Any experiences?

We have taken the lil' Yaris to So-Cal (San Diego, a 900 miles round trip) and I love the thing.. Room for me (6ft-270lbs) and the wife and a friend plus all the luggage. Great mileage and it ran up the Grape Vine with out a hint of complaint.
Later this year we are headed to New Mexico (2500 miles round trip) and we are for sure taking the Yaris.

i drove to boston and back last summer, about 600 miles each way, in total during the trip i put in 2000 miles.
i think the yaris was perfectly comfortable but cruise would have been nice.

constitently achieved 45 mpg on the trip with average highway speed of 110 km/hr (about 70 mph) with a/c on the whole way.

if i remember correctly, i spent about 120 bucks in gas for the whole trip.
