Simply amazing. I hope mine keeps on trucking along. I was curious to ask you because I can't recall reading it in other threads but how do you drive the car? Do you drive it well mannered and baby it or do you drive it mixed with some hard/spirited driving often? Burning any oil at all?

I driving casually most of the time. I don't really pamper it per say. But, at least once a day, I take it for a topend run all the way to the governor.
I usually lose about 3/4qt every oil and filter change. But no signs of oil coming out from my exhaust.

at 1.5 years I had 30k miles... I can't imagine having that much in the first two to three months.

How could it be casual driving when you say you average over 400 miles A DAY in the first year alone? Over 300 a day for 3 years? Jeez! That's insane!!!!

Amazing. Is your Yaris S an automatic or manual?

He's got a manual (original clutch)

For the record, it comes out to 9,315 gallons of gas used so far (based on an average of 38 mpg). Good thing he uses a Yaris!
That's $25,616.00 @ a 3 year average of $2.75/gal.
Ouch.
The average car, however, would've drank $50,000 worth.

No biggie, just a funny coincidence that you'd bump this thread the same day.:smile:
