ive been a member here for just over a year by the looks of things...haven't really visited or posted too much....
i'd been meaning to pop by again and check out some fits as the yarisworld board is a big stagnant right now...
but guys/gals, i gotta tell you: i like the cut of your jib
nice photos, beauty cars, doesnt seem to be a lot of bickering upon first look, and ooohhhhh so many mods.
ya, i own a yaris, but i often find the ppl on yarisworld are haters towards anything that isnt a toyota....
would have bought a gen1 fit, but my wife found the seating/pedal position made her knees hurt driving it....so ended up with a yaris (traded in my matrix xrs for it...you may have seen it in SCC as a readers ride )
anyhow, just a boring winters night in the maritimes, just thought id say hi and keep up the good work.

I give you props for coming to our forum and showing some love. I personally hate Toyotas and who ever owns one, but you're awesome. Welcome to Fit Freak.

Wow!
Compliment our "friendly forum" and get bitch-slapped. Alhambra and Temple City used to be nice towns. Idk about San Diego, never lived there. You WERE joking I presume?
man, i wish the toyota's had some of the access to a/m parts like the hondas do.
my wife and i are talking about trading in our aveo (ya ya ya, its kdm tyte) for a fit in the future. i might be a stay-at-home dad, so ill be aiming for a gen1 fit w/ a 5spd...
many canadians on the forum? (i just havent checked as of 930AST, lol)
also its amazing how many sports there are in the US...its because it was just a tiny be more for them over the base, correct? i love the sports a lot, but would be more inclined to get a medium range gen1 due to pricing and options (fairly large premium for the sport in canada - - but i have the same complain w/ the base and RS version of the yaris....like 4000 more for cosmetic stuff - - which is why i own an almost-base yaris (only got the B pacakge in 07 which is rear mudflaps, 4 speaker stereo, rear wiper and power mirrors (as my wife is about 7" shorter than i am)))
drove a base fit in 07 when we were looking....2 speaker stereo FTL, lol....and mirrors you have to move by pushing on them....

Welcome!
Plenty of bickering, that has existed since cars were invented, over which is best: what color, what transmission, what year, what modification, what model, what dealership, etc! It's one thing that can't be taken TOO seriously (even though I did take something way too personally in the beginning).
For me, it wouldn't matter WHAT car company did that kind of advertising, it would bother me. And there is plenty positive coming from FitFreak members on various Toyotas in that thread.
Many people have more than one car, and only a few people here have TWO Fits. Some people don't have a Fit at all, but choose to hang out because of the people that are here. The people here are pretty good people and there's a huge age range and interest variety.
Bonus, there are areas to chat about other cars, good or bad. And it would be nice for you to participate in those discussions, as you mentioned your wife having pain in the seating position of the Fit.
I have bad back pain, and the Yaris seat WAS much more comfortable for ME. Not sure if this link will work, Yaris does NOT have the pain-inducing lower back support (which really irritates my spine): Toyota Yaris Interior
If a person cannot drive the car comfortably because of the seats, it DOES make for a problem, no matter what brand it is. And people WILL need to know what other vehicles are in the same price range, what seats other people have found to be comfortable.

You know man, it's pretty tight that you're cool with us. A lot of Yaris' owners aren't down with Fits. I might drop by the Yaris forums
Anyhow good to see someone outside the Fit Community being chill.
edit: haha okay so I'm a little board and I registered under the same user name... lets see how many haters i get =P
you'll always find hater everywhere you go... and there is definitely haters towards Toyota/Scion community lol i just find it a little hilarious, thank god i dont get offended easily
re: recall/fix: i dont know....i called toyota canada about it the day that article came out and they didnt know anything, lol. also called my local dealer and the same thing...knew nothing (but no surprise there)
um, what do i think? bleh...stuff goes wrong in cars or is misdesigned...even toyotas (or maybe espescially toyotas?). though its funny that at this point ive had to take my yaris is for more fixes than my aveo, haha.
edit: but what do ppl on yarisworld think? they just generally seem to shrug it off and put toyota back up on the pedestal....
but i had a matrix XRS and had a TON of problems with it....but i seemed to have got every item that ANYONE had on matrixowners.com go wrong all in my car, lol....luckily i bought extended warranty (which luckily/sadly paid for itself). still loved the car to death (8200 rpm redline ftw, etc) but hated taking it in every month for a fix or something
