Bye bye Titan.... hello gas mileage

Post by LowNSlow » Tue Dec 28, 2010 1:35 pm

Finally got rid of the gas guzzling truck... and got the wife into a 2010 Corolla S.

It's pretty fancy smancy for a $16,000 car.


Got 0% interest, 2 years free oil changes and unlimited miles/months powertrain warranty.


Oh and it's SRT-4 blue.... :laughing3: Has black housing headlights from the factory.

:thumbup:


Only picture I have right now is with my poor srt who has rusted rear rotors =(


Went from 15mpg in the truck to mid 30s in the corolla!

I love it so far....

Good choice over the Titan man. I know how you feel, I did the same with my Jeep and my new '05.

I like only putting in $40 to fill it as opposed to $90!

well at least you got some $$ from your titan for the car right?
my sister's ex hubby let my cousin borrow his titan, and the kid rolled it
into a bus stop and they ended up paying more than the truck was worth
for the property damage, and now he drives a bmw... :banghead:

You should look up the resale of Titans.... its insanely low... so no, I rolled a LITTLE bit over... but @ 0% interest... I'm not too worried bout the tiny bit I rolled over.

lifetime powertrain, yes. chrysler did this for a while. it's necessary on a toyota though because you never know when your gas pedal is going to stick.
