MY RIDE- Joe Jenkins: Toyota Avalon 2002

Joe Jenkins' Toyota Avalon strikes a perfect balance between comfort and dependability.

 "It's like driving a couch," is how he puts it. Jenkins also loves the car's "quietness and comfort." 

While he says he can't think of any downsides, his family sure can.

"They call it the 'geezer mobile,'" he laughs. 

But he doesn't care that his family doesn't seem to like it. Obviously a man with an eye for quality, Jenkins quiets their complaints with this: "It's well made."
