They want my Yaris....

I don't know that it's so much a demand issue as it is a sales issues. I get these for my Tundra and Yaris all the time. They just want you to come in and get a new car. I could be wrong but that's what I assume.

THIS in Red. It is a well known tactic at this point. Most of these dealers will try and get you to come in for 2 reasons:

1) They think they can "upgrade" or upsell you to a new vehicle
2) With the fact that gas has stayed above $3.50/gal they think they can get you to trade your vehicle for less than what you really should and turn it around to make a better profit than what they make on certain vehicles on the initial sale.

The Yaris barely made any profit for dealers on initial sales due to how aggressively the 07-09/10 models were being sold.
