Default HELLO

Hello to everyone, my name is Anthony. I call myself AJC because I couldn't use my name, it was already used on this forum.

I bought a 2015 tC for my wife of 41 years for Christmas. No loan payments! I'm not a wealthy man, I'm a man no different than anyone else. I went into my retirement funds and paid for the Scion.

My wife thought I was crazy, she is probably right. But she was totally surprised by her crazy husband! We only live once, and she drove our 1998 Corolla since it was new. Now I use it as a commuter for work, it is still a great car!

I hope I can learn about the Scion here, I also hope I can help with some of my knowledge. I worked on the big trucks for about 30 years, then I got into transport refrigeration. Now I build 24K AC units for a living. I hope to retire in 3 years.

Pleasure hearing from you AJC. Make sure to add some pictures of your car to the Gallery and checkout our current photos while you're at it

Congrats on getting something a little sportier. It's a fun car. Enjoy.

Me too. Haven't made the first payment yet. Hard to do too many mods when it's under warranty.

Hopefully I don't get too much lip for the CAI.

Thank you to all. I will try to upload some photos. If I need help, I'm sure someone will point me in the right direction. I've done that before on other forums, but it has been a while.


The dealership told me the Scion is mainly purchased by the younger crowd. That is wonderful I thought! My wife looks young enough to drive a entry level sports car. I was looking for a new Corolla, but when I saw the Blizzard Pearl tC I couldn't pass it up. It's a nice car!

Those new Corollas are real nice, too. Welcome to the forum!
