This makes me proud to be a Scion owner. This is a wonderful way to show your support to our community and to show the men and women of the United States Armmed Services that you care and you believe in them. Whether you believe in what is happening over seas or not. This is, I believe, a wonderful way to show your appreciation for the Men and Women of our Armed services and to Support the families of those who have lost loved ones.
Also, thank you to Robert for stepping up and really taking the helm on this.
It is one thing to be a soldger, but it is another to be the family of a fallen hero. It is often said, "the hardest job in the military is being the wife/husband of someone serving this country". Now there is going to be a tribute to those who have served with the ultimate sacrafice.
To anyone who has ever served, my hat is off to you. My family and I love each and every one of you (and your families) and we appreciate all you have done for this wonderful country!
May God continue to bless you and the USA!

Wow, what an exciting 48 hours. First the final design is completed and now this...
In case you have not already heard since the news is spreading around the Scion community like a wildfire the Fallen Heroes Project is now officially a go! The Scion Corp came up HUGE for the project and our troops and committed to paying the rest of the bill for the vinyl wrap (over $3,000).
I would personally like to thank everyone in the Scion community, Blue Media and Scion Corp for all of the support in helping this project become a reality. I would also like to thank my wife Theresa for allowing me to commit my time (past and future) to this project. We have only just begun, the easy part is over. Now the real work of making sure as many people as possible see the Fallen Heroes Car so we can bring attention to the great organizations who support our troops and their families.
Once Scion Corp pays the final bill (in the next few days) then Blue Media should be able to complete and install the vinyl wrap in about a week or so. I will keep you informed.

ScionLife, thanks to everyone who made this happen. I posted my thanks earlier, but after reading everyone's replys, it just makes me even more proud to be part of this. Many of you replied with very important points, too many to quote. Just remember that this is what makes America such a great place to live.
To everyone who made this happen and the support you have all given Robert and the Fallen Heros Car!!!!

I think the press should get this out for the public. I will be emailing our local TV and newspapers in the AM the more coverage this gets the more good will come from it. There are some great groups involved here. Scion included. I think this has helped me make up my mind to get that new xB. Now what color??

Our domain name has been changed from www.fallenheroescar.com to www.fallenheroescar.org to better represent that we are a not for profit project. The new domain name will also be reflected on the car design.
