Used Toyota Yaris for Sale in Madison, WI

I have put a ridiculous number of miles on this vehicle, having driven it all over the country in the last eight years, and yet my car is still working (mostly). It gets really good gas mileage, which is important when you are a poor student. Unfortunately, in the last five years it's been having problem after problem. These have all been fixable without completely draining my bank account, but there's always something new going wrong. The car is always able to fit into the tiniest parking spots and the tightest squeezes; I've moved myself across the country by packing everything I own in the tiny Yaris, and it actually fits a surprising amount of stuff inside. The car is comfortable (if you're not extremely tall) and actually has weirdly good speakers and bass for listening to music. It has a port for hooking up an iPod/iPhone, which has also been nice. I feel that now, after 8 years, it is getting to the point where it doesn't feel safe to take it on any huge driving trips anymore--I'm concerned about even driving four hours out of town. It just doesn't feel like a steady car anymore, with its latest problems. It has a very low trade in value so it's not worth getting too much else fixed on it. I think if you're not going to be too hard on the vehicle the way I was, it would last a really long time.

Overall, my vehicle is very simple and easy to use. It's a basic model. I like that it gets really good gas mileage. I don't like that it doesn't have some features, and I wish it did, such as like keypad entry or keyless start button. It is an older model where that was more of a luxury. Newer cars have that even on basic models. I haven't had any mechanical issues, although I've had to replace multiple tires, so I don't know if that's necessarily a car thing or just my luck thing. It's a black car, but it's a hard color to fix if there are scratches. I've had to pay extra for that, but overall, I like the car.
