I've heard I4 motors before.

They sounded different.

Maybe that sound is the new Camry powering past.

Yeah, television production always does that.  Except in the show House, apparently.

Nothing quite like adding a little air superiority to the family sedan.

Ye gods do I ever hate marketing companies.
0-60 in 7.6 or 6ish for the gas V6.. 156hp.. and 3500+ lbs... nope.. nope.
But I'm sure there are people that believe what they see in commercials.

The Camry is for people who hate driving.  It's 100% utility - 0% fun, or soul, or interesting, or sexy.

To turn this thread into a 5-pager... what is the Camry of motorcycles?

I've yet to see a movie/TV show/commercial that doesn't alter the sounds of bike in to something that is completely wrong.

Of course, every non-rider things ever motorcycle is a Harley anyway.  Shrug

Then it's perfect for what I want in a cage, if I wanted a cage. Right now I've got a 2007 Buick LaCrosse that gets me down the interstate. It's comfortable, holds a lot of crap in the trunk and gets decent mileage. The daughter will get it as a hand-me-down and I'll find something useful, like a box van or summat like that.

The Camry of the MC world? I dunno, but I'm sure Honda makes it.
