I think I'm going to keep my Yaris (Yoshi) for a really long time! the only reason that I would trade it in is if Toyota comes out with a Hybrid Yaris (already have his name: Hyoshi) I may still get a second car after Yoshi is paid off but I dont think I get rid of him for a while ...

I have had a pair of New Balance shoes since 2006 and the bottom of the shoe has seperated and sounds like flip flops when walking. And have been using the same Gillette fusion razar since 2008.

Mine is gone asap after it's paid off. I'm moving up to a Mazda Rx8 or a Hyundai Genesis Coupe.

I know, I just have a fear of getting old/looking old. I keep my cars for a long time, I just traded in a 1997 Cavalier for my Yaris.

Maybe I'll be 70 years old and still shifting gears in my Yaris

I plan on keeping mine until its totaled, or someone offers me a stupid amount of money for it (so basically until it's totaled)

I don't think anyone will be too interested in it when I'm done... So I guess I'll have mine till it literally falls apart.

Fiat is supposed to bring it's Panda to the US in the next year or so. It may be in the form of a tiny Jeep called the Phoenix. It is a hybrid that gets 59 mpg! It will come as a 4x4 and can perform reasonably well off road. With the rear seats folded down there's enough room to cary a clothes washer. Fiat has come a long way over the years and makes super reliable cars like the Panda (Phoenix). Anything that's a bit bigger with a smoother ride, gets comparable or better fuel economy and is a lift back. The Prius lift back comes down too low in the rear for my needs and the XB's fuel milage is too poor. For now I have the Yaris for daily driving needs and a '51 Nash when I need a little smooth ride therapy.

Um, 2 years. I just bought an '08 Mustang and went in debt. It's something I wanted since '05 and the Yaris is gone now. It was a great car but I really wanted this Mustang. Don't hate me. You guys are great and this forum was super.
