The ordinary Yaris (the hatchback) is a full-on Toyota though.. it's the latest 'Yaris sedan' (nee: Scion iA, then Toyota Yaris iA after the Scion brand got the axe) that is actually a Mazda 2 in disguise. I would honestly love to see both the hatchback and sedan under the TNGA platform (same treatment done with the new Camry, Avalon, Corolla, and RAV4, which are all awesome new vehicles from the brand) for the next Yaris, and Mazda to bring back the 2 here in North America. Considering how Mazda is one of the most underrated automotive industries that are small, they deserve a lot more attention than you think.

Hi Scotty. About Hyundai, I gotta tell You my experiance. Long time ago I bought 5 years old Elantra 2002, and had it for two yerars. Zerro problems, just oil changes. Than I bought a newer one, 2 jears old and had it for 8 years, put 90.00 miles on it. Everything i've done was timing belt change (thanks for your video ), one brake pads change and one spark plug changes. And of course regular oil changes. Than in 2016 I've purchased a new Hyundai i20, just fill it up with gasoline and drive. My wife bought a new Hyundai i20 in 2010, had it for six years and absolutly nothing went wrong, nut even a light bulb. Now she is driving Hyundai i10 for 2 years, nothing wrong either. Same expirience got my father, who is also driving Hyundais for 10 years now. Yeah, they are a litle bit chip made, but about a Toyota Yaris first models, they where horific too. So, if You ask me, Hyundai is an excellent car maker.

As a previous Kia optima owner (2008) , my experience with Kia and Hyundai was pretty good.

Modern Kia's and Hyundai's have improved quality wise (I sat in the newer optima and sorento and had to keep remind myself that this was Korean and not German).

The 4-door Yaris is the rebadged Mazda 2. I believe these are being manufactured in the Mexico City area. The Yaris 3&5 door models are from Japan and still have the venerable little 1.5 workhorse 1NZ-FE. To go even deeper into Toyota Yaris folklore, keep in mind that the 3&5 door models in Japan were called the Vitz and the 4-door produced in Japan was the Belta. Different cars but still same powerplant/transmission. They killed the rice-burner 4-door US sold sedan in lieu of a joint venture with Mazda in MX but still manufacture a different 4-door in Japan & Asia (Vios). My Japanses manufactured 4-door Yaris S 5-speed is a very well made car.

Starts, runs, drives, looks, perfectly fine. Maintenance dude...ya gotta do it. The Toys are doing 200-300k with almost no maintenance from most people though. Drive it til you break something. There are a lot of people who can make any car a piece of crap in no time.

[@bennyang8049]

Scotty like you, i grew up with my parents only having toyota cars. I now own a mazda 3 2015. I have over 75k miles with only oil changes and i drained and refilled the transmission once. My friends has mazda 6 and cx-5 and maxda 3s as well with more mileage than i do some over 100k miles MAZDA in JAPAN have taken back all the mechanical components and designs away from FORD. They are very reliable now. The transmission is made by AISIN same as toyotas and mazda is sticking with the manual and 6-speed automatic

"It's not a toyota, don't pay too much" - standard Scotty advice

[@TheCarnivoreSoprano]

Never pay too much!! Lol

[@motorbloxx]

but but...It's a Honda Civic!

[@MrRandomcommentguy]

4:35 Can swap the factory CPU/ECU for a programmable aftermarket ECU but that might cost a bit and involve a bit of rewiring and replacement/addition of various sensors. But many aftermarket ECU suppliers have a database of tuning profiles for many different engines and car models so it's often as simple as downloading the correct file and loading it onto the ECU. Might be worth looking into but I wouldn't hold my breath for something to work straight away for such an old Jeep...

[@bdpopeye]

When I worked for a larger rent a car company we had 2001 Saabs..we only kept them a few months and terminated our lease early.Why? They just were not reliable.

[@Mikey4808]

I'm from South Africa, and the Kias and Hyundais here have become known as really really good cars. Hyundai makes a small truck called an H100 and it's not uncommon to hear of one passing 500 000 or even 750 000km. Same thing for Kia's small K2700 truck. The cars and SUVs are also good

[@VictorDunkle]

Yea right! My friend had sienna and had God awful problems with it. Only 90k miles. Lots of timing chain issues and problem with door locks.

[@AdamSmith-gs2dv]

Ouch we have a Chrysler Town and country and it still has the original chain with 150k miles...

The Toyota Sienna is AWD, and that’s pretty cool. That’s actually a good thing if you live on snow, ice or other slightly harsh environments that a FWD couldn’t drive on.

Scotty what do you think about a 1998 toyota starlet, how comes no body talk about that anymore

I was shocked! Shocked, I say! that Scotty recommended a Toyota mini-van. Luckily, I was sitting down at the time and no one was injured.

[@timsharpe3498]

The Hyundai direct injection 4 cylinders develop a loud knock and the dealers tell the customers to drive them until they blow up. My daughter in law had a well maintained 2014 Hyundai that gave up at 70,000 miles. Kilmer is right. You get what you pay for barley.

[@leandroarrua5795]

Gotta say I love your vids man! I learn a lot from them. Now I have a 2006 Yaris (Vitz actually cause it's Japanese) and it runs like a beauty, better than my 2013 VW Golf sedan ( kinda like a Brazilian made Jetta) it's gott ovev 200k kilometers,about 160k miles... I love it. Best wishes from Paraguay.

[@seansteryu7398]

Only real Toyota is a 1990 Celica.

