0. Thinking about getting a Civic for better gas mileage than my SUV.
1. Never heard of Scion
2. Read a review about the xA in Saturday morning paper.
3. Went and test drove the RS 1.0 that afternoon.
4. Didn't sleep a wink all weekend as I was worried someone bought it in the one hour the dealership was open after I left.
5. Called ealry Monday morning to reserve it.
6. Took delivery of #0240 Monday night!

Suffice it to say that I LOVE THIS CAR! I've got the only one around the Springfield, MO area so far....

Hey, maybe it was impulse, but you made the right decision, you can't fight car love! Give in to it!

Hey, I bought my first house in about an hour. Total intuition. Never regretted it. That's the best way to buy big stuff. Know it when you feel it. My xA was a little different. Wanted an Echo but could not find one. Now I'm really glad. Love my Scion.

P.S. That house was the only one I looked at. And the only one available in my range. It was meant to be. Just like your RS 1.0.

It's starting to seem like I do everything that way.....

I bought my wife a 2005 Honda Odyssey (leather, moonroof, etc) this past Saturday... only 5 days after grabbing my xA!!!

Now... we had been looking at vans all along and that was supposed to be her Christmas present... and the fact that I got a new car before her was kinda bad, but she's happy now.

Cool thing is I haven't spent a dime yet ( financed 100% on both!!) and we have two new cars in the garage... I hope the others sell soon! And JKHY stock better go back up... I was gonna cash in some options to pay off the xA before the first payment is due.

Anyone out there interested in a '96 Windstar or an '01 Sport Trac??? Didn't think so!

I love my black XA, but if there had been an RS 1.0 sitting next to it at the time... well, I would have snapped it up.
