Toyota Avalon Usados en Venta

This was the first car that I owned. I like the spacious back. It is extra long. I like that the car itself looks expensive but we only bought it for 6,000. The seats are leather which I both liked, and disliked. They are great for easy clean-up, if there are any spills. However, they are terrible during hot weather. The seats get incredibly hot, and the steering wheel as well. I also disliked that the seats are very slippery. In the backseat, during turns, I felt like I would slip out of my seat belt. I like that the seats have automatic adjustments. I appreciate the bigger seats. I also like that there is extra room for leg space. I like the dashboard gadgets. Everything looks very modern and up to date, yet it maintains this vintage feel. When I drive in the car, I feel like I am in old Mafia movies. My vehicle is grey and has a brown interior. The carpets are also, very easy to clean if there are food crumbles or dirt. I take my dogs with me to a lot of places, and found that in this particular car, it was easy to remove all the dog fur.

The 97 Toyota Avalon is exactly what you'd expect in a late 90s four door sedan from Toyota. Nothing too flashy, nothing too special. But everything is highly efficient, highly functional, highly intuitive, well-designed, and built to last. It includes all the features you would expect in a mid-tier sedan, including power windows, power locks, power sunroof, working A/C, leather seats, power seats in passenger and driver seat. Trunk is spacious that's able, for me, to fit over 10 desktop computers in and several hundred pounds of scrap metal, which gives you an idea of the build quality and materials of this fine vehicle. The car has enough power for you to overtake people on the highway with ease, with it's DOHC V6 engine with 205 HP. However it still runs an efficient 25 mpg when cruising on the highway and a great 20 mpg when going for a drive around the city. I bought the car at 136,000 miles, and have driven it approximately 20,000 miles since then. It was performed admirably the entire time, and I believe the car will last me several more years if not longer before I finally have to part ways with it. But I could never see myself selling it because it no longer works, but only because I'd want to purchase something more modern. This is a 200,000-300,000 miles car for sure.

I don't think it is the car's fault but rather Toyota. I bought this car in 2010 and 3 months down the road, it was on recall. this made me uneasy. It made me feel unsafe. I like that this car heats up really fast so I am not freezing. It detects if tire are low in pressure. So there is many new icons on the car I never have seen. If my memory serves correctly there has been 2 other recalls since then. One of the recall was that the lights burned out too quickly- or the light was dimmed. Another recall was something about the air filter being ineffective. I am glad I was able to get those things cover. Even though the filter problem is claimed to be fixed, I still find that it gets dirty way too fast. Also the car tends to collect a lot of dust. I have seasonal allergies so this is a bummer. I only have 30,345 miles on this car. In the last 3 years I spent about 250 on maintenance, for me that is a little high. The $250 does not include any oil changes as I get them for free. The leather seats in this car are still high quality. However for a new car and so called new improvements, this car stalls a lot. I don't ever use the s-mode, just auto. The stalling problem happens more in year 3.
