+1. Let's just make it a habit of not showing each other, and check out the signature
![]() BTW, never said I gave a damn what people think of my car, or anything else of mine for that matter. Just found it strange that I've had the car for 7 whole months now but people around town chose just this random ass day to sport the dirty looks. If it continues tomorrow I just might have to roll down my window and give them the "Ice Cube look": ![]() Must go practice now

I do agree, most live in an urban area and have no REAL use for a truck. But for us that live in suburban/rural areas, or actually work with our hands, then yes a truck is a useful tool (especially if its partially flooded). Another thing, for us who work in the Texas Medical Center, we sometimes need a truck to get through the "manageable" floods so that the hospitals remain open. |

I get all good stuff. Most comments are "What is that?" or "Is that a smart car" or" Is that a hybrid?"

Who cares what other people think. Of course a fuel efficient subcompact is going to get hate. They can shove it up their asses

ed . Thing is , she's been known to borrow money for gas from other family members so she can get to work .

one time when we were having a
next to the BLAZING BLUE liftback before going in to grocery shop a small boy pointed at the the car and said " mom there's a YARIS " . Made us both and . A shame they have to grow up and loose their innocence and become biased .

I doubt anyone here would say trucks are useless. They are just horrid commuting vehicles.

I commute in my 2007 Tundra....... 2 miles haha, but I do notice that people drive more aggressively towards me in the Yaris compared to my Tundra.

Yeah, i agree with every single thing everyone has said! I usually get people in trucks/bigger vehicles who try to go faster then me or try to pass me at extreme speeds to just make a point. But they get pissed off more when i pass them faster :)

An 8 year old boy, who live next door to my parents, told me that I drive a "pussy car." His parents have Tahoe and an Audi Q7.
Other than that, I get lots of love for my choice of car. |
