I remember when this specific Toyota Avalon model came out it was luxurious beyond belief and the styling was so good at the time. I remember seeing it parked on the street and I stopped to take a picture of it. To me this was the best large non luxury sedan on the market at that time. I LOVED double LED headlights and wheel design.

[@chriscornelius2518]

[@anonymike8280]

I compare the Avalon to a loaded Mercury, Oldsmobile or Chrysler Newport in the old days. I don't call them "good", good or bad, they're just the old days. I would like one but I don't want a V-6 right now. I have a 4cyl Camry, and I'm good with that at the moment.

[@daviddill5227]

I had a 2007 Chevy Impala 3.9 liter V6 with cyclinder deactivation. I put 170,000 miles on it by the time I got rid of it. It worked beautifully the entire time I owned it. I drove one time from CT to Florida and back. I averaged 36 MPG. This was extremely impressive because it was a full sized sedan. It had 233hp and 240ft lbs of torque. Only repair I ever needed on it was a new alternator. At 150,000 miles. It was a very good car.

[@Intrepid175a]

A friend of mine's mother had been driving a Camry for around 10 years. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the car but she was just ready for a new car. She had her heart set on a Lexus 350 but her son tried to point her toward an Avalon, pointing out that it was very much the same car for a noticeably less money. So he finally got her to the Houston Auto Show. We spent about 2 hours there and all she did was walk back and forth between the Toyota display and the Lexus display. They each had an Avalon and a 350 on the floor and as luck would have it, both were similarly optioned out. She really had her heart set on that Lexus but she's also a financially savvy person for the most part and she ultimately bought the Avalon. She forfeited a couple of options that the Lexus had but those wound up being a total non issue.

[@skunkbucket9408]

I love my '13 Avalon Hybrid Limited. The only complaints I have are the ones they warned about in the reviews at the time. The ride is too stiff for an Avalon since Toyota was trying to market the car to a younger demographic with this redesign. They've softened the suspension back up again, starting with the '16 model. Also, the seats really aren't very comfortable considering what this car's mission is. It's otherwise a supremely competent highway vehicle (the EPA says it will go like 670 miles on a tank), but the seats are underpadded. Otherwise, it's by far the best car I've ever owned.

Scotty. I've been watching you for a long time and finally got to use some of the knowledge I've gotten from you. My wife was finally ready to get rid of her 2012 Kia Sorento. I showed her the Avalon on KZbin, so she wanted to see one in person. I'm not kidding, the first one she looked at, she fell in love with. She had no idea of the age. It is a 2013 Avalon Limited. This is a beautiful car. It only has an actual 87,050 miles on it. So far, the only thing I've had to do to it was replace the side view mirror turn signal. Thanks for educating us on what to look for and what to look at to make sure we are getting what we see. No lipstick on this old girl. Just an honest, well maintained Toyota. The first Toyota I've ever had. So far, so good!

@@chevinbarghest8453 Jesus really got after the hypocrites. He knew how much it hurt His cause. That's too bad to hear about their bad behavior. I'm from Utah and have never spent anytime in the bible belt. There are plenty of Utah stories too.

I bought a 2014 Avalon Hybrid XLE Touring with 100k for 12k! This is an excellent vehicle! I have put another 40k with no issues!

[@batman_ara]

Hi Scotty! I'm in college and have a 98 camry made in japan with 86,000 miles on it. It was leaking oil but i replaced the valve cover gasket and the front links. Labor in NY is crazy expensive so i was wondering if you'd advice to keep it or sell it given it may keep leaking oil.

[@kxc0005]

Bought a 2014 Limited Avalon in 2020 with 86k and absolutely love it. The car is quiet, fast, and almost furious. Between Eco, and Normal, the Sport Mode does make a difference. One of the cool features besides the lumbar is the thigh support on that trim. The only thing I wish was increased was the fuel tank capacity which gives your ~280 miles per trip. Since this Toyota model is being discontinued and if you like it, I suggest going with the Lexus ES 350 (my neighbor’s choice with an additional $5k on top of it).

[@Modeltrainscarsstereos614]

Yep an Avalon is pretty much a luxurious Camry Thays quieter and finished better on inside. Right next door to an ES. However 2013-15 rode very poorly. So get a 2016 so you get the smooth ride. Avoid the 4 cylinder AWD strained noisy and not refined get the V6 or the hybrid.

[@Brocklanders80085]

Scotty. What do you think of the 2020 Honda Pilot. I love it. It's my wife's car. Mine is a 2001 Dodge 1500 that I just sold (it had a lot of problems). Which used truck should I buy? I need something to haul lumber for my projects and something that has reliable parts and an AC that won't quit. Thanks for the advice in advance

[@805NAVE]

I love the Avalon. I have 4 Lexus in my family tho. We have both of mine, 02 GS430 and 06 ES330 (similar to scottys wife’s), my mom has an 08 LS460, my grandma has a 07 ES350, my dad has a 2005 land cruiser (w 290,000 miles owned since new), and my brother has an 04 Solara SLE V6. Now all we need is an avalon to complete the lineup lol 😝

[@seeum2098]

Yess siir!! get one asap :D

[@vce.john1734]

That just like my family my dad has 2016 odyssey bought new since 5 years now my sister got a 2021 crv new I might get a 2020 accord either 2.0 sport or hybrid but I might get a 2020 Avalon xse hybrid

[@user-jq5jx8nn5h]

Love to see a super high milage comparison between Honda and Toyota, I personally drive a 00 accord with the 3.0L v6 with 186k on the dash and running way too good for its age and my friend has a 06 with over 430k on the dash now and running fine.( even tho it now sits as the spare car and he got a 2016 accord sport). Personally I've seem hondas go, but would love too see the break down and comparison to Toyota.

[@spenserhorton8890]

I have an 05 accord and had an 04 avalon and the avalon was just way better made. Better ride. Better leather. Paint holds up better. Imo toyota wins all day I now have a 18 avalon and it's very nice

[@lamontjackson6922]

You are the man Scotty. I have the same Toyota Avalon. Second owner 2013 only 17,000 miles. Only problem that I have is the noise your video mention. I will deal with it down alone what do you think your best course of action is

I bought a used Camry but it’s only 2 years old so it’s still new-ish but I’ll easily be able to keep driving it around for the next 20 years

[@davidfig6357]

In 2014 I purchased a Avalon Hybrid for 32K, it has been the best car I have ever owned. Love the fact that I get 40mpg since I live in California. I enjoy the ride, and do not have stress in traffic as the engine goes off and on long road trips I have almost no fatigue.
