I Love this car! I've been extremely lax about maintaining it and have driven it from Chicago to San Francisco to Portland back to Chicago without a problem or an oil change. Trim is fine, no frills. It's not about to tow anything but it isn't weak, I've gotten it up above 100 many times. It'll outrun your slower enemies! Gas mileage is about 31 or 25 with a cargo topper -- this will get you anywhere.

My husband and I bought my current Toyota Corolla because we were going on a long trip from Wisconsin to Florida. I was needing a new vehicle and we knew from my two previously owned Toyota Corollas that they are very dependable. It did not fail me on that trip or any drives since then! It has a dark blue exterior, gray interior, and an automatic transmission. I like colors that don't really stand out too much and that don't show dirt so this suited me fine. The air conditioning works really good in the summer, cooling down the vehicle almost instantly. The heat kicks in just as good in winter. Everything is power automated/controlled and I like to be able to quickly adjust the side mirrors with just the barest touch of my left hand on the controls. The same with all four windows. I think Toyotas are really good quality cars, and for me they have just enough get up and go when I need to pass someone or pull out in front of others. My Corolla functions very well overall and I can't really think of a single thing I dislike about it.
