Separation Anxiety - Toyota Yaris Forums

Finally after almost two weeks, my Yaris is back! Some Hyundai cut me off

& after some mechanical & cosmetic work all is now right.

I had a mid-size replacement vehicle & what a waste of gas. I started going through withdrawal there near the end & just wondered how many have gone through the same thing after losing their Yaris for a while?

I did... they gave me a chevy hhr after I wrecked Sayuki. What a pos boat that thing is. I know the back window of our LBs don't have the best rear view, but the hhr was like trying to look through a skylight at the bottom of a phone booth. I was hoping to get a sub-compact (maybe a Yaris, even) but it was 4th of july weekend and that was like the only car they had left

Damn, did I miss her before she got fixed...

The day I left my car at the dealership for repair, I had to ride my bike around all day instead, forgotten what that was like having to share the road with cars

sorry to bump an OLD thread, but i'm experiencing the EXACT same thing right now!

long story short - my yaris was involved in an accident(not my fault) and the other guy's insurance company is taking care of everything. she's going to be fixed and everything, but i'm without my car this week while it's in the bodyshop. i got the last rental car available. any guesses what it is?

a chevy hhr. all the other cars were taken when i got there(no surprise). as stated above, it's the biggest POS i've ever been in - and i've driven some pretty crappy cars in my younger days! the ergonomics are awful and the visibility is terrible in both the front and rear.

bottom line - appreciate what you have!
