Especially at the times like this for Toyota suffering from all sorts of "Toyotas are not reliable" brand-image, they will most likely use u as a front-line advocate of Toyota reliability. Anyways, hope you end up with some freebies from the Corp lol

wow the only cars that had more mileage were a '96 Dodge ram (1 million! but "the transmission has been replaced a few times"), a '98 dodge neon (527k, but with a new engine @ 300k) and a '67 Plymouth Satellite (450k, restored in the 90's) and none of the cars looked as good as the Yaris! The little paragraph they wrote seems a bit underwhelming...

Quote:
Normally, it takes a lot more than four years to put 400,000 miles on a car. But Jameel Hosein has already gone past that in a 2007 Toyota Yaris. Hosein is a courier living in South Florida and he puts at least 400 miles a day, six days a week on this car. So far, he says, he's had no problems.
but the others were like "his Plymouth Satellite could have gone around the earth more than 18 times." and "They named the SUV Green Buddy and the pair also have a white Jeep Wrangler named Space Ghost." seems like they would wrote more about the 4th highest mileage car, that didn't have any thing major replaced, and looks as good as it does...

Just don't let them see you speeding at 90+ mph, they might arrest you for speeding retroactively.

Just kidding, but seriously, they wouldn't approve of it for real though.

There's no reason they wouldn't be. Same engine, transmission, and most other mechanical parts.
