Pretty much. I make over 3x what I made in 2008, so there's a lot more budget available for cars. I bought the Yaris in 08 because of the reliability, cost, and fuel economy. Now I've got enough cars that it doesn't really matter if one or two of them isn't working lol. The old 190D is insanely comfortable and the 2010 E350 is a lot sportier. The old D21 is just an old D21 but I love that little truck, drove it to work today actually.

Or you could be like me, an old timer that went from buying new in 2006 to trading it in 8 years later, and then eventually picked up another Yaris as a second car. Haha.

Join? I never left! lol

I'm going into my 11th year with my Yaris and I just got around to installing a sound system. More to come, too. Even if I decide to buy something new/different, I'll just put the Yaris into full project car mode.

Just get an oil catch can for the Kia. GDI engines would get buildup on the intake valves :(
