Well we traded in my Accord to get the Camry and we traded in my wives old Element for the Yaris. Sometimes we miss the old cars but not really. I think my wife misses the Element more than anything but that thing was a gas guzzler. My dad traded in our Wrangler for his 300, now that thing I miss...a lot.

Got rid of my 2003 F250 5.4L Supercab longbed. Went from 15.5 mpg average to 41.2mpg. Just a little difference!

I had a 04 Chrysler Sebring convertable, which I don't miss at all. But I do miss my 1989 Toyota 4Runner with 245K miles on it. I sold it last March for $3700, didn't want to pay gas and insurance, because it was just sitting around. I put that money on my loan.

I knew I could get more selling mine privately than taking the (pathetic) trade-in offer, but then I started getting cold feet about showing it to strangers, not to mention getting in cars with them or handing off the keys for a test drive; yikes (I'm a single woman). Thankfully, I got four or five nibbles from just advertising it here at work, and found a good home for it for a good price. Now I can "move on" to my cute Yaris!

Okay otterhere, now you have to change your profile to show a Yaris and
not the Suzuki Swift.

Oh, dear; hope that's not as complicated as posting pics (which I have yet to master)...

I see you found the UserCP


And when you learn to post pics, I can really put this up properly.

I traded in my 1994 Toyota Corolla for the Yaris. I was soo sad to let go of it. It was my first car and my dad's last car. Breaking up is hard to do!
