EARTHY CAR OF THE WEEK: 2003 Grey Toyota Corolla CE
This 2003 Toyota Corolla is one of three Toyota Corollas on our lot. The others are a 2007 (like the ‘03, part of the ninth generation) and a 2010 (part of the tenth generation).
The Toyota Corolla is the biggest selling car in the world. It is one of the most practical cars on the market. It is one of the most fuel efficient cars – it can get up to more than 30 miles per gallon.
A Corolla is ideal if you just need a reliable vehicle just to get around (from work, school).
This Corolla is priced at just $7,500. And, it is on sale – it was originally priced at $7,900.

“CE comes standard with air conditioning (with an air filter), AM/FM/CD stereo system, power steering, power mirrors, tilt steering column, tachometer, intermittent wipers, digital clock, outside temperature gauge, trunk lamp, and a dome light with delay.”Consumer Guide: http://www.vehix.com/car-reviews/2003/toyota/corolla/expert-reviews/consumer-guide
“At first sight the new Corolla actually looks smaller than the one it replaces. This is a false impression as it is four inches longer with a wheelbase that is over five inches longer. However, it is over three inches taller while having the same width as the old model, hence the impression of being smaller.”
“The interior is where the Corolla really shines. Inside, it doesn't feel like a small car, and it doesn't feel cheap…The ergonomics of the dashboard layout are exemplary. It is nicely laid out and its finish is as good as that in all but the most expensive luxury cars. Coupled with the nice finish, it makes the Corolla feel more like a small Lexus, especially if one opts for the leather seats. The dashboard layout is the same on all models. It has a top surface that sweeps across the width of the car in a slight S-curve and wraps into the door trim. Each side of the center console seamlessly blends up to the lower portion of the dash, which includes a large glove box on the passenger side. Four small vents are nicely inlaid into the upper part of the dash.”
“One word sums up the driving experience in the new Corolla: transparent. That's a benefit to those who don't particularly enjoy driving. The Corolla gets the job done so nicely that it's difficult to fault…The power steering is just right, providing a nice feel without being too stiff or sloppy. The suspension has been tuned to give a smooth ride, which is helped by the longer wheelbase compared to the previous generation. Body roll has been minimized and the car feels secure at all speeds.”
“The Corolla is the car to consider if you're looking for a sophisticated and utterly reliable sub-compact sedan that blends in so well it's almost non-existent. It's not too much of a stretch to say the Corolla is a baby Lexus, it certainly has the same DNA.”

EARTHY CAR OF THE WEEK: 2008 Toyota Sienna
2008 Toyota Sienna LE, Minivan, Grey, 53802 mi, $18,900 $17,900 http://bit.ly/ij5uGF 5-spd automatic, MPG = 17/23
The Toyota Sienna is one of the ideal vehicles for families with multiple children. It can seat 7-8 passengers and has lots of cargo space. It has the ability to transport several kids, to school, sports games, or Boy/Girl Scouts meetings.
This Sienna is not that old (2008). It has only 53,000+ miles put on it. It is part of our huge sale – it is now priced $1000 less.
This Sienna is part of the LE trim. LE has all the features of the most basic trim, but more. However, it is not one of the luxury trims. This is the most popular trim.
If you are “soccer mom” (or soccer dad), and you are currently driving a smaller car, consider this vehicle.

EXPERT REVIEWS:
NewCarTestDrive via AOL Autos: http://autos.aol.com/cars-Toyota-Sienna-2008-LE__4dr_Front_wheel_Drive_Passenger_Van/expert-review/
“The Toyota Sienna remains one of the smartest transportation choices an active family can make. Minivans offer more interior room relative to exterior length than any other type of vehicle, and the Sienna is arguably the best of the breed.”
“Inside, the Sienna is big and roomy, but it doesn't drive bulky, and it's not hard to park. It's smooth, responsive and quiet, and it's more fuel-efficient than an SUV with comparable space for people and things. In just minutes, the Sienna switches from eight-passenger bus to cavernous cargo hauler, with room for full sheets of plywood, 10-foot ladders, or significantly more of anything else than you can put in most full-size sport utilities. With a standard 3500-pound towing capacity, the Sienna will pull a camper or small watercraft.”
“Even the [basic] CE ($24,340) comes with nearly all the essentials, including dual-zone (front and rear) air conditioning; power windows, door locks and mirrors; sliding doors on both sides; keyless entry; and AM/FM/CD stereo with six speakers and an auxiliary jack for MP3 players. The upholstery is a vinyl/fabric combo, and the wheels are 16-inch steel with hubcaps. Second-row captain's chairs and a 60/40 Split & Stow third-row bench seat are standard.”
“Sienna LE ($25,865) is the most popular model. It adds nicer cloth fabric, audio controls on the steering wheel, a 6CD changer, cruise control, heated mirrors, a roof rack, privacy glass, illuminated vanity mirrors, an engine immobilizer, a fold-flat front passenger seat, and other features.”
“The Sienna was developed expressly for the United States, and it's a very American vehicle, regardless of what its brand name might suggest. It was designed in Southern California and engineered in Ann Arbor, Michigan; and it's built in Princeton, Indiana.”
“If we were choosing one vehicle to fill every transportation role for a large or growing family, it might be a Toyota Sienna. The Sienna is one of the most appealing minivans available. It's among the most powerful yet it's reasonably economical. It's comfortable, responsive and roomy, with flexible seating options and the capability to tow a camper or pick up a big-screen TV.”

