    Congrats Brian, where are you from?

    < Funny, that's the first time I've heard a Camry called a gas guzzler.>

    I'm from Vancouver, WA

    My old Camry was a 6 Cylinder and maybe got 20 MPG combined. I tried tune ups, new O2 Sensors, SEAFOAM additive, even went as far as adding acetone. Nothing worked. It was rated with another car as the worst MPG in 1992. It was fast but a $200+ gas bill a month was driving me mad. I consider it a gas guzzler but then I own a Prius now :)
