My old person trait is that I think 'ghosting' is completely unacceptable and you owe the other person a face-to-face conversation.

I love the Prius, this makes me love it more. That sounds very similar to the UX in my Q50. I wish more cars were like this. I know the Rav4 is like that too, so I think Toyota is just smart, as always

My first car was a 1994 Toyota Starlet. After 20 years it still ran perfectly. I was clueless about cars then as well, never did an oil change and probably never changed the tires as well. It cost 250 bucks at the time. I drove that small hero for 4 years, before I had to sell it, because of financial reasons.
It still drove perfectly then as well.

My second car was a Citroen C4 from 2004. Broke down in a year, and even in that year it was 2 months in the workshop. We did some few things ourselves, because a friend of mine is a hobby car mechanic. Some things in that car were just straight up weirdly placed or so fricking annoying to deal with.

The Auris 2014 is now my third car. Never had any problem until now. Always go to the yearly checkups, nothing found at all. This is the first time I got my car professional car washes in those big automated wash streets. I love that special snowflake (it's pearlescent white, so my wife calls it snowflake ๐Ÿ˜„)

Damn almost ten years with no issues? That is incredible!

Oh nonono, I bought the Citroen C4 used as well. The Toyota lasted 4 years. It was a while after I was able to purchase my second car, which broke down in a year.
