Fuel Economy On A 2006 Toyota Camry (5th gen)
Here's a little fuel economy test on a 2006 (5th gen) Toyota Camry. This was a roundtrip of just under 500 miles. The trip was was not on level ground, plenty of elevation climbs. I used the AC a lot and cruising speed ranged from 55-80.
Overall, I'm really happy with the gas mileage on my 2006 Camry!

I think that the 2006 Toyota Camry is the best used car for $3000. It's reliable, cheap to maintain, has great fuel economy and just works.

Here is an Amazon Affiliate Link to the ones I purchased: amzn.to/3sBoGpM I put these Fahren Forscher 9006 LED Headlights in my 2006 Toyota Camry. The Camry has reflector housing. I did my best to aim the headlights to reduce glare and blinding other drivers. I know that they can be aimed better. By the time I posted this, I've already made more adjustments to them.
2006 Toyota Camry LE Initial Impressions
zhlédnutí 305Před 8 měsíci
Picked up this 2006 Toyota Camry LE, these are my initial impressions after 4 days. I had to sell my 2011 Toyota Avalon Limited. I was working on selling it anyway, and the head gasket blew and it made more financial sense to sell as is than to fix it. I needed a car, so ended up picking up this.
2011 Toyota Avalon (3rd gen) 200k Mile Long Term Review

Long term review of my 2011 Toyota Avalon. This is part of the 3rd generation. It has the 3.5L v6 and this body style was only for the 2011 and 2012 model years. In this video I talk about my ownership experience now that the car has around 200k miles. No, I haven’t owned it for the entire 200k. I picked it up around 160-165k miles.

The BEST CHEAP Universal Floor Mats | Motor Trend FlexTough Deep Dish Floor Mats

Car Mats - amzn.to/3weaTrc I picked up these Motor Trend FlexTough Deep Dish Floor Mats from Amazon. I was considering Weathertechs for my 2011 Toyota Avalon Limited, but didn't want to spend $180. These were $35 off Amazon, so for a $145 price difference, I feel they're probably the best universal all weather car floor mats you an get.

General G-MAX AS-05 | 2011 Toyota Avalon Limited
zhlédnutí 864Před rokem
Picked up some General G-Max AS-05 for my 2011 Toyota Avalon Limited. Needed some new tires with the winter coming up, and my Michelin Premier's were pretty worn down and ready to be replaced. Chose these because I needed a decent all season tire. We don't get a lot of snow, maybe a few days a year and it's not much at all. The reviews on Tire Rack seemed pretty good, so did the price, so we'll...

