Hi, guys. I discovered this forum back in the summer and lurked in the Fuel Economy Forum, but did not join. Last weekend, YAR1S left a YarisWorld card on my car when it was parked in the lot outside of his job, so I joined. It is nice to see so many other people with this car -- there really aren't that many in my town.
Before getting this Yaris, I'd never bonded with a car. :biggrin: There weren't any liftbacks for sale at my local dealership, so I went on a road trip to drive one. The only one they had at that dealership was out of alignment, so I ordered one through the credit union's car buying service. White Yaris arrived a few days later. It was love at first sight. :smile:
I liked the Yaris so much that I wrote to the chairman of Toyota to tell him. The GM of customer relations wrote back to me and sent a really cool diary. Here's the text of what he wrote.
