000 miles on it and has only needed basic maintenance.
How are the cloth inserts in the seats holding up? Any stains?
My 2015 Civic has only 102k miles but it’s a good car too 🎊🙌
Wow😂❤ I got 2018 toyota camry le. Now, it is at 83,000 thousand miles, but when bought it when it was at 46,000, and they are truly reliable. Is the best car that I bought? Toyotas are good cars.
Thank you for sharing your experiences with your Camry. We have a 2023 Camry LE that we love very much. It’s a great car also I appreciate you sharing the Bible verse at the end.
Thanks for sharing!
After 200k miles ? And Running still on OEM starter ? Wow 🤩
Starters don’t really go out anymore on any car even at high miles.
Camry it's legendary for a reason 💪
Thats insane my 2009 camry has that milage now !
love it love it
Do you deliver food too? I thought about doing that in my ‘19 Camry Le and I don’t want to create a large maintenance bill, plus I brake gently and try to look ahead wherever steering (smith system). Also, do you pick up people that don’t need to go far? If you deliver food, do you take the shitty pickups too? Or are you really picky? I just want to find a way to make extra money.
No, I don’t deliver food and honestly I don’t want to because I keep having to cancel my rides because restaurants are either closed or renovating and coffee spills in my car …not fun
I just take people now.
I’ll put it this way, I accept all ride request. Cheap ones and long ones because I keep my rating higher that way. Yes some rides pay little but overall, with bonuses, it’s not too bad.
I like being able to take long rides with Lyft compared to short food deliveries.
My best recommendation is stick with one ride share company and keep your ratings high. You will make more money that way
Dude I have one and it only has 44,000 miles on it and it’s a 2019. This car is going to last me forever he is so right Toyotas are so good I see the Psion X be one of the newer versions and it had over 350,000 miles on it I was like Bro no wonder why my friend turbo this car the engines are so good
I’m looking to become apart of the Toyota family. I want a Camry or a Avalon. I currently have a ‘14 Nissan Altima. Bought it cash on Jan 1st, 2021. They are known for having HORRIBLE cvt transmissions. My Altima hasn’t gave any problems yet but I don’t wanna wait and find out. So I’m looking to get a Toyota in Jan 2023 after my 2 year mark with the Altima! Leaning towards the either a 2019 or 2020 Camry. They seem to be cheaper than the Avalon’s.
The Avalon is discontinued
The Avalon drives more like a Lexus (with a punchy V6 but buttery smooth suspension on the XLE and Limited trim level) than the Camry. But the Camry is also a good choice (very economical with the 4 cylinder engine.)
@@hohepunktz6778 Yes! I most likely will be leaning towards a Camry. Just don’t know what trim level I want yet. I’m just ready to leave Nissan!
@@DonRashad if you’re on a budget then the LE (for soft ride) or SE (Sporty ride) would be your choice. However, if you spend a little more you’ll be happy with the XLE (Soft ride) or XSE (Sporty Ride) with the Leather seats and premium sound system (JBL) and Navigation. Either way, you’ll be satisfied if the Camry was maintained well.
Crown replaced Avalon
Thanks you this information. I drive 150 a day. I'm looking some reliable.
the miles per gallon are amazing!
Hey Steve what oil change interval have you been doing? The factory recommends every 10k but I plan on sticking to every 5k. Any other fluids like trans, brake, or coolant?
We change every 5k in ours and will change transmission fluid soon. Only 45k on it.
I change oil every 10k, just did an oil change yesterday. I got an oil sticker that said “check oil level more frequently “ I guess I should keep an eye on the oil from now on lol but so far I’ve already did all fluids flushes once. I’m not exactly sure what interval the coolant needs to be replaced tho.
@Steve’s Fundamentals every 10k ? Damn your lucky your car has lasted that long then. A toyota master tech did a video on he's youtube channel about a camry with low miles(for a toyota) way less then 150k or so miles needing an engine replacement Due to the owners doing oil changes every 10k. They Said the same thing oh the dealer said so the manual said the oil bottle said so.. its a modern engine lol anyways the video is on The Car Care Nut, tittle is the important of doing oil changes, something like that if you wanna check it out (: he already did a transmission, rear def, transfer fluid change on my 22 camry that was a while ago and it only has now 25k miles lol. I change my own oil every 2k miles NOT because it needs it but because I love doing it. I Use pennzoil ultra or amsoil premium only. To each their own. Nice video bro 👌 peace out. ✌️
Regarding climate control you can set 75 and push AUTO button and forget about AC button, it will maintain that temp by itself. It will turn AC on/off if needed by itself.
