Me, I'm going to strap a tow rope around my waist and attach it to the tow hook and drag my Yaris around town...I'll get my friend to steer and brake for me. ....
LOL!!!


Seriously, I would stick to electric start. Starter should have easily over 100,000 miles. I would only use a push/jump start if my battery was dead and needed to jump start the car.
