Toyota's Last Forever...I Hope By loveonce1 on - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I just bought my new car. I took time and test drove all of the vehicles from other companies that mare in the same class. I felt that I got the most out of my money from the toyota Corolla. I felt like the other vehicles were cheaply made, which I am sure mine is too, but it wasn't as noticeable. My least favorite in the compact cars was the Ford focus. I was a bit surprised that I would fall in love with a toyota because I have always drove Ford's. I am now hooked on the toyota's. I have always been told that they will last forever. Let's hope so. It has a 5 disc cd changer, cruise control, automatic locks and windows. The best part is my sunroof. I love it. I plan on tinting the windows a bit and that will make it perfect.

I worked at a Toyota dealership for a time. They really are great cars.

I have owned a toyota and a focus and you are right, the toyota wins hands down. You will love it again when you go to sell it or trade it in and see that's is actually still worth something. I sold my toyota after 5 years for 2,500 less than I paid for it new.

I've heard good things about Toyotas:0) As for FORD, lets just say they don't make them like they used to. In my opinion, Toyota wins again a Ford car any time, any place.

For some reason, Toyotas do have a "well made" feel to them when you drive one

Great information! By looking around for the best deal, it sounds like you got what you wanted.

I don't have a toyota right now but I think you made a great choice. My friend had a corolla that lasted to 300,000 + miles! Now that's a car.

What was it about the test drive that made you feel that the Corolla was so much better in quality than the competition? I am hearing that you love it but I am not sure why. If you have any specifics that stood out for you, I would love to hear them!

I loved that power lock & windows came standard. Also the sunroof. I had a friend that came with me to test drive it and she sat in the back so that I could get an idea of how roomy the back seat was. She said that she was very comfortable and had plenty of space. I also loved the console where the ac & radio are located. It 's very convenient and it cd player holds up to 6 discs. I loved that the rear seat fold down to accomodate for larger items in the trunk and the biggest point..... I get great gas milage!
