It's the tyre tread. With the "right" tread design on the Yaris, that problem will be completely eliminated.

Anyhow, I drive 70 miles everyday and also felt a need for improvement on the highway. I switched my tires to Michelin Defenders and it made a world of difference. Not saying it will change how you feel how the car handles when you hit ruts etc....point is tires do make a big difference. I installed a rear sway bar and that was money well spent. Although the VW may handle your inability to avoid ruts and pot holes....much like my wife, I have a strong feeling the overall ride in the Yaris is much smoother as VW's are known to have a stiffer suspension which is the trade off. If that doesn't matter to you....drive around in the truck....the ladies dig it. |
