Car Forum / Toyota / Camry / April 2008Which To Keep???
Utility aside, which one should I keep? Reliability etc ...... 94 - 4Runner (V6)(4x2) 130,000 99 - Camry LE (V4) 75,000 Point of Order The Camry is not a V4, it's an inline 4. I'd keep the Camry. The OBD II engine management system offers more information when it comes time to get the wrenches out. I have a neighbor with a similar vintage Camry, also with the 4-banger, and she has racked up 250k miles. > Utility aside, which one should I keep?

I would also pick the camry: reliable and cheap to use. I own 1995 LE model, 4-cyl and currently 238k miles. No major issues. I have been thinking maybe you should keep the camry and not 4 runner. I think it has air bags and the air bags may save your life if you get in a crash. Thanks Jamie Keep the Camry. It's not even broken in.

My son got my '98 LE and it now has over 180,000 miles. > Utility aside, which one should I keep?

Also the camry is considerably newer and as such will probably require less work. However I've seen a toyota truck with the same v6 engine as the 4runner that had 620 000km on it without a rebuild... which is rather impressive. | > > Utility aside, which one should I keep?

I read his post as BOTH vehicles are 2 wheel drive. Unless the OP meant to post (4x4) instead of (4x2) behind the 4Runner.

Reliability etc ...... > > 94 - 4Runner (V6)(4x2) 130,000 > 99 - Camry LE (V4) 75,000 I'll chime in with Camry - my 1999 V6 has 230,000+ miles on it. > Utility aside, which one should I keep? Reliability etc ...... > > 94 - 4Runner (V6)(4x2) 130,000 > 99 - Camry LE (V4) 75,000 If the 4 runner was a 4x4 I would keep it. I have a 94 with 215,000 miles and I wouldn't get rid of it but since its a 4x2 keep the Camry. I've owned an '86 and now an '04 and have no complaints. > I'll chime in with Camry - my 1999 V6 has 230,000+ miles on it. > >> Utility aside, which one should I keep?

Reliability etc ...... > >> > >> 94 - 4Runner (V6)(4x2) 130,000 > >> 99 - Camry LE (V4) 75,000 I have a similar dilemma deciding with Camry I should keep ! One is a 1995 Camry LE , the other is a 1998 Camry LE . However while the 1998 has all original parts except for brakes , the 1995 has had the struts and shocks , radiator , rack and pinion ,brake sensors and front axles replaced . The 95 has 138000 mile ,98 has 128000 miles . Which should I keep ? > 198.186.190.226...> >> Utility aside, which one should I keep?

Which should I keep ? the 95, eventually when you replace everything you have a new car! did that on a honda and got another 8 years out of it (it's an 85) On Apr 26, 9:35 am, "Paul P" <ppa...@optonline.net> wrote: > 198.186.190.226...> >> Utility aside, which one should I keep?

Which should I keep ? the 95, eventually when you replace everything you have a new car! did that on a honda and got another 8 years out of it (it's an 85) I'd keep the '98 because I like the OBD II diagnostics. > I have a similar dilemma deciding with Camry I should keep !

I just wonder what you are doing to the cars that you have to have the radiator, rack and pinion, and front axles replaced. Maybe a wreck ? >> I have a similar dilemma deciding with Camry I should keep ! One is a 1995 >> Camry LE , the other is a 1998 Camry LE .

Maybe a wreck ? Must have been. Those are not items that would require replacement so soon. |
