Default Re: Yaris worth it???
I really haven't had a reason to post here since July 2005 when I traded my '03 Tundra 4x4 for a 1st generation Yaris (sold as the Echo Hatchback here in Canada).

I can honestly say I've never looked back - the Yaris has been a dream to own and drive (I'm 6'6" tall). No service issues at all - just Mobil1 and various filters to date!

Oh - and when you get to our current (July 12th, 2008) USD $5.30 per US gallon I'll start listening to the whining about expensive gas ;-)

Best mileage I've managed to date is 49.5 miles per US gallon (4.8L/100Km for those of us that speak metric) - that was fully loaded to stated max load for a sustained multi thousand mile trip to the Sub-Arctic.

As I said - very happy with the car,

Paul

EDIT to add:

I just uploaded a pic of my car for those of you not familiar with the 1st generation yaris . . .
