my gosh.. so much driving. Do you have a family yet? I can imagine that if you do, it must be real hard on them. anywho, I can see this kind of job good for the short run... but hm.. not for long term but that's just me.

Yes, I do. I actually got married Jan 2007. You're right it's kinda hard on the family, that's why I'm slowly getting out of this kinda job.

Impressive! Toyota should offer you to make an info-mercial about of your Yaris.

Keep us updated.

Here's a little more proof. 100,000 miles @ 2.54am on 3/23/07

07typeS · 08-16-2007, 12:44 AM

150000 in one year...... thats insane..... I dont think I could handle that much driving, and I love to drive.

PetersRedYaris · 08-16-2007, 02:16 AM

Welcome to Yaris World... Sorry about all the skeptical "douche bags", we just have to live with them.

Pars · 08-16-2007, 02:45 AM

Wow! I thought my 50,000miles/year was alot. But my mileage is mostly city driving.

So, you're still on the orginal rotor and pad? And is the car an automatic or manual? If it's an automatic, getting close to 50mpg is amazing, even if it's all highway.

A word of caution, keep an eye on the quaility of the engine oil. The intake will let in more dirt into the engine and if it looks like it's getting bad (dark) well before the change interval, you'll need to address that asap.

If your job ever take you to Toronto, let us know, we'd love to check out your ride.

I believe! I believe! Sweet Baby Jesus I believe!!! LOL!

That thing sounds unbelievable! Great sound. So do you walk all hunched over from that many hours in the saddle?

pp.sweet · 08-16-2007, 05:48 PM

GOD..YOUR DAT GUY i KEEP SEEING ON THE HIGHWAY..

Sabretooth · 08-17-2007, 05:29 AM

I want to know the resale value? I know a guy who has a 06 Jeep Wrangler, and when it tried to trade it in, they said if he was to put another 20k on the thing, it wouldnt decrease any value, seeing it was already over-milaged.

360cubes · 08-22-2007, 12:25 AM

That's quite the mileage buildup. There was a Prius out in BC that was used 24/7/365 as a taxi and in two years it put on just over 400, 000kms (248,000miles) and Toyota gave the company a new Prius to trade for the current one so they could tear it down and see how components were wearing.

Also of note, I drive transport full time and would not be able to pack on the same amount of miles sitting in a Yaris! It does make a great third car.

tiksman · 08-22-2007, 01:31 AM

Ok I believe you. If you only knew the trolls that have posted crazy things b4 and never came back. I still like the time of day it rolled to 150k.

caveatipse · 08-22-2007, 02:13 PM

I have actually put over 3 million miles on my Yaris in 6 months.

Kal-El · 01-31-2009, 07:37 PM

Just found the link to this thread (guy that just passed 300,000 miles in the current thread).

I THOUGHT THIS WAS LOST IN THE HACK!!!! How is this possible?
