Yeah, but you will pay quite a bit more for insurance. There was a
program on tv last month where a guy traded in his gas guzzling F-150
Ford pick up for a small Toyota Prius.
The annual savings in gas was a wash due to the increase in insurance
in his case. The reason why is smaller vehicles get in more wrecks,
are damaged more, and have more injuries than bigger vehicles like
full sized trucks.
Things they don't tell you at the showroom. We went smaller anyway,
because we felt like it was the right thing to do. I hope you enjoy
your new car. I have seen the Yaris, and am pretty impressed with it.
Wrong kinda GAS...my mileage has always been, and continues to be high...but at least now you've got a new gear-hauler.
....waiting on an A/B switch and a TC Nova Dynamics pedal at the moment.