5 Things I LOVE About my Toyota 4Runner (4th Gen)
If I had to choose between the V6 or the four-cylinder Camry, I would choose the four-cylinder Camry you don’t wanna have to deal with spark plugs and ignition coils in the V6 engine, especially in the back.
Arent these suppose to have a rear wing on the trunk
I've seen some in the past, but mine never came with one.
We have a 2005 and the most mpg we’ve ever gotten is 28 mpg on a 275 mile round trip. 4 passengers and trunk packed full of luggage.
That's really not that bad for a loaded car! I had some equipment in it on this trip, and no passengers.
I had a 05 2AZ and id get around 40-45 MPG I would drive conservatively and my AC was only needed at 1/5 power because it was so cold!! I sold the 25’ years NEW in my city and the AC was colder in the 05’ !! HAHA.
I don't doubt that one bit! That's why I wasn't too mad about 33. I know that if I had less elevation change, drove a bit more conservative, I would have gotten way better. That's crazy that the AC was colder in the 05! They did really good with the 5th gens!
Is this camry a 4 cylinder or V6
This one is a 4 cylinder!
V6 is lower 20s
@@theaveragecar672 that’s the best Camry ever made drive it till the wheels fall off!
gonna need to replace that starter motor
👍
Thank you for that trick!!! I was fighting with these “snap” in washers!
the used camry's prices are so crazy nowadays.
They really are
Same money can get lexus same great drive teain but more luxury. Used camry.or lexus es avalon us in middle but gets lexus price camry almost as great but cheaper. Same cost get es lexus beyter ride more luxury and still toyota reliability. For price i go lexus, to save money go camry best bang for buck. Avalon muddle ground better tgan camry but more costly but can get equivalent es 300 350 better than avalon for sane cost. Jyst my 2 cents having owned all 3 in the 2002 to 2005 range on these 3. Have 03 camry v6 337k miles runs great but want another lexus for the creature comforts and.not much more for great used one. Been looking jyst waiting to find real clean.model that was maintained good.
Nice car, have 03 camry xle v6. One issue real long term test is much further away lol. My 21 yr old camry 337k miles, now that is long term test for toyotas 😅😅😅😅 sorry but for toyota anything under 250k miles is barely broken in😅. Saw video with late 90s camry with 600k plus miles, now that is REAL long term test for toyota. Unlike most cars toyotas last very long time. Long term test has different meani g when cars go 500k a lot. . Again love the avalin just messing with you. Look forward to update to video in 5 yrs as it will still be going most likely😊
Haha yeah absolutely. I only say long term because during my search, I loved hearing from people who have had the car for a while. Not just getting it for a day to shoot a video! They’ve definitely got tons of life left in them, and a year is a short time!
I have had a 1999 and a 2002 they where the same felt like it floated plenty of horse power
They're great cars!
You mean $1000
Nope, not where I live.
@theaveragecar672 I know, I incredibly lucky to find such a great car (2003 XLE) for that low, low price.
I just got the same car for 1,500
Nice find!
@@theaveragecar672 thanks
i like your tint. can you tell me what % it is on?
I had 15% all around
I just bought the 2012 limited with the V6. 2 weeks ago with 91k miles on it. This is my first Toyota (was a Ford lover). I bought as a second car due to my 2001 Expedition having 345k miles on the original large V8(yes I know they are not supposed to last that long, mine didn’t get the memo). As much as I loved my Ford. I want to drive my Avalon all the time. I don’t even want to be passenger princess anymore! She is a dream to drive and am completely happy with my purchase except for a 12 yr old its purchase price was a bit pricey around here and I got her for 14k out the door. 😊 which was a little below average on the price. As you can see with my Ford if you take care of the maintenance they can last. So I have a feeling that she will last too.
It is reported as an insurance claims.
Damn wheel is so sexy!
Would love a cabin video of highway driving
I have an 04 Lexus RX 330 made in Japan with 175K miles, I have replace a timing belt, water pump, camshaft bearings seals, new pulleys, thermostat, transmission flush, transmission filter, spark plugs. Maintenance is key to get 500,000 miles out of these cars. When changing the oil always, always use a Toyota oil filter. The only thing I don’t like about these 3.3 L is that they are “Interference Engine”, meaning if the timing belt breaks, you’re most likely going to have to replace the engine, unlike the 3.5 L that come with a timing chain. I know Lexus recommend changing the timing belt every 90,000 miles, I would recommend using OEM parts, you do not want to use cheap Chinese parts. I have read online some people driving 300K miles without changing the timing belt on these engines, but take that with a grain of salt. Maintenance is key.
Or you can long hold the lock button and any left slightly opened window will be rolled back up properly including the back window. Also if you press and long have the unlock button it will roll down all the windows.
4Runner.... one of the greatest vehicles ever made. Im looking for one at the moment 4x4 with the V8.
