Goodyear Viva-3 tires are only sold locally at the Walmart's in Tilton and Plymouth.
Unless you have a wicked steep driveway or live off the grid somewhere, way down a dirt road in Moultonborough, you don't really need snow tires for driving these here parts in central New Hampshire ...... a-yuh! ...... Walmart Goodyear Viva-3 all season tires will get you there without the very noisy snow tire treads that wear out fast. Plus, when you buy all four tires from Walmart they will do freebie tire rotations on your car as long you have the tires. So's, while getting a $19.88 pit stop oil change, 5-qts Quaker State oil and a new oil filter, you get the tires rotated, no-charge, and have a k-cup of donut shop regular, on the house, there, at Walmart. If Walmart was a little smarter, they would have a tray of free, chocolate covered, Boston cream filled donuts for their early morning, 7-8am customers ....... just a suggestion, here, and they would probably sell more of those incredibly excellent Viva-3 tires. All tires are round and black, but only Walmart has the Goodyear Viva-3!

That tire, the speed and UTQG rating alone indicates they are garbage - not that the overwhelmingly negative professional reviews of them prove that point as well. Shocking it is a Wal-Mart exclusive that says a lot just in and of itself. LOL once again you show your combined ignorance and obsession with price point. |

Driving my 2014, made in Japan, econo-box, with about 190,000-miles, all the miles except for the new factory original tires have been driven with Viva-3, which cost $75-each at Walmart, installed, or $65-tire plus $10-install and dispose of old tire.
Fastest I ever drive is 71-mph, on Rt-93, and the Viva 3 will last for about 25,000 miles, and I always get them rotated for free with every oil change. Am still on the original four spark plugs and continuous rubber belt so I probably need to replace the spark plugs and maybe the belt. www.rockauto.com is where I go for parts, like a six dollar pcv valve and for original style hub caps that have rolled off and been lost, and to Walmart for wiper blades and replacement light bulbs. There's a huge difference between the cheapest wiper blades and the next price up with how much better it works, and ditto that for head light, light bulbs, too.

Walmart loves the gullible like you, keeps you occupied\distracted with "free stuff" all while selling you garbage at massive markups, guaranteed to break or wear out quickly so you can come back and buy more more more. It's a retail "casino" built to screw the masses and the house wins big every time. Walmart stock holders thank you for your continued loyal patronage. |

As far as I know, the new 2020 Corolla sedan 4-door is not made with a 5-speed manual any more, plus it has a huge computer style screen in the center of the dash board, at eye level. So, that makes the new Corolla for $19,200 a total no-go for me.
Who knows, but when ever my car dies at 250,000 miles or something(?) maybe I can find a 2017 Corolla with a 5-speed manual and no big computer screen at Cupple's or at Blaudecki's or somewhere with 75000 miles for $7500 in maybe the year, 2022. Helloooooooo 2022 ....... what you got???
