My 2007 Yaris after a couple months of ownership

http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/pic...pictureid=6189
I own a 2011 Tacoma and got tired of putting KMS on it driving around so I decided to get the next best thing for just around town and long trips. A YARIS!
Couple months back I picked up a 2007 Yaris hatch 5 speed with 108 000 kms (67500 mi) for only $3400 Cnd + tax ($2500 usd). What a sweet ride for so cheap. I bomb around in this thing 24/7 over my truck for double the gas mileage and a smooth ride.
Things I added:
-Keyless entry
-Front weather tech mats
-New cabin, engine, and oil filter with 0w20 sythetic
-Bought 4 steelies and winter tires for about the same price of one truck tire
-Bought a heated seat kit (not installed yet)
-Changed out the MT fluid with 75W90 royal purple (wow what a difference)
-Bought some brake fluid to flush out the old (did not do yet)
-
After reading the threads here on some more maintenance. I checked the vertical control arm bolts and they did not look too bad. I also noticed what I suspected was the exhaust a bit loose must be the doughnut gasket like people have said on here. I'll change that out soon.
Also I am going to dose it with fluid film underneath like my other vehicles because I live in NS and about 14 seconds from the ocean so its a must.
Is there any other advice I should focus on? Anything different when bleeding the brakes? I also plan on doing a coolant flush because I have some left over from my Tacoma I did last month and that can never hurt.
Any help would be awesome. This site kicks ass!
