Well, I bought my new Camry about 18-months ago and I suspect it will last another few years, possibly the rest of my life. I'm sorry to hear Toyota deleted the analog input from their car stereos, but that's not a deal breaker for me because I don't have any cassette tapes remaining. I got rid of my two Dragons in the mid 1990s after buying a Sony DAT Walkman in 1991. I used my Dragons exclusively to record vinyl LPs, but I didn't like the wow & flutter of my cassette Walkman's. I'm very sensitive to wow & flutter. I had no problem with my two Dragons but I couldn't find a cassette Walkman that would play piano music without noticeable wow & flutter. That's the reason I bought a Sony DAT Walkman. I expected it to sound like a CD player but I decided I could put up the digital artifacts if it provided perfect speed stability. I was taken completely by surprise after hearing my first vinyl recording to discover it exhibited no digital sonic artifacts. All my DAT copies of vinyl sounded just like vinyl to me. That's when I decided to replace my Dragons with DAT recorders. I've never regretted switching to digital although I sometimes wish I had kept one of my Dragons. ;-)Good luck,
John Elison
