Why would a Yaris need a warranty?

I think I'd be fine buying a NEW Yaris with no warranty. They are that reliable.

How is 36,000 high? That's not much more than average.

My '07 is at 57,000. And do you know about the member "Triniper4mance's" '07 with over 340,000 miles.

Wow at 340K now? Last I knew it was nothing but routine maintenance except for an alternator, IIRC.

So I picked it up finally! Had it for just over 2 weeks, already put over 2000 miles on it. My first big trip was from So Cal to New Mexico (1000 miles in one day.) Since then I've been doing lots of mountain driving, usually with three big guys plus me and all of their hiking gear in the back. My best mileage so far is 43mpg, with my worst at 33mpg. I am in love with this car!

True, no wind problems that time. When it was just me and my girlfriend on that loooong road trip, it was wicked windy.

You're not the only one! I learned on a '87 Wrangler a few years back, but hadn't touched a stickshift in like 3 years. So far I'm not doing too bad with mine (bout a week and a half now).

Be patient with the Yaris. I've been driving manual transmissions most of my life and I think the MT on the Yaris is far less intuitive than most other cars. So patience is key with our car. But you'll get it, we all do
