We have a 1990 Toyota Camry DX. Haved owned for about 4-5 years. I have always thought it was the all-trac, but just realized that if it was an all-trac, the DX insignia on the trunk would have included all-trac. Does that mean we have a front wheel drive only, or could it still be an all-wheel drive? We don't have an owner's manual. There is a button on the console that is "EFT" and I know we can put it in overdrive (automatic transmission). Not sure if any of that is relevant....

If you check under the rear of the vehicle, it will have an axle with CV joints at the end where it attaches to the wheel (if it is AWD).

Let me know what you find, or if you can upload a picture of the under side of the rear of the vehicle, I can let you know.

Thanks for the reply, and the picture offer. It definitely does not have CV joints, so front wheel drive it is. Thanks so much for the input.
