 Besides the Avalon I currently have a 2008 Ford Edge and a 2015 Ford Fusion.  I bought the Avalon to replace a 2005 Cadillac because the Caddy had a hard life and was worn out and didn't want to spend Cadillac size dollars on another car.  All have order of magnitude better entertainment systems than my new Avalon.  Even the aging Cadillac. The stereo sounds as if there is only a single dash mounted speaker and fidelity is worse than AM of my other cars.  GPS needs to ne replaced too.  The only function I find acceptable is the hands free phone.  We like the styling, ride, comfort, handling, safety features and performance.  Gas mileage is not spectacular, but acceptable for a V6.If I could I figure out how to replace the entertainment system and those awful speakers I would in a heartbeat.
