Just bought our 2nd Yaris Auto sedan in 20 months

[MauiDan]

Hello again everyone -hope you are all doing well and enjoying your Yarii..

Our first ever Toyota-a Yaris-was bought in Aug 07- a new Flint Mica 07 Auto Sedan with Convience Pkg CQ, All Weather Guard Pkg CP and the Yaris Mats-CF.

We paid 13,200 in 07 for it new before taxes, fees etc.

Last week I bought another new Auto Sedan. This time a 2009 Silver Streak Mica/Gray with the exact same equipment for 13,350 after the 1,000 rebate but before taxes,fees etc.

I have a copy of the invoice from toyota to the dealer and it is $459.00 below invoice price 14,809 (before the 1,000 rebate). I think I got a good deal on this one even though I paid $150.00 more than the 07. (I thought I may be able to get an 09 equipped the same for the same or less but no luck after the 3 dealer Bermuda Triangle technique.

On a MPG note: My 07 now has 28,300 miles+ and after 104 fill-ups I am averaging 39.7 MPG after 20 months. My high has been 49.1 (!) and my low has been 33.2. I have had many more 40+ tankfuls between April and Oct and then into the high 30's during the fuel-additive winter fill ups.

Hope evryone is well..I would apprecitae a little feedback about the recent price (13,350) on the new one. Take care everyone.
