Car Tour - 2000 Toyota Avalon XLS

It's been in my family for almost 17 years, and I've been driving it for almost 9. And of course, it's made countless appearances in my YouTube videos. I thought it was finally time to respond to the many requests I've received to do a detailed tour of my car. It's really hard to say enough good things about the 2000 Avalon. The interior is ridiculously spacious, the seats are some of the most comfortable I've ever been in, and visibility is incredible in all directions. It performs beautifully during city driving. The smooth transmission, soft suspension, and quiet cabin make for a really pleasant experience. Likewise, the roomy interior and comfortable seats are ideal for long highway trips. Almost everyone that rides in this car comments about its comfort. My mom maintained it beautifully throughout it's early life, and I've done my best to do the same as it ages. I'm a bit obsessed with keeping up on maintenance, keeping the car clean, and even doing small upgrades from time to time. In the last few years, those have included:

-New shocks/struts (front replaced twice, believe it or not)
-Replacing all exterior lights with new daylight halogen bulbs, almost twice as bright as the originals
-Adding a new JVC stereo (connected to the fantastic original JBL sound system)
-Adding blind spot mirrors
-Reupholstering the center armrest/storage bin
-Touching up the exterior paint (though I didn't do the best job at this)

I'm very sentimental about this car since, well, it's been around for most of my life and I have tons of memories in it. It's been extremely reliable, and I think I'll get many more years of use out of it.
