Used 2014 Toyota Yaris for Sale

This car is great! It's really small so I can do a U-turn in the middle of the street if needed, and parallel parking is a breeze. The interior is very roomy, though, especially the trunk space. You can fold down the back seat for even more storage space. I also love the gas mileage. I can drive for two weeks on one tank of gas! I love that, being a Toyota, I can expect the car to last for a very long time and not have to worry about maintenance issues. For such a small car, there is a surprising amount of power. I frequently get up to 85 mph on the freeway before I realize how fast I'm going, and the driving is really smooth. The panels are all easy to read, and the controls are intuitive. One of the best details in the car are all the cup holders. There are a total of five cup holders in the car, including another container area in the center console that could hold another drink if you really needed it. I have taken this car on long road trips (cross country) and short trips around town, and it's never let me down.

Overall, I love my car. I love the size of it and how easy it is to drive around in. I can easily parallel park, whip around corners, back into tight spaces, etc., due to the compact nature of the car. I also love the turn radius on the car. It feels very easy to maneuver, and I feel like I have a lot of control when I drive it. The one main thing I do dislike about it would be that due to the light weight it has, when it's very windy, I can feel the car get moved around by the wind, which is slightly unnerving. However, once you get used to driving in the wind, it's fine.

I originally purchased my Yaris because my family all have Toyotas and said that they were great vehicles. I liked the idea of the Yaris because it seemed like a mix between a RAV 4 and a typical car. It had the hatchback and was supposed to have great mileage. I liked the idea of having a hatchback for ease of use verses a trunk, as it's sometimes hard to reach back into a trunk to reach items, groceries in particular. I liked that the Yaris was a bit smaller and had a good turn radius. I had already decided on purchasing this car before going in to the dealership, which I see now was a mistake. I would have been much happier with a more typical car. I have now had my Yaris for going on two years and I wish I could trade it in for something different. As soon as I'm financially able I may do so. It is already having problems as far as brakes, and it is a very uncomfortable experience to drive. The gas mileage is also not what was promised. I drive at least 2 hours every day, and it is terribly uncomfortable for commuting. The seats are not comfortable, it is hard to reach the dash (radio) and it is very hard to reach the drink holders as well. The visibility of the car (front windshield) is not great. I even purchased a special coating to help cut down on the damage to the windshield and it is already starting to erode. It may just be that the car was a poor fit for me, but I have been extremely unhappy with this vehicle. I dread having to drive in it because it’s just incredibly uncomfortable overall.
