2010 Yaris Liftback
55,000 -ish miles (bought in March 2011 with 6k) * Front tires in '12 * Battery died yesterday (11-5-14). Was the original and build date for car is late '09, so it was about due to go bye-bye. I'd noticed that it didn't start with the usual enthusiasm these days, and yesterday POOF! Got the cheapie 26r @ Sears. * Misc stuff: Rear brakes make a noise sometimes, right before car comes to a stop, but usually only when it's hot out, which is most days in SoCal. Heater/AC has that musty smell. And that's it. Lots of little things I don't like about it, but most can be addressed (sound insulation project coming soon, rear sway bar, etc.) Don't know how long I'll keep it, but if it's half as reliable as my '88 Festiva, I'll be happy.

My 26r from Sears lasted for 3 years (9-9-2009 to 9-9-2012) with somewhere between 85-90k miles driven during that period. On 9-9-2012, Sears was no longer offering the 26r in my area
. I ended up getting a Wal-Mart 26r...and that only lasted 16 months and about 49k miles. We may be the only two members to ever go with the 26r. I hope you have the same good luck I feel I had (given the heat here) with my Sears 26r |
