Most Hertz locations rent the Yaris. Why don't you request one in advance for your rental?

^ i was thinking about the cx-3 because i want awd and get as fuel efficient as possible(that's why i'm looking at imprezas right now too). i heard the interiors are really nice, but that it's more cramped than our beloved yaris!
side note: i've seen about a BILLION cx-5, but have NEVER seen a cx-3 in person! is the price difference so little that everyone goes for the bigger model? |

I never liked leasing cars. Feels like you are renting a car, and can't do anything to it to really to make it yours. Too confining for me.

Even with the car allowance, my better half decided to hang on to her 2011 Accord Coupe for a while longer. I love the fact that my Yaris has been paid off for years. I can afford a new car payment, but not having one and occasionally modding my Yaris (and having that money to spare) has been fun. Not going to lie, the new car bug was close to infecting me last year. |

I might like the eventual (?) SUV or van version of the now aluminum Ford F-150 truck...if it didn't run on 150 million lines of code. Also wondering if all the built-in infotainment may be omitted in lieu off a complete plug-in-your-own alternative...as people start dealing with cars that are past support of their operating systems. And I'd like metal mechanical keys. And round lights. And...

I took that road by accident once, in 2014. Missed a turn in Hawthorne. I knew I'd get to 395 eventually, so I stuck with the unplanned detour. Yosemite was on fire at the time. Quote:

Wow! That's intense. My Metro didn't have cruise either, and drove it to Oregon four times, but I was able to kind of wedge my foot way up high on the pedal and more or less keep it at the same speed. The Yaris throttle is softer and way more sensitive.
I got back yesterday. My left foot was bored (automatic), my right foot sore. I averaged 39.9 mpg. |
