View Full Version : Whyh there won't be a dL
kaypee 11-10-2004, 06:31 AM And it's the same reason why the tC isn't the xC. Can you say... volvo?

dL, however, is an excellent code name or project name for the secret development phase of a fourth scion (get it? on the DL? ha!). But i'm willing to bet it's not going to be dL. I got my money on tD.

No way. A Scion tD?!?!? Then they could shorten it to StD. :lol:

mill0048 11-10-2004, 05:47 PM I don't think this applies. The DL in '240 DL' denotes a trim level. Not a model name. The same reason Honda, Kia and others can all use EX or DX. :?
tD = Touchdown :lol:

Hoffa916 11-12-2004, 02:01 AM StD would be sweet. then they could use other names, like AiDs and HiV :P
bBlover 11-14-2004, 04:39 AM StD would be sweet. then they could use other names, like AiDs and HiV :P The Acura iDs and the Honda iV

that would be the Supercharged tD... if it was a tD and i had it with a supercharger... you'd better believe i would stick an "S" in front :-p
if they go like the tC then itll probably be a tS for touring sedan... provided it actually is a sedan.
sTalking_Goat 11-15-2004, 04:36 AM The all new Scion tD.
Some cars you can't catch

smurf3642 11-16-2004, 06:34 AM You make a good point...
I do remember reading in an article about why the tC was not called the xC...
that does make sense...
KingLou 11-16-2004, 06:47 AM I own a Volvo 240DL (in addition to the xB.....love Volvos....but i'm trying to sell the 240)...........I should put a Scion badge on it and roll to a Scion show. :lol:

hotbox05 11-17-2004, 09:19 AM eh. the dl is'nt trademarked tho. so.. the name plate is up for grabs.
Streeter 11-29-2004, 08:04 PM Scion tD
Scion StD
Scion turD
Scion xD <-- super excited smiley, that's my bet
chewd0g 12-02-2004, 10:18 PM The DL is only a package label.
I doubt that's going to prevent Scion from using it as their next car.
TD = turbodiesel
I want a turbodiesel xB. :(
Seriously.
My TDI Jetta got 50 mpg, drop that engine in an xB (600 lbs lighter!) and it would not only fly, it would probably get 60+ mpg.
Hybrids can suck my left nut. Turbodiesel > all.
