TOYOTA ECHO...RIP



So this is the car I currently drive (well, not THIS one, but one similar).
Probably one of the greatest cars I've driven. Not only is it peppy and
comfortable, but it gets great gas mileage. But know I see on the Toyota website
that they will no longer be selling them in the U.S. Too bad, because they had a great niche market that I don't think they fully realized. Surprisingly for a small car, the seats sit very high,(and yet still has a high inside roof)therefore making it easy for older people, people with bad knees, and other handicapped people to get in and out of. You actually don't feel like you're pulling yourself out of a pit when you get out.

So perhaps with better marketing the Echo would still be among us...
