BEST VEHICLE I'VE EVER OWNED!
The Toyota Matrix was introduced in 2003 through an animae TV commercial. Toyota aimed this lower priced CUV at the US youth market. Except something happened. It didn't appeal to teenagers and young adults. It appealed to old farts like me! A couple of years later, Toyota introduced the rolling boom box with the strobing colored dashboard that was the Scion. That's the one that had more appeal to the youth market! Fast forward to 2024. I'm still driving the Matrix. It's got a quarter million miles on it, and still has the original timing belt! The car has never broken down and stranded me on the side of the road. I previously owned a Nissan, and a Honda Civic. Neither car lasted longer than 125,000 miles. The only real expense with the Matrix, outside of routine expenses? Like most older Toyotas, it occasionally jettisons it's wheel covers like frisbees flying across the landscape. I usually have at least one box of replacement wheel covers stored in the garage at any given time. I don't mind, it's the one bit of fun the car has!
