What is it about the Yaris?

[The Shape]

I hope this doesn't come across as bragging because it isn't my intention, but here it goes. I have a good job and make pretty good money and the wife has a good job. We could afford the wife a higher end car, but there is just something we loved about the Yaris when we were shopping for a car. It is so simple and efficent. I have always lived by the idea that simple is better. I myself have a base model Tacoma and if it wasn't for needing the truck for home improvement projects I would likely trade it for a LB for myself. I used to be a mustang fanatic in my younger days, always building them faster and living at the track but now basic utiletarian transportation is what interest me and the Yaris is the perfect example of that.
