Sure, and the tens of thousands of other Yaris drivers who figured it are just that much smarter than you are!

Y'know, if you hadn't moaned all about the Yaris you probably wouldn't be getting so much flak for this; but you were so critical of your Yaris--and actually claimed the Suzuki Swift was a better vehicle --where it turns out you were to blame.

And now you are claiming it is a design fault!

Sorry, but what sucks is your ability to accomplish simple tasks such as driving an automatic (c'mon, it's about as hard as driving a golf cart) or reading the owners manual (takes all of about ten minutes to accomplish for your average adult, so you should be able to comprehend it in an hour or two).

I don't mind people who realize their limitations and ask for help, but to blame the shifter design only further demonstrates your ignorance. I am glad I don't live anywhere near Frankfort, Kentucky as the mere thought of you operating a motor vehicle on public highways scares me more than brake failure and/or teenagers!

Sorry...but this had me laughing pretty hard. Most of all because...well, it's true.
