Top 5 Reasons for buying a Toyota Camry and getting rid of the Mercedes SLK320

1.) A 2-seater convertible that retails over 6 digits is not financially or physically responsible for a family with a new baby on the way. (Don’t get me wrong, I still cried.)

2.) 0% APR for 6 years – 2 vehicles

3.) 2 years free maintenance on 2 vehicles.

4.) The payment on 2 brand new Toyotas for less than the price of one of our existing vehicles is a successful investment.

5.) I personally believe the recent recall on my new vehicle was important, has been rectified and currently political. Any vehicle recall must be tested and passed before sold to a consumer.

(Any vehicle is able to have a recall. People/machines are not perfect.
i.e.
BMW: Summary: ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, THE LOWER RUBBER MOUNT OF THE REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED TO SPECIFICATIONS AND MAY NOT ADHERE CORRECTLY TO ITS HOUSING WITHIN THE SHOCK ABSORBER.

THIS DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 102, "TRANSMISSION SHIFT LEVER SEQUENCE, STARTER INTERLOCK, AND TRANSMISSION BRAKING EFFECT."
Consequence:THE DRIVER MAY NOT BE AWARE OF THE TRANSMISSION POSITION OF THE VEHICLE.)

I guess this would make 6 resons but it's a Japanese car made in Texas. That closed the deal on my debit on American (You know, buy American, support America. Problem is, American Brands outsource out of America. My car was built in San Anotonio. I love the sticker that says: Built for Texas, Built by Texans. No Really, I LOVE THAT.)