I haven’t used that button in a while because when I do set it to auto and 75 degrees, sometimes I feel like I’m not getting enough air. But yeah you are right, it does keep the temperature stable
I just traded my 22 Camry SE AWD and got a 22 Honda Accord 2.0 10 Speed I did love the Camry but I wish the interior was more updated and had a better plush interior instead of having to buy a Lexus for higher end panels and interior trim I also wish the Camry had faster pickup as the 2.0 Turbo Accord is a very fast car Especially with the torque and Turbo Faster than a V6 302 HP TRD But with that said I do love Toyota vehicles and their technology is great making them very reliable vehicles and I love the body style and nightshade makes the white ones look great 👍 ❤❤😂Especially as other color options as well
That’s awesome, the 2.0t accord will be a special car because 2022 is the last year for that engine in the Accord.
@@toddlehman1 4 Sure Sad the direction Honda took in 23 when they had a solid 10th gen you think they would have made it faster and better not dropped a solid engine and solid 10 speed for a CVT Seems they going backwards because of fuel economy I will pay a little more in gas for a lot more excitement in a 2.0T
Great review.
Have you ever gotten transmission fluid changed?
do you use the recommended 0w16 oil? any oil burning? my 23 rav4 with the same engine as your camry says to use 0w16 but it just seems really thin, if your 300k mile camry has no issues with it that will make me relax
Yes I use full synthetic 0w-16 and no the oil doesn’t burn
Hello @Steven, do you still have tihis car ? I just spotted a 2018 with 132.3521 miles and the dealer wants 13000 dollar for it. What do you think ? it is certified used
I have a 2014 Toyota Avalon with 400k miles. I put a used engine and new hybrid battery.
I’ve got a 19 avalon with 40k. Hopefully the new toyotas will last for years to come.
I’m sure they will
Did you have to pay the $2,500 deductible? Plus the downtime or did you rent to drive? How expensive was that? Must have been brutal on revenue.
I worried about the softex leather..also How many busted tires & rims driving SE/XSE? Thats what i worried about and got 2024 LE and expect tires to be cheaper vs SE. I expect to be doing about 30-33k miles per year driving uber on weekends.
My insurance doesn’t cover mechanical damage so I took a big hit on that. No I didn’t rent a car it would have turned out $0 net profit if I did that. I ended up taking a week off while my car was in the shop. It’s same thing like running a business, you win some and you lose some
Have you changed transmission fluid?
Yes all fluids were changed at dealership
Hey man just came across your video what hitch did you use?
Uhaul, they installed it for me
Just purchased a 2019 Camry SE with 59k miles!
Very nice video. Anyone know why the RPM needle moves slightly like that? My 2015 Camry did that and I could never figure out why. Is it a spark plug thing?
Possibly, but when I changed my spark plugs it still kinda does the same thing
How often do you change the oil? The dealer and owners manual are telling me on my 2023 camry that I should change the oil every 10,000 miles.
I used to change mine every 10k miles because my dad kept saying that but there’s a mechanic (the car care nut) he would tell you to change it every 5k. So now I start changing my own oil every 5k miles so I wouldn’t have to change my engine one day. That would be an extremely expensive repair bill! 😬
With 228,241 miles the average price paid: $15,259 compared to the average 43,500 miles for a 3 year old Camry SE would be $24,490!
just bought a 2024 and im extremely excited to have a stress free car experience after torturing myself with American vehicles for years
Do you put money aside for repairs and vehicle replacement when your car breaks or depreciates at a large rate?
I just pay what I’m charged at dealership. I do try to have some cash on the side to pay for hefty repairs if I have to
Just got a 2020 SE certified with only 13k Miles.. hope it makes it to 200k miles 🤞🏾
If you take care of your vehicle, it will take care of you 😉
Have you done the transmission oil change on it?
Transmission fluid yes, 3x already at the dealership
324,000 and going strong!
How many times have you changed brakes, transmission fluid' and radiator fluids?
Once
Ok the engine temperature stayed near C for about 5 minutes before it moved a little. That's some crazy engineering and efficiency.
