A car of interest....

I usually go on a trip from Montreal to St Pete Florida twice a year and its the rare trip i'll see more than one or two other Yaris on the whole journey, up here in Montreal almost every other car is a Yaris or an Echo.

If I lived in the states I'd probably be driving a pickup truck or a land cruiser.

Here I cringe filling the tank in my Yaris.

In the states everything seems to be a notch up from Canada, the sub-compacts don't count, Compact Cars like the Corolla are the bottom rung, a Camry is a family car.

Europe is the opposite way and a Corolla would be a family car.

The amount of car people think they need is slightly absurd. People who have kid and think they need a minivan or suv when they really just need less stuff.

Power mirrors aren't an option?
