lol - I left my car sitting for a couple of days, went to start it and didn't crank at all. Tried again, it cranked but would not start. Third time it cranked for about 10 seconds then started but sounded really groggy (you know what I mean).

Time to get a new one.

Anyone know a good type that is the same height as OEM? I am in Canada so Crappy Tire works for me (they will give you $20 back for exchanging your dead one).
The Yaris takes a number 35 battery. 35 is an industry designation and any manufacturers #35 will fit.

BTW, an Auto Zone "Duralast" battey is reported to be very good. It is made by "Johnson Controls", the same company that makes Optima batteries.
I don't know if they expanded up by you yet.
