Back in 1995 I bought a 1989 Camry V6 LE. It was the sweetest car, unbelievable power for a sedan. I vividly remember driving home one day in the middle of a snowstorm. I had to drive up a very steep, looooong hill. There was at least 8 inches of snow on the road, and only one other set of tracks. Halfway up, I turned a bend and saw a half-ton truck skewed across, and almost blocking the road. It had lost its traction and was trying to get turned around to go back down. I had to slow down (I was worried I was going to lose my traction too!) and drive onto the shoulder to get around the truck. The Camry spun a bit but kept going. I finished driving up the hill, spinning occasionally but going strong, making the only set of tracks in the deep snow. I loved that damned car. Now with all the kids I have to drive a minivan. But if the Camry is still half the car it was in '89, I know what I'll be driving when the kids are grown
