    Exactly 2 weeks ago today, I was cruising at 74 mph when a wheel came off horse trailer (caught on highway cam), rolled across a grassy median and totaled my 2018. Luckily it didn't come through the windshield, and the truck didn't roll (state Trooper was amazed, so was insurance property damage adjuster). Just picked up my replacement - hard to find, they're sold before hitting the lot! Had to drive 5 hrs round trip, which I wasn't happy with, still a little paranoid.... I decided to go for a slight change in color 20210508_100655.jpg 20210522_100110-01.jpg

    Surprised you didn't steal the opportunity to take a little upgrade in the model, either way, glad you are okay.

    I actually went to the local dealer ready to buy the most expensive one on the website. Already sold. The dealer we went to had 37 Camrys when my husband bought one 2 years ago. Yesterday they had less than 30 new vehicles total. I wanted a change from MGM and don't want silver, else I probably would have. Other than not being particularily excited about the SR wheels, it had everything I need.
