Sounds like personal problem to me. I have no problem driving the Yaris, I have nothing to prove on the streets. It gets me to 60-75 fast enough to keep up with traffic. It's every bit as fast as the civic or Explorer was. It's way more fun to drive then either of those two as well. I averaged over 38mpg on my first full tank of gas. I've had the car for a week and a half and have already put over 700 miles on it. It's saving me a ton of money to drive. If you don't like the Yaris, fine, don't buy or drive one. I don't see why we should be little one another based on our choice of transportation. My motorcycle is capable of doing 12 sec 1/4 miles and still gets +50mpg.. I rarely drive it WOT any where though.
