They will be very comparable in MPG, but you should compare apples to apples: -- Yaris is comparable to the Honda Fit (a.k.a. Jazz) -- the Scion xD is Yaris based, but is even more closely comparable to the Fit -- Civic is more closely comparable to the Corolla All of these models get extremely...

Well dealers are notorious for adding extra needless services onto your regular maintenance. I'm not sure on the prices but you could go to the dealer and ask them what they recommend for a 75k service. Then go look at your service manual that came with the Yaris and see what actually NEEDS to be...
Q
What is lockable steering, and does my Yaris have it?
I am making a cross-country move in a couple of months. I am renting a moving truck from Penske. I would like to also rent a tow dolly to attach to the truck so I can tow my car. I have a bare bones automatic 2007 2-door Yaris (no options). On the Penske website, it says you need to have lockable steering in order to use a tow dolly and to check...

All cars made today have lockable steering. You need to insert and turn the ignition key to steer the car. If you tow the Yaris with the rear wheels on the ground, unless it's AWD, it won't be a problem as the car is FWD.

The Hyundai Accent and Kia Rio are the most direct competitors to the 2009 Toyota Yaris.
Both models come as a sedan, but the Accent is available as a three-door hatchback model and the Rio as a five-door hatchback (Rio5).
Both feel a little more solid on the road than the Yaris, but their fuel economy isn't as good.
The Kia Rio5 is a bit more fun to drive than any of these other low-budget vehicles.
Also at the bottom of the price scale is the Chevrolet Aveo5, a small, five-door hatchback made by GM Daewoo.
Even with a recent redesign, the Aveo doesn't feel competitive with the Hyundai, Kia, or Toyota; its interior is slightly more spacious and comfortable, but its performance is sluggish in comparison.
The most appealing vehicle in this crowd is the Honda Fit; although it's quite a bit more expensive, the Fit is safer, more expansive inside—thanks to the wonderful Magic Seat design—and more fun to drive.
A redesign for 2009 has made the Fit even better, and untouchable in this category.
