New 2011 Metallic Grey xD
Today I ordered my Scion! I was looking at the new Focus5, Forte5, and the Mazda3. The xD wins!. I must say the Forte and the Mazda's, a/c sucked, and that is mandatory in Phoenix. The Focus had a nicer ride, but for almost 10k difference in price I can handle the ride!
I called every dealer in Phoenix and there were no xD's to be found. Finally they located on in the color I liked. So I put down my deposit and it will be here in about 10 days!
Goodbye high diesel prices. Goodbye high payments. Goodbye high insurance. Goodbye high registration. Goodbye my really nice 2010 Dodge Ram.
HELLO SCION!!!!!!!!!
I will post pics when it arrives.
On the day it is delivered I will put in the cabin filter. Other than that I will build it piece by piece.
See you guys around.

Somewhere on this site is DIY on how improve the efficiency of the AC system. I've yet to do it to my car, but I intend to in the future. Anyway it refers to a yaris site on how to do it. Here's the link:

if its on stock dunlops and you think the ride is rough, its because the sidewalls on them tires are stiff as boards. when i did my rim/tire swap it got way smoother. gratz on your purchase with the best color the xD offers!

Welcome to the world of D's!
Shortly after getting it and doing any amount of reading here, you will quickly develop a fascination for modding. Do not fight it, resistance is futile. You'll be saving a ton of $ with the new mileage, just hang on to it so you can start buying mod fodder!

@cbmikey, I am ready to customize and the car is not in even in my possession. I am looking at exhaust, cai, wheels, body kit, spoilet, painted engine cover, and stereo. Hopefully before christmas if I am lucky .

Well, I got the call today. My xD is in. I am picking it up around 4 at Big Two. I am excited! I already cleaned out the Ram and I am trading it in with an empty fuel tank. I am not putting another $100+ worth of fuel in that thing!

Wait, YELOSUB is in Peoria? How is it I've worked there for 2 1/2 years, and lived there almost 1 year and have never seen that car!? The only xDs I see around here are a couple red ones, one or two silver or grey, and at least three RS 3.0s.
