May be farewell to my 2008 so how good are the 2017's

Thanks for the info. Big help. So is the 2017 Yaris L a base model Yaris and a "real" Yaris. Not looking for anything fancy. I have only found a couple of these within 150 miles of me. Lots of IA's, no SE's or iM's

Yep, the Yaris L/LE/SE are all real Yaris, and almost mechanically identical to the original Yaris that was released in the U.S. in 2007. All the Yaris has had done since 2007 is various cosmetic facelifts and sheetmetal changes for the most part. The engine, drivetrain, etc. remain virtually unchanged. It isn't cutting edge technology, but it is bulletproof in terms of being tried-and-true reliable. The latest 2018 hatchback is also just another minor facelift of the same old trusty Yaris.
