Actually more grandparents are driving Camry models. I see the shift over time to minivans and now crossovers. Active families need space. Maybe when we retire, we can buy fine wines.

I just took my family to Disney World in a crossover for a vacation. With luggage for 2 adults and 2 children, it was perfect. The small import trunk is not ideal. If we flew for 4, it would much higher. I also see 40 year old wanting some style as well as room. If you are a commuter, maybe the Camry works. But with 3 or 4 people on a trip, it doesn't.

Yet another way to put it is a small bottle of very cheap perfume is not as good as a larger, premium upscale bottle.

No, Toyota medium size sedans interior specs are about the same as a Malibu or Fusion.

I recently went on a road trip where a late model Camry was rented. I drove the car and sat in the back seat. The interior space was not even close to a Town Car, which I own, or even a Park Avenue, which my father owns.

**********

If you go back and read my original review, you will see that my previous car was a Grand Marquis.

I will speak from experience, and tell you that the Grand Marquis had a lot more interior space than the Camry that this review is based on. A Camry also does not seat six.

Also an update:

I don't own this car any more. Traded it for a 2012 Altima. Now only time will tell if I decide to purchase another Japanese car.
