1998 Toyota Avalon Sedan XL 4dr Sedan
135,000 Miles and Won't Part With It!
 The best car I have ever owned. There 
is nothing on the market now that can 
replace it - especially in the area of 
looks (Toyota's new offerings - 
including the new "2006" Avalon - are 
SOOO ugly!). I have passed 135,000 
miles on this vehicle and am hoping for 
at least 200,000. Very little has gone 
wrong with this car outside of normal 
wear and tear and auxillary things like 
batteries and tires that Toyota has 
nothing to do with. Significant repairs 
lately were a new steering rack last 
month (leaking seals) and a complete 
brake job last year. Other than that, 
routine replacements. It will be a very 
hard and sad day when I trade this guy 
in!