Use to have a 06 Toyota Camry LE had it for 10 years until my Older Son took it without telling me I was at work and crashed it going to Fullerton to meet his Cousin
Couldn’t even tell bro was revving at first
3000 more like 5 to 6 grand in South East unless trashed
I have two war mine tanks
That car is clean!
Going to save up for one these very reliable car
Absolutely, they're fantastic.
Great Vid! FYI: your two front seats fold down so you can lay in case you need to take a nap or camping overnight etc remove the headrest and flex your seat back Voila!
It’s not a 2.5, gross
I heard this camry break fails when on highway speed. How true can this be please?
I’m not sure who said it, but that’s not true for me. And I’m sure a lot of others as well. These are super reliable cars! If you’re looking to buy one, I’d recommend getting a trusted mechanic to look at it before you buy.
I got a 2004 for my daughter several years ago. It now has 265K and is still going strong. I have read that the 2.4 engine has a blown head gasket/stripped head bolt problem that is pretty common, but so far it hasn't shown up on her car.
Just bought a 2002 camry XLE V6 with 206k miles for 4k. Not a dent on it no leaks, everything works. and it runs and drives like new. Im leaving on a 2400 mile trip in a couple of weeks with it. Iv never owned a better running vehicle.
Got yourself a solid rig right there that should like a long time!
Got my 03 with 250k has 336k now still runs great
Can’t decide between this or an es350
Tough decision for sure. I love Lexus and would love to drive an es350.
dude those wheels, really look fantastic on that Camry. I would love to find a set like those. they don't seem original.
They really do! They’re not original. These came off a 2012-2014 Camry SE!
Do you have the manual still? I need wheel replacements
You made a good decision on the last year of the fifth generation Toyota Camry. I have one just like yours same color but I have two extras. I have leather interior and I have a six cylinder rims are almost purchased mine from discount tire but you made a good decision, these cars were start up and 30 below 00 by the way I live in Chicago just take care of it. Make sure your fluids good your radiator is good. Your sensors are good for your cooling. If you have air conditioning in it make sure that stays straight too.
Just bought a 2004 Camry LE with the V6 for $3500 at a local Toyota dealership. It has 163K miles. Well maintained and service history. Very good to excellent condition. Zero rust. Had to replace the struts, front brakes, and O2 sensor. Car drives like brand new.
With those miles you should not have to replace anything else for 50k
Tire size?
The V6 may be smoother but it uses a timing belt not a chain like in the 4 cylinder models. Chains last considerably longer.
But the belts are easy to change on the 3.0. and last 100k
I can totally agree. I still drive my 2005 Camry with over 350,000 kms. Almost 20 years old and runs smooth. Solid car. Toronto Canada
2nd gen floats I have a 2004 Avalon
Those lights on the outside mirrors are called puddle lights I have them on my 09 limited they are cool
I've got a 2004 Camry, bought new, that has 73k on it! It's 2 years older than this one & I wouldn't sell it for $3,000.!
I use one myself, bought one from amazon, yes it has some issues. But i think the issues come from the stations, not the product itself. Its not about how good the product is, its about how much the station is unpopular. Like i said, i bought one from amazon for real cheap, and i am using one on my 2008 suzuki sx4 sedan model. It has normal radio just like yours and with some experiments that i did i figured out its about the station (at least in turkey) and not the model.
I love this gen Camry and I know way too much about this gen as far as options, colors, models, etc. These cars are super reliable if you keep up with service. That engine is the 2AZ and it's very reliable and great on gas. I had a 2004 Camry a few years ago with the 2AZ and I took a 600 mile trip in it and it was easily getting close to 32 MPG on the highway. I now have a 2005 Camry LE V6 and I get about 28MPG on the highway. The number one thing to watch for on this gen Camry is the steering racks start leaking around the boots and the rack would need replacing, if it still is original. Your car looks like a Lunar Mist Metallic silver with Stone fabric. Yours looks like a very low optioned LE probably the only option would have been floor mats, a trunk mat, and it would have originally had wheel covers. The wheels on your Camry are from a 2012-2014 Camry SE and I think they look good on this gen Camry.
Appreciate the info! Yeah it's pretty bare bones, and I did put the rims on after I got it. It just had some steelies on it. It's treating me well so far, and I've had it for going on 6 months now!
Toyota Camry 2009! No car payment for 6 years now I have 220k miles still goin
2004 Chevy Tahoe Z71. Purchased in 2010, with 156,000 miles on it, for $13,000. Still driving it with 266,000 miles on it. •Fuel Pump Replaced •Water Pump Replaced After that, just routine maintenance. Original engine, original transmission. Still running strong!
Love those Tahoe’s! It should last for you for a while longer!
I see these everywhere and by the TONS!
Yup! They’re great cars
Got a new used 09 corolla. Love it!
That thing will last forever!
