Default Wives and cars

"About six months ago, we got my wife a new car, maybe one step up from
your basic compact. We shopped five or six dealers, looking at several
brands of four door sedans, including two "fancy lines." She ending up
liking the Toyota Camry best because "it's a simple car, well-made, nice
ride, and peppy." I was pretty surprised at how well it performs, since
she opted for the naturally aspirated four cylinder engine."

Too bad Toyota discontinued the V6 when they redesigned the Camry four or five years ago. It's a nice engine...plenty for my Highlander, the way I drive. Not sure if Camry has gone to the CVT type transmission yet. That seems to be the future but I'm not convinced the slightly better gas mileage is worth any negative traits...such as when towing etc.
