I have a garage but it's quite low im hoping it's not going to be trouble

It was easy. just unscrewed the old one and put on the provided post and antenna ... I do, however, have to remove it now in car washes. Since it is stiff, it got broken off my the car wash and I had to replace it. I wish I had gotten a more flexible one now...

About time I check in. I purchased my yaris in 2007 and have been on here since. Everything I ever needed to know I found on this site. I figure it's time I register an account and start helping with the knowledge.

hello everyone, good to know there is a community for proud yaris owners, got my yaris sedan last dec, and looking forward to upgrade because i got only the standard package,

anybody here from riyadh, saudi arabia?

QuantumIguana · 03-22-2010, 10:29 AM

Bought a 2008 Yaris sedan on Saturday with a 7300 miles. It was between that and a PT cruiser with 32000 miles. The gas mileage was the difference maker, it got my wife to agree to it. It seemed like it would take a lot of getting used to, but I'm adapting to it fast.

My previous car was a 1991 Civic, the Yaris feels bigger, partly because you sit higher, and partly because although the two cars are about the same length, it seems there is more room for people. The car should be big enough for the three people in my family (I don't see my family growing any time soon).

My car lacks power windows, power locks and cruise control. I can do with out them. My Civic had cruise control, but the cruise control had been broken for years, so I did without anyway.

Before the Civic, I had a 94 LeBaron convertible. It was fun, but was wearing out pretty fast. Before that I had an 87 Chevy Sprint. It had a lot of transmission problems, I drove for a couple years without having second gear. Plus the heater didn't work, and I was driving in during some very cold winters. Prior to that, I had my first car, a 73 Celica. That was a nice car, I wish I had fixed it up and kept it longer.

So, I expect to have this car for a very long time.

Hershey · 03-22-2010, 12:58 PM

welcome and good choice

. Are you aware the sedan has seat height adjustment ? I take it that you bought the manual 5 speed . If so , you should be able to achieve 38 plus miles per gallon quite easily . Enjoy

.

QuantumIguana · 03-22-2010, 03:03 PM

I got the automatic. I didn't realize that the seat height could be adjusted. I think I will leave it as it is, I'll get used to it pretty fast. It does seem larger on the inside, maybe it's really a TARDIS.

I do wish I had the owner's manual though.

Hershey · 03-22-2010, 11:17 PM

there should be an arm rest with a cup holder in your sedan for rear passengers as well .

Hershey · 03-22-2010, 11:34 PM

Hello all,

Just considering the purchase of a Yaris... Well, my mind is pretty much made up. I rented one for a long week-end a couple of years ago, and was thoroughly charmed (and couldn't believe the gas mileage!).

Still dithering though about the various options. Will probably post the odd question over the coming days...

Cheers all!

YarisGoFar · 03-26-2010, 11:24 PM

Wahoo! I'm a proud new owner of a 2010 3Dr LB, 5 speed, Meteorite Metalic. I've been thinking about moving from my Neon to a Yaris for some time now and pulled the trigger today. This is a fun car! It's amazing how roomy it is inside for how small it is outside. I commute 90 mi. round trip / day and I'm looking forward to the improved mileage after breaking it in.

slothman86 · 03-26-2010, 11:31 PM

Oh and your mind will be blown when you fold the seats flat! lol

YarisGoFar · 03-26-2010, 11:40 PM

haven't done that yet. Taking a cruise tomorrow and I'll fiddle with the seats b4 I go.

YarisGoFar · 03-26-2010, 11:44 PM

BTW, noticed you hail from Savannah. I visit family in HH each summer and always spend some time in Savannah because I love that town.

There are some nice parts of Savannah. I enjoy it!

Yeah just remember to slide the seats all the way forward and the spare tire lid folds out 2 ways

NickEssex · 03-27-2010, 01:50 PM

Hello all,

I've just purchased a 2007 Yaris and I'm new to the forum :)

Anyone else on here from the UK? By the looks of things the majority of you are from the U.S.A lol, so I won't hold my breath haha

MisterFreelance · 03-27-2010, 04:21 PM

Hi, all! Bought a used Yaris last September and it's getting on maintenance time, so I thought I'd look for some info on these forums. What a friendly place!
