. It was definitely worth the trip (not that there were any 5 speed manuals that were really any closer )! It ended up being almost exactly $2,000 more than my 07 was new. With my '07 I paid the full factory sticker (the dealer knew they had one of only 5 manual transmission hatches in the NE U.S. with a new configuration/body style/model, and another person wandered in wanting to buy it after I was already there), plus T (higher rate) & L. With the '14, I'm sure getting the tail end of the outgoing model year (rather than the beginning of a new exterior/model name, as with the '07) helped re the overall search for the lowest price.

Almost to 300,000, nook. We're gonna throw you a party when you hit that milestone, dude....

. October 7th at 5:30pm Eastern Standard Time = 8 years since I drove away from the dealership in Rhode Island in my new 2007 Yaris. I was hoping to hit 300,000 miles before hitting 8 years. Even with the out to CA leg (1,900 + miles) of a round trip before October 7th, I think I'm going to fall a bit short.
