I like my car because I was looking for a small commuter car that would be easy to park, not use too much gas, would be reliable and within my price range, and the Yaris has been all of that. It is a small car and I am a small woman so I could understand that someone who is tall might be very uncomfortable in it, but it works perfectly for me. My particular Yaris doesn't have all the bells and whistles that newer cars have such as GPS, Keyless entry etc, but since I need it only to go back and forth to work, I feel I don't need to pay extra for those things. I have never had to take my car to the mechanic outside of regular maintenance which is important to me. It is not a car with a lot of power so if that is important, it wouldn't be a good choice. It doesn't have power windows which I find annoying at times but not enough to make me want to change cars. It gets excellent gas mileage which is great for me because I have a fairly long commute. Overall it is an excellent in town, commuter car.

When I first turned 16 I suffered with hand me down cars for about 2 years. When I turned 18, I had a decent job that allowed me to purchase my first brand new car. I chose the Yaris because of its affordability and gas mileage. I have had this care since 2008, nearly 100k miles, and have successfully driven across America in it, and brought home two babies from the hospital. I love this car, and would instantly buy it again should the day come when it finally stops working.