[@otrocanaldeyutubi9391]

1994 CElica

[@AntonioBarba_TheKaneB]

I have a hybrid 2013 Yaris, 1.5L + electric, it's small and not so good for long trips but it's perfect for commuting in our small Italian cities. I put 115000 km (about 70k miles) in 5 years and it runs like new. Only complaint is the seat are not very comfy for me and also the bumpers are flimsy and made of plastic clips that break like nothing. Apart from that the engine is really the main good thing about this car and I regularly get from 50 to 65 MPG depending on the condition of the roads.

[@perdidoatlantic]

They play a shell game with these cars. Scion played the same game.

[@ALIENdrifter66]

180k miles on my 2010 Yaris zero issues! Only money spent is one set of new tires and breaks, oil, fluid and filter changes.

My Wife and I have put a combined 400,000+ miles on our Yarises and an original alternator finally went out around 200k. Amazing really.

In fact I'm running a 12 year old misubishi magna 3.3 ltr 6 cylinder..runs like a clock ..in mint condition. Was going to change it .but now I think I will keep it. Got a few years left on it. Only done 90000 miles. Thanks. Take care 😀🙃

Previous generation Yaris was not a Mazda - they were a re-hash of the Echo (which was a re-hash of the Tercel). The last gen was bullet proof reliable.

[@ctsfiddler]

Toyota can't build a car that handles like the iA, so they made a deal to get it from Mazda. Mazda cars handle much better than Toyota's. I like Toyota's, they are great cars, but for the driving pleasure, i'll take a Mazda anyday of the week. Mazda's are very reliable, take it from someone that had four and my last one near 200k and running strong. Don't live in the past Scotty.

[@Slenderman63323]

Yeah same thing with Korean cars. They were junky back in the early 2000s. But they are far better nowadays, I'd rather have a Korean car than a GM or Chrysler POS.

[@edgaryzen4925]

I wish the Yaris iA is still around. It now hard to find with a manual with 1 previous owner with a ongoing manufacturer warranty :(

[@Flammable281]

I didn’t know that Mazda is making Yaris now. I own a 2012 SE I bought new. I googled it and see that this started in 2014 with the 2015 model. Am glad I have the original Toyota with the 1.5 liter variable valve engine. Those are good engines from what I have read.

In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency assumes the typical car is driven 15,000 miles per year. According to the New York Times, in the 1960s and 1970s, the typical car reached its end of life around 100,000 miles, but due to manufacturing improvements such as tighter tolerances and better anti-corrosion coatings, in the 2000s the typical car lasts closer to 200,000 miles.[4]

[@dgurevich1]

I don't get the mazda hate. There are tons of them where I live and they are considered the most reliable, and are cheaper then toyotas

[@navi_exl]

My mom used to own a 2008 Mazda 3 I sport Sedan in black with the 4 speed auto and she put about 120,000 miles. Something went bad on it with the tires or alignment and never was the same after that. We ended up getting a 2007 Kia Sportage EX V6 in black and had the luxury package but didn’t have heated seats. Bought that used on 80,000miles with drivetime in 08/13. Put about 70,000 miles and went through a couple of batteries and engine replacements and other things that went out on it and we got rid of it at 151,000 miles and replaced it with a 2017 Ford Focus SEL Sedan in Oxford white and it’s fully loaded with out the cold weather package. It was made 08/17 so no recall on the vehicle at all so far. And I own a 2010 Camry LE 2.5L 6A. Has 176,000 miles and only maintenance for every 5,000 miles. And it’s in super white color. The Camry was bought used in October of 2011 and been in my family for 7 years and had 35,000 miles then. The focus we bought new with 14 miles on the odometer at the ford dealership and got a great deal and paid 17k for it and was priced nearly at 23,000$.

[@Dankcatvacs]

You can't go wrong with the 4.3 v6 they aren't anything special other thAn it will last longer than any aluminum ToyotA and you can fix anything on it in about or less .that 4.3 is fast iron and all they need is routine water pump and oil they last forever my dad's has 270k original engine and tranny

[@justinp8946]

Vulgora true, it’s basically a 350 with the 2 cylinders cut off. Very durable block.

[@JRobert111111]

True. I have two 4.3 engines, both mated to the 4L60E. One has 376K miles and the other has 284K miles, engines and transmissions all original. They still run like new and are still very reliable and strong to this day. And yes to the other comment. You take 5.7 L (350 c.i.) divided by 8 cylinders comes to .713 c.i. per cylinder and multiply by 6 cylinders comes to 4.3 L (rounded up).

[@dmcnamara9859]

Whoever was asking about a ECM for a 94 Wrangler...if it's a GM 2.5 Iron Duke under the hood....a ECM from a A-body,S-10,etc. will suffice. If it's a Mitsubishi 4pot under the hood and/or Chrysler Engine Management...ECM from a Dakota 4 banger,etc. will slip right in from that period of time. Jeeps from that era were a "parts-pin" vehicle beyond the body-shell...just a matter of matching up the correct parts....most available as used, re-manufactured,or new.

100% bang on great advice on GM pickups....specially the 1970 era only problem is the bodies would rust off. If you can get one from the south you're golden. In fact 1970 Chev pickups are becoming mucho desireable and the prices are creeping up. I remember being able to find a 1972 with a 350 for around $2000....last one I looked at with a decent body was $8000.00. There's a fully restored one around town that I live in and I heard he was asking $15000 for it.....

[@andrepauli3143]

I think the guy should forget both the Saab and 350Z and just get a Toyota Celica, wouldn't you agree Scotty? ;)

[@davinp]

Mazda does not sell the Mazda2 in the US, so they partnered with Toyota. Toyota sells the Mazda2 as the Yaris, originally called the Scion iA. After discontinuing Scion, it was renamed Yaris iA. Toyota has dropped iA for 2019 and simply calls it the Yaris
