I just wanted to and the V6 was just a want,not a need. Just

Speaking of towing a trailer, Toyota does not recommend using
the Camry to tow a trailer of any size.

I did a quick look at the Hondas, and the small and mid size
cars did not seem to even offer a v6. Just a 4 and a turbo 4.
I don't care for the turbos on a street car.


Why?
My last car was a 2.0 turbo. I was quite happy with the
performance.

Today's turbos are a far cry from the Corvair or Jetfire of the
sixties, or the old SVO Mustang!!! Rven the Saab turbos of rhe
seventies and eighties were very crude by today's standards and
were considered consumeables. Today's turbos should last the life
of the car

+1 Seems like most manufacturers offer turbos. Nothing beats the
boot in the butt when merging...


The car we ordered is a 2.4L turbo DOHC. It will have enough kick
for us.
It will have roghly the same "kick" as a 4.6 liter V8
