xB in the shop: Yaris as a rental!

[Thirty-Nine]

So my xB is in the shop having some warranty work done on it. They asked if I wanted a loaner car (they'd pay for it), and what car I wanted. I asked if they had a Yaris, and they did! It's a top-of-the-line Yaris sedan (not an S, though).

What a nice car! I test drove a base-sedan (5-speed) and thought it drove really well, and was nice enough on the inside. The fully-loaded version is really nice! Even with the automatic, i was surprised at how peppy the car felt. If feels faster than my xB (although they're probably very equal).

I hope I can keep the car overnight to show my wife! What a nice car.

Equal in power, sure, but the Yaris is, I think, a couple hundred pounds lighter, which probably accounts for the perceived peppiness.

now all you need to do is tell them to keep that xb and give you a yaris. :thumbsup:
