To the dude and his friend in their Liftback who gave me a thumbs up today. I was having a bad day but that made my day a lot better. It's great to own a Yaris!

Aw shucks.

I felt that way yesterday when I was in a store and the manager came out to find out whose Yaris that was in parking lot--mine! He has a sedan and loves it about as much as I do my HB. These cars just seem to make people happy!

*Chris07LB* · 05-10-2007, 05:34 PM

Wasn't me, but

falkor_99 · 05-10-2007, 05:43 PM

I will have to start doing that now when i see other yari (isnt that the correct word for plur yaris)...

kurokoma-kun · 05-10-2007, 06:30 PM

giving thumbs up is traditional among miata drivers (my other car) ... so much so that i'm always surprised when i DONT get one

*Astroman* · 05-10-2007, 06:31 PM

I'm only 1 of 2 hatch owners (apparently) in central WA, but when I do see another one I do wave. So far, that's been once.

what a community we have here.

Doug007 · 05-10-2007, 07:36 PM

When I owned a British car (MGB) back in the late 70's we used to flash headlights at each other, irregardless of the particular make. That might be a good tradition to get reestablished. :)

drifto · 05-10-2007, 07:51 PM

nice

good to see that happening. im over here in palisades park. havnt seen any yaris' yet

Doc Zaius · 05-10-2007, 07:56 PM

OMG we have so many Yarises/Yarii in Ottawa... they're everywhere! Not too many RS's though. I always try to catch eyes or give props to other drivers (a la motorcycling) but I get nothing!! Booo!!

To Dory... hope your day is going better!

SailDesign · 05-10-2007, 09:21 PM

I usually wave, but so far in RI have got nothing in return but blank stares.
Such is life, and it won't stop me waving.

churp · 05-10-2007, 11:03 PM

Not any Yari close to me, but the cutie in the local Xb waves occasionally....keeps the old Toad happy!!!!

(guess you can call an Xb a cousin?!?!)

jmjonesey · 05-10-2007, 11:06 PM

I thought i was special where I live (right outside the middle of nowhere)

I was driving down a country road, and saw a White LB

I must have looked like an r-tard gawking at that pretty car.

I think the other person was doing the same

Thanks! It got a lot better after that thumbs up, seriously

Lillydot · 05-12-2007, 10:21 AM

in boston, it a rule: you don't look at other peole while you drive! i've seen other yarii on te road, but since no one is looking, its kinda hard to give the thumbs up or the wave

and i like to wave, too!
