Well I traded my 2008 Lb for a 2010 Matrix today. My family has grown alot in three years from 1 kid to 3 now. I just couldn't do the 2 doors anymore. I know I never posted much but I read alot every week on here and will miss my yaris and mpg's alot. Thanks for all of the information I learned on here. I'll be posting some small stuff soon in the for sale section for cheap if anyone might be interested.THANKS:headbang:

good luck with your new ride. Keep checking in, unless you'll be too busy over on the Matrix forums now! :laugh:

How is the Matris compared to Yarix in terms of fun to drive and handling factors? ;)

[Grandieri]

I dont know too much about my Matrix's handling yet because we have more than a foot of snow where I live. But it doesn't matter too much because I have a Honda 600rr for that.:biggrin:Thanks.

What did you get for a trade for your '08 YARIS 3 door ? Was it an automatic or stick ? Base or power package ? Hope I'm not being too intrusive . Let us know your gas mileage , etc. Thanks and good luck with your MATRIX . :thumbsup:

[Grandieri]

It was a 5spd with 29k miles nothing besides a cd player and got $8200 on trade. For the past two years I got 39 mpg per fill up.Thanks.

[Hershey]

Keep us informed of the MATRIX gas mileage , etc.. We had a base model 2003 MATRIX with automatic . That got 33 m.p.g.. There's times we wish we didn't traded it in . Never had an issue with it up to the 59,000 plus mis. when trade it in . They gave us a trade of $10,000 . The TOYO dealer sold it that same day . Enjoy .

[Grandieri]

Thanks Hershey, the Matrix is a base model 5 speed.I hope I get good mpg's.

[Hershey]

We test drove a 2009 VIBE ( Matrix ) with the 5 speed manual and was very easy to shift along with smooth engaging clutch . They now use synthetic gear oil from the factory . I think it's GL-5 .
