In this video I will share my professional opinion on the best Toyota models to buy and the Worst Toyota models to buy and some car buying advice as well.
People ask me all the time what's the best Used Toyota to buy and I often see people recommend cars which are actually not good buys just because they had a good one. I work on Toyota models exclusively and I have seen each models rise and fall.
When we eventually get to the worst Toyota models some viewers will feel offended as their car might be mentioned. If you have one of the cars that I listed as the worst and it's been good, I am very happy. However know that the information in this video doesn't come from "consumer reports" It comes from over 10 years of actual real world experience fixing Toyotas every day.
Towards the end of the video I will share some general Toyota buying advice. Avoid at all costs buying severely rusted Toyotas and relevant to the current times we live in, NEVER over pay for a Toyota no matter what!

This guy works for a Toyota Dealership. Yet, he is HONEST enough to be BLUNT and state not to let the dealership rip you the hell off.. He deserves to be VP of Operations for Toyota Corporate

Scotty will be upset - you didn't mention the 1994 Celica 😂
-
301,000 mile 2011 Sienna here. Take it for service on EVERY recommendation. STILL drives like new!
-
I own a 2012 Toyota Camry Hybrid, purchased new. Last year, it failed to start. The problem turned out to be the 10-year-old OEM 12-volt battery. With over 10 years and 100k miles, we have replaced the 12-volt battery, the brake pads once, and a rear-wheel speed sensor once, and I'm on my third set of tires. That's all!

I freaking LOVE my 4Runner. Thing just works and refuses to die. 437,000 miles and still going strong 👌🏼
-
I started working on Toyotas in 1976 and worked on them until 2007. I am now retired and I have to say I enjoy watching your video's. Keep up the good work.

I have a 2007 Toyota Corolla and she’s still kicking at 191,000 miles and really haven’t had any issues just standard maintenance costs like new break pads. Not leaking any oil, gets about 30 mpg. Definitely agree that’s a good oldie to have 😊
-
I have rewatched this video like ten times. It has really helped me shop for used toyotas!

Man… our 1998 Corolla was the first reliable car we have ever owned. It’s still running today AC still blowing ice cold/ original power train. Almost 400k miles. But we did notice rust near the gas tank. The door handles break every other year lol but thankfully they are 6$ each. Besides that… It has been very bullet proof, it never shut off on us or left us stranded for 23 years. We do 85-88 Mph on the highway and it doesn’t struggle.

I have a coworker with a 2005 corolla. He has over 400k miles and still runs like a dream and he still uses original weight oil. Amazing.
-
6-7 years ago I purchased an used 2007 Camry Hybrid that had the oil burning problem. Luckily, I found out that I could take it to Toyota for this issue to be fixed. Today, the car is nearing the 300,000 miles mark and still going strong.

I'm approaching 400,000 miles on my 1999 4 cylinder Camry. I will need to replace it before long and was wondering what years to avoid in buying used. THANKS---You deserve 3 THUMBS UP.
-
I'm SO happy that I found your channel. It's people like you who educate and tell ordinary consumers truths that actually help make the world a better place
-
I’m a car guy. And Sir, you are undoubtedly the best car advisor I’ve seen on you tube. Dead on clear and everything you say,I understand and concur 100%. Facts, not B.S. thank you. Refreshing to see.
-
I bought a used Scion, it was 5 years old ,it lasted me another 15 years the best little car I ever had
-
I get so much information from him, and I can't say thank you enough! We are starting our search for a used Corolla for our youngest daughter and man did this help us out! Thank you!!!!!
-
This man has had to take millions of notes throughout the years to help keep all this info in his head, remarkable, well put together videos, accurate information and a master mechanic. I would have to say this is the absolute best channel for Toyota's in you tube.
-
You're absolutely right about the 2000/2001 Camrys. I bought my 2001 XLE V6 for dirt cheap over 7 years ago with over 150k already on it and I've still never had a major problem with it. Even now at about 250k it still drives just as well as it did the day I bought it. I'm convinced this car will outlive me lol.
-
Loved your video.. I have a 2006 Camry with 407,000 miles. I maintain. Runs like a charm until yesterday when I was involved in a car crash and it was totaled. I was aiming for the million mile club. Best car I ever owned. My family all drives Toyotas.
-
I have a 2011 Camry V6, hands down the best vehicle I have ever owned. Over 180k miles and no issues! Excellent car!
