I think I remember this happening to someone else but I can't find the post. I was at the top of a pretty steep hill, while waiting for cars to pass the ICE shuts down. Hit the gas pedal and nothing happens. Car doesn't move, ICE doesn't kick in. Hit the brake, then hit the gas, ICE starts up and car goes. Strange. Anyway, just wondering if anyone else has noticed this- I'll have it checked out next time I change my oil. tom |

What a great car. I am delighted to be driving a 5-star sedan that's comfortable, powerful, and loaded (even though I got the base version w/o JBL,Nav,Bluetooth,compass,leather - it's so well equipped I don't miss the rest). Still on the first tank of gas. 226 miles, 35.6 MPG - wow! I am stunned. That includes some big hills (over the pass between S.B and Buellton), and because of the rain I had the lights, heater, fan, defroster and windshield wipers going most of the time. Still, I didn't do anything special; just set the cruise control to the speed limit and smile. The Camry Hybrid is all you have said - a great car. As for the funny noises, well, I am an engineer, so I marvel at all the great engineering that found its way into this car. This car is the sweet spot. Great 8-way power seat, lots of hip, leg and headroom. So many great little features. The best part for me personally is I have always driven too fast and always knew I should have greater self control. Well, this car now gives me the motivation to kick back and use a ton less gasolene...thanks to you all for sharing how cool this car is. I almost bought a couple of other cars, went back and forth. Finally I was sure the Camry was the one. No regrets! |

| I'm purchasing a Camry Hybrid w/in the next couple of weeks, but I haven't yet decided if I should purchase a 2007 or a 2008. Any opinions on which is the better model? I do want the leather interior and the NAV. | |

Replying to: susanleigh1 (Jan 21, 2008 7:05 am) I don't know so much about the 2008 but I am very happy with my 07. It has everything I could want in a car for the price and the gas mileage is great (usually about 36 to 38 mpg). I would recommend it to any of my friends. Not just because it is a comfortable car but because it goes a fair was toward getting off our oil fix. In any case good luck. |

Replying to: susanleigh1 (Jan 21, 2008 7:05 am) The 2009s will be out in a couple of weeks. Probably no rebates or incentives on these.

Replying to: kdhspyder (Jan 21, 2008 7:43 pm) Any idea what the pricing will be on the 2009s? I suppose once they're out they'll have more incentives for buying the 2008s... |

Replying to: kdhspyder (Jan 21, 2008 7:43 pm) I figured they were just telling me what suited them (me buying the 2008 now). We wound up going with the 2008 ... because we didn't want to wait any more. As long as the 2009's aren't much different ... I won't be too mad I guess.
