Re: Bye Bye Camry. bye bye! Bonvoyage

Hi Calvic, I very much agree. I can't afford car payments but I certainly cannot afford the repairs these things cost. I have spent well over $500 on this thing over the last month and then what do I have? Still an old car that I cannot work on and the fuel pump goes. Thats another $5 or so. Then the "ria-stat" goes LOL. Nothing but very costly repairs. Now the old truck I bought, fuel pump is $65 or so and 2 bolts to replace it. Do a tuneup cheap. What I am trying to say is that I will never own an EFI engine again. I need something I can afford and fix myself. As for mileage, the camry has 290,000 Km on the clock and one can expect to do repairs but its absolutely rediculous what you have to pay for any of these "newer" 87 and up vehicles for parts or the repairs.
