Default Scion tC On Autoblog

Hey All,
One of my favorite review sites just picked up a tC for their week long testing. You cna check out day one at:

http://www.autoblog.com/entry/8391854652028387/

I haven't even read what they have to say yet, but I like to see real down to earth people (not like the editors of Road and Track) review things. Just thought you might wanna read.

yeah...that review really sucked. I would be ____ed If I loaned them a Tc and all they produced was a couple of paragraphs. Stick to car and driver.

hmmm, maybe since it's called a "blog" and that they'll have the car for a week, there might just be one, or two, or maybe 6 more entries...

Go through the archives and see their other reviews if you care. In general, they do a day 1 about first impressions, then they do 2 or 3 more reviews over the week talking about how it actually drives, quality, fit and finish, etc. The guy just got the car and it would be kinda bull____ for him to write 10 pages about it now. He's got to drive it around and see what it's like before pronouncing it a winner or a loser, you know? Anyway, it's a great site just for car news. Yes it's a blog, so you get a lot of little entries, rather than a couple big ones. Check it if you like it.

I feel you there - it sounds like he's already got a few days worth of stuff saved up, or that he heard more rattles and things and wanted to group them together after he's seen how it holds up over a few days. I guess we'll find out.

I'm definitely a review *****, so I always want the posts I care about to be longer, but all in all, I'm glad there are just a lot of posts on the site. It keeps me alive at work, at least now that I've read the SL forums long enough to know everything there is about the tC
