I'd love to sell the avalon, but people decided to wreck into it twice and I'm sure that isn't going to help the resale.

It's not the don't like the Avalon it's a decent Sedan it's just for me the car really didn't overall suit my need's and want's. Im not looking for a flashy car with bling bling but something to enjoy .I kept driving it and hating the interior layout's and a few things bothered me about the overall Quality it's just not something i would have expected in Toyota Flag ship sedan. Overall For a sedan to have a navigation server with a lame joy stick controller is indeed very bad for a huge company like Toyota much less not provide bluetooth on the 2007 and have that in a camry(wake up Toyota).
I hear you about Wreaks hell My 2000 Tundra didnt survive Georgia thus why im moving to Texas soon to escape this pit. Overall Ga growth is getting out of hand plus i like wide open space and Texas provides that ranch feel like California My former home state.
about Quality I tend to think Toyota was better on the older models avalons.the Tundra for 2007 Consumer reports had a huge bone to pick with Toyota why they didn't have them on the buyers guide and yet pasted Tundras were always on the list.I choose the Highlander on it's New body style because the Hybrid has been around a wile and Im somewhat intrested in the Technogoly there since My friends 2007 Camry Hybrid in your area is really an intresting Peice or work.Hybrids in general are becoming more popular gone are the day's on the boring looking first gen weird looking hybrid designs.