“I traded my 98 Pontiac Transport for the 2008 Sienna this Summer. Took a trip to Vermont from Kentucky in October with some 2700 miles and averaged 22 miles per gallon. The Sienna is very stable, handles well and rides very good. The vision is great from the front seats. The transmission is smooth and excelleration is outstanding.” --MILLERJDON

NewCarTestDrive via AOL Autos: http://autos.aol.com/cars-Honda-Civic-2005-VP__2dr_Coupe/expert-review/
"Efficient, practical, affordable, polished and pleasant to drive, if not downright fun, with a reputation for reliability: These are the Honda Civic's hallmarks, and nothing about the 2005 model suggests anything has changed."Vehix.com: http://www.vehix.com/car-reviews/2005/honda/civic
"Few carmakers offer the range or diversity Honda builds into the Civic line. There are sedans, coupes and a hatchback, with an emphasis on either features and convenience, performance or fuel efficiency and low cost of operation. All are notable for their excellent fuel economy, free-revving engines and solid handling…All provide superb comfort for front-seat passengers.""Honda's reputation for space-efficient design holds in the Civic. This small car packs its motor into a condensed engine bay, leaving more space for passengers, especially in front, without increasing exterior dimensions. We like the Civic's expansive glass, compared to some small cars.""Good seats, well-designed controls and excellent outward visibility make the Honda Civic an easy car to operate. The windows are expansive for a car this size and the hood is low, so the passenger compartment feels airy and open. Sight lines are excellent for driving and parking. From the front seat all Civics are comfortable cars; from the back seat, they are less so.""Now in the latter part of its product cycle, the Honda Civic remains a class standard. You can't go wrong with a Civic regardless of trim level, and there are a broad range of choices to suit budgets, needs or tastes. All are practical, fuel efficient and fun to drive. Other small cars might beat the Civic in a particular area or category of performance, but few match its overall balance of strengths."

EARTHY CAR OF THE WEEK: 2008 Black Jeep Wrangler
2008 Jeep Wrangler X, SUV, Black, 53087 mi, $18,900 http://bit.ly/rjSMOd 4WD, Automatic 4-spd, MPG = 15/19
The 4X4 Jeep Wrangler is one of the ideal vehicles for
driving in rugged areas.
It is a perfect vehicle for many who live in Vermont –with its
many rural surroundings and outdoor activities (skiing, hiking).
This Wrangler is a 2-door model, and is the most basic trim
(X). It’s not too big for a rugged
vehicle – it’s just the right size for most people. You’ll also be comfortable –
the 3rd generation Wrangler has slightly interior more room than the
previous generations.
If you are an avid skier, consider this vehicle for the

EXPERT REVIEWS:
“Standard features on X models include a tilt steering wheel; vinyl upholstery; center console; split-folding rear seat; AM/FM/CD stereo; theft-deterrent system; skid plates to protect the transfer case and fuel tank; and P225/75R16 all-terrain tires on steel wheels.”
“All 2008 Jeep Wranglers are powered by a 3.8-liter V-6 engine. In standard-length models it pumps out 202 hp at 5200 rpm and 237 lb.-ft. of torque at 4000 rpm. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard and a 4-speed automatic transmission is optional. The Wrangler can be started in low range without depressing the clutch, thus providing enhanced rock-crawling capabilities, Jeep says.”

“Few vehicles are better off road than a Jeep Wrangler The Wrangler is an icon and it can deliver inimitable fun.”
“The current Jeep Wrangler two-door is a lot roomier inside than pre-2007 models, thanks to its increased width. The comfortable high-back front seats…offer 5.1 inches more shoulder room and 4.6 inches more hip room than previous-generation models. The removable rear seat provides 3.9 inches more shoulder room, 1.6 inches more hip room and 1 inch more leg room for each of the two passengers. There's also 2 more inches behind the rear seat, which folds to provide nearly twice the cargo capacity as before.”
“The Jeep Wrangler is one of the most capable off-road vehicles available today. Its four-wheel drive system also offers all-weather security and its convertible body style offers open-air fun…You'll give up a lot of ride and handling prowess, as well as fuel mileage, but the Wrangler is fun.”
