Finally drove the manual! - Toyota Yaris Forums

60 Somethings · 06-14-2006, 08:32 PM

I was only able to drive a sedan with A/T before saying YES to a loaded Liftback with stick that had just arrived in port. (Portland, OR - a few miles down the road - is a major TOYOTA off-load point.)

I judged the sedan to be acceptable, so knew that a stick-shift LB would be VERY accetable. I wasn't dissapointed.

Wife has even lost interest in the new 2006 4Runner Sport V8 I bought to replace her beloved '97 stick-shift Ford Explorer! She would rather drive "Yari", as she call him, than the 4Runner. (Actually, we are lucky the 4Runner is just used to tow our small trailer or to transport guests.)
