Default New XD owner (with pics)

Hi there,

I have been looking for a good Scion forum, looks like this is the most active one. I have spent quite a bit of time on here reading and educating myself. Infact, I bought a cabin filter today .

Anyway, I was set on a Fit until i saw this beauty. I really wanted white, the wheels and tint were already installed. The deal was about as easy as I have ever had. Simple and quick.

I have about 500 miles on the car, getting 34mpg city, and loving every minute. The car rides great, could handle a bit better, but that loks to be resolved easily enough. I did install a Curt MFG 1.25 hitch for my bike rack.

Here are a few pics for ya...

You made the right choice with Scionlife The xD forum is still building up since we're a rather new bunch, but you should be able to find pretty much anything you need here.

Welcome to the pack!

Lowering a car doesn't necessarily mean a harsh ride.

Tanabe NF210's might be what you're looking for. Small drop, and a comfortable ride. Even the TRD's don't ride rough, I've driven an xD with a TRD drop.

Anyways, back on topic here... your xD looks good! Nice bike, too.
