2008 Toyota Tacoma

Trim: Towing Package
by Mike4628 on 03-02-2017
Used as a work truck
The most useful accessory was the power plug at the back of the bed. Used the outlet to recharge my power tools.

Used as a landscape truck it lacked sufficient tie down points in the bed. There were 2 D-rings in the back but no support in the front. Had to use the plastic rails on the side and hope they didn't fall apart.

The side mirrors did not come with defrosters so in the winter I would have to spend extra time deicing them.

Good balance of power and stability with comfortable interior.

2012 Scion iQ

Trim: Base
by Mike4628 on 03-02-2017
Not Built for Canada
Fuel economy is hit or miss with this car. If you drive 80km/hr - 100km/hr on back roads then you will get the rated economy of about 6L/100km. If your are a city driver and travel 100km/hr - 120km/hr the economy is around 8L/100km.

Cup holders are lacking with only one in the front. My passenger fights who gets to hold the coffee and drive.

Seats are soft but are paper thin for any ride longer than 2hr.

With the driver seat pushed back it has more space than an SUV. The back seats in my car are folded down most of the time to provide space for grocery shipping.

This is a car for local city use, made for 2 adults and a child who do not drink coffee and don't need to transport anything more than 2 backpacks.
