Replying to: wvgasguy (Jan 18, 2008 4:23 am) The TCH is primarily my wife's car, but I've driven it quite a bit. As for the heated seats, I thought they were pretty hot, and got that way quickly. My wife has mentioned that it feels like there is a thermostat ... that shuts on and off. Personally ... I've shut the heater off within minutes because it's too hot for me. I've had plenty of vehicles with heated heats, and still have a CTS & Infiniti QX56. IMO ... the Camry seats get hotter, faster, than in my QX. I can't complain either, since the Camry was half the price. We both LOVE the car ... just wish we had bought one sooner.

| Took delivery of my TCH on Dec. 28, 2007. Loaded with Navigation. Love the car. Getting between 34 and 39 mpg (manual check). Still learning how to drive in order to max out mileage. I think the technology is really cool. With improvements in technology it will be interesting to see how high the mileage can go in the future. | |
| I bought mine on Ebay, used from a private deal in Utah. Fantastic price for red, 19k mile hybrid with most options, (nav, leather, premium sound, sunroof), except ground effects and dual exhaust? so what. We love this car. I get a steady 32+ mpg and I don't drive easy. I also found a class 1 trailer hitch for a removable bike rack, also on ebay. It is plenty fast enough, and smooth. Nicest car I'll ever own. | |
I wanted to ask if anyone has had any problems with there hybrid catching on fire. My car caught on fire 7 months ago and I think is was caused by the batteries in the trunk that’s where the fire started please let me know this was a 2007 camry hybrid

I just got my TCH yesterday. So far it is averaging just over 36mpg. Am going to take it on a road trip this weekend. I will report back after that. So far I am very pleased with how it drives and rides.

Well,I got myself a TCH. Here's my mini-report: Overall, nice car. Still on first tank; getting 33 mpg. (about 12 mpg than I was getting). I did a fair amount of research, so I knew what I was getting into. I am coming from another great car, an Accord (2003-2007 version). Pluses (compared to my Accord, which is a high bar in the first place): - MPG, MPG, MPG - Quieter, smoother ride, less vibration, and power is decent (coming from a V6 I was concerned, but it's all good) - Stereo is very good - Looks like a Lexus, but costs a lot less  - Roomy drivers' area, even for tall people) - DC adapter layout is good; AUX input and pass-through hole are nice - Climate control very good - DRL (Daylight running lights; can be turned on or off, which is nice) - Navigiation/computer has lots and lot options. - Adjustable lumbar support (an air bladder, not a bar) - Bluetooth integration - Satellite radio integration Negs. (These are very minor nits by me; compared to the things I liked in the Accord, which set the bar high): - Plastic dash/trim seems slightly lower quality than Honda - Leather seems slightly lower qualitythan Honda (seat is not as "snug", so that may play into it. - Door ergonomics could be improved (arm rest is to small/short) - Mirror adjustment switch position could be improved - No auto up on driver window (but has auto down). - Navigation has lots and lots of options (learing curve) Overall, I am very pleased. This is a lot of car for the money. Being able to drive a full size sedan (my mobile "leather sofa") and get such good gas mileage is awesome. Sure, people say you can do it with the regular 4 cylinder, but in my experience, it is noiser, and there is more variation in the mileage. Another big thumbs up. |
