    My 2017 Tacoma got recalled when I took it in for a free oil change. Techs said the diff was seeping fluid and they couldnt let me drive it home due to it being a safetly hazard. Everyone at Toyota was real cool, just kinda sucks its gonna sit at the dealer for who knows how long while im making payments. Bright side though is that they gave me a free loaner camry for as long as i need. Hopefully i get my truck back soon.

    Does the Camry have a tow hitch? It's a loaner so no need to worry about long term frame damage from using it..

    Just go back in a few days and tell them you need a truck, or see how the quad fits in the trunk of the Camry.

    Maybe you should've opted for the Sienna instead of the Camry...
