5/3/ snipped-for-privacy@hotmail.com The 4-cyls have really cheap rear springs, maybe the fronts too. You read reports of them sagging to easily. So take it easy while loading. Maybe make two-three trips if not too much trouble.- show quoted text -

Just one, small, light body, in the trunk and you are bottoming out.

What year of Camry, Scott? The 6 cyl, for CERTAIN years, such as 1999, definitely has better SUSPENSION than its 4 cyl. counterpart. Under SUSPENSION, I include such things as springs, struts, etc..

5/4/08mack- show quoted text - Yeah, right. My 4 cyl. '97 with 140k miles is just fine with the original suspension components, thankyouverymuch.

And FAR worse on milage, which is all I care about.

5/4/08Daniel- show quoted text - ============= Locate the sticker on the front driver side door post and find the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating). Subtract your weight and the remainer is the rated load capacity for your car. Also check the owner's manual to see if you need to add air in the rear tires for "fully loaded - four passengers with luggage" Good luck Nikki
