Default Calling all Scions Knoxville, TN

Hey all, im not new to the scion world but a new owner, were is all the comradary in this community. I used to own a 03 mazdaspeed protege, and was always in and out of the msprotege.com forums. It was rare to pass a Mazda in knoxville without a lil flash of the headlights, but it seems like I pass scions all the time and the drivers always have stupid look on their face when I show a little love by flashing my headlights when passing, or honk the horn.

Out of the past 3 months that I have owned this car, I have only been able to make contact in this way with one Polar White xB in the clinton area, and i'm pretty sure that the only reason he/she is flashing back is because I am also rolling in a Polar White xB.

Can I please get little love?

I have seen a few tc's wave to each other, but i mean what is it group up according to car? I can't seclude myself to just xb's cause i love all the scions. I been looking at these cars since their release. my 03 mazdaspeed protege, got me in alot of trouble, tickets, highrisk insurance, and more. I wanted to roll a tc, but I also need to keep myself out of trouble, so the xb was the way to go. I have rolled by many a police officer in the xB speeding, and they seem to not notice.

it just seemed that I was having a bad month I had that car for over 2 years and luckily no tickets then all the sudden i got 3 in a row and 2 were by the same police officer. all 3 were 22 over speed limit i had a aggressive driving and improper lane change and something else can't remember. then, i decided to switch cars with my dad for a few he had a 02 lancer oz rally hoping i'd hang low for awhile, and i took this girl out and it was lightly raining outside and i was showing off pulling the e-brake and kicking it out on this old back curvy road @ 3 in the morning never seen a car on that road that late at night, and i came around this turn and hit a car head on well not directly headon i was able to pull it back over and we glanced off one another causing $3500 in damage to the lancer, and totalling the guys 626. and next thing i know my insurance got dropped and i had to run to geico for high risk. Oh well runs in my family just about all the guys at my age were on high risk.

I got a speeding ticket in my Polar White xB about two weeks ago in Putnam county.
It was about eleven thirty at night and I needed to be in Nashville at eleven. I was coming over the mountain at about ninety and saw cars in front of me hitting their brakes. I started slowing down but was still doing 80 in a 65 when I passed the trooper. Bummer.
He was pretty cool though, he asked me if I knew I was doing eighty and I looked at my car and said "really? awesome!"

No, I think that's Deena actually... young lady, blonde hair. Really wonderful person btw.
I hate it that we've reached a point where I can't remember everyone who's gotten a Scion. For the first year or two I knew every Scion I passed on the road, but the old brain cells aren't working as well as they used to and there are more Scions out there now.
I still flash the lights and wave whenever I see one though.

Hey all, I can tell you right now, I try to show some Scion love whenever I can. I see tons of xB's out and always try to wave or say hi. Ryan, we should plan an event and you can meet some of us that arent snobby.
