Like the drivers, they like getting rammed in their rear.

I would have paid good money to see the look on your face as you watched the hub cap go flying by.

My wife Camry dented ours parallel parking on Magazine street. I was in the back and felt it give on a big planter…but she didn’t pick up on the mistake until I started laughing. You just wrecked into that…no I didn’t.

I hated that fricking car anyway.

Pretty sure there is a Camry Corners FB page.

They'll pop out easily if you heat up the dent with a blow dryer or heat gun. Then push them back out from the inside

No, but they’re even more so than a lot of their competitors.

Driving a camry is like driving a refrigerator.

Hypothesis. There's a street rivalry between the Altima queens and the elderly ladies driving Camrys after a disagreement over who gets the handicapped parking spaces. The Camry driver was there 5 minutes before opening and has a walking cane. The Altima driver is much bigger and wants it more.

At least they are both in agreement that the left lane is for driving slowly and at varying speeds. But they'd both like to speak to the manager.

Thus the cause of all Camry dents are hit and runs by cars that look like this:



This explains the Camry Dent and why EVERY Altima has unrepaired body work, usually on the front or sides.

Some guys wear these dents like some kind of badge of honor.

I had the explorer and the same crack. Had it replaced when someone backed into me. It cracked again about a year later.

I always like seeing people stick the damaged part of their car out into traffic. Like if their front left end is beat up and they take too long to stop at a stop sign.. or stick out way past the white line at a red light.

Wonder how you got that damage, honey.

So they backed into something with the tailgate down? Or did they accidentally jack knife their utility trailer with the tailgate down and backed into the jackscrew?

Same as there’s not a Chevy Silverado from the early 2000s with a complete tailgate handle assemble. It’s always an open hole in the tailgate.
