2016 Toyota Avalon Touring
 I've owned many cars of the years and this my 2nd Avalon.  It's not the worst car I've owned and certainly not the best.  Overall, the ride is smooth and the car has plenty of power and it accelerates on demand.  However, the steering it a bit to be desired.  It's not tight and kind of lags in turns at high speeds. Seating comfort, not too bad.  It took awhile for to find the sweet spot for the driver's seat position.  Very happy for the two setting memory.  I set one for when I feel like cruising and the other for when I feel the need for speed and drive a bit more aggressively.  Gas mileage is okay, I'm averaging about 24 mpg during my mixed 90 mile round trip commute between home and work.  The technology package it is not bad, but could use some tweaking.  Love the HVAC system and the heated seats are the best.  Now here's the BAD; the stereo really really SUCKS!!!  Although the vehicle has nine (9) speakers, it seems that all nine are up front between the dashboard and the windshield.  There is virtually no blended stereo sound between the speakers, all you hear are the speakers upfront.  There is no depth, no warmth, acoustic harmonization, no reverberation of tones.  The fade setting(s) between the front and rear speakers is useless.  You either hear all the front speakers or attenuated sound from the others.  The four (4) side speakers, two left, two right, needs to be amplified because you can't hear them, as they are over-powered by the fronts speakers.   As for the rear speakers, what rear speakers?  The bottom line, Toyota needs to fire its acoustic design and system engineers and team with Bose, Boston Acoustics, Polk Audio, etc.  My 1978 Dodge Diplomat had a stereo and acoustics.
