    We have a Sienna and so far, knock wood, the few things we've had trouble with have been covered under warranty and fixed same day.

    Well I passed on the ford. The guy selling it is a good friend of mine and was willing to part from it for 1800. He needs the money. The motor runs sound just a few external parts needed looked at. Interior was run down as it was his hunting truck and there were plenty of dings in the body. Perfect for what I wanted. But he got an offer for 4,000 and I told him to take it. He'll make more money and I know he needs it.

    Good move Josh. It is great to get a deal, but not at the expense of a good and true friend. Most friendships outlast any car/truck will.

    That's what I figured. He seemed to feel bad about it but I'm perfectly fine with it. He got laid off the oil fields and I know he needs some extra cash. I told him deals will come and go but chances to make money now days are more rare than not.

    Nothing at all wrong with a Toyota.

    I've been driving a Toyota for several years now and have over 300k on it. Drove it some places I probably shouldn't have but it didn't let me down. The parts haven't been as difficult to find, less expensive than most others, and a lot easier to work on than a lot others.

    Yeah, its a 96 camry.
