...you see another xD on the road and grin and wave like an idiot, and the other driver does the same.

Oh maybe that's just regional. There arent too many xD's or xB's on the road here but tC's are a dime a dozen.

-The first thing you do is take off the hub caps and buy chrome lug nuts.
-You thought all the little storage compartments under the rear floor mat were really cool when you bought it but a year later you still have not used them for anything.
-the back seats headrests need to be down for you to see out of the back window.

You put it in neutral as you're about to descend a large hill, and pretend you're in a bobsled. Or maybe that's just me. lol

I always get so excited when I see another xD on the road.

I've got my front license plate (shhhh) and something else in my storage compartment. Totally forgot what, though. lol

... if you took your stock tC wheels and put them on and immediatly wonder why they weren't on the car to begin with or even a legit option from the factory.

... other people with scions take a second look and say "thats definately not Black cherry or sizzling crimson, was that color stock?!" (BCM ftw lol)
