Default New to Minneapolis/Bloomington Area

Hey fellow Scion owners,

I'm Scott and I just moved here 2 weeks ago from Germantown, TN to Bloomington and wanted to find a Scion group to hang with. Is there much Scion activity around here? I went to the Walser dealership to find any clubs I could, and the salesperson gave me a Scikotics card, and told me about a cruise to Duluth. If you happen to see my xB (don't know how likely it would be), don't hesistate to say "hey!"

About my Scion... not too much to it, but I guess I can say it was on the first shipment to xB's to Memphis (I got mine in July of 2004). Thundercloud Silver, 10% Tint, 2 Xplod 12 inch woofers, and just got the tail installed yesterday. Here's a few pics...

Pic from TN:



Took this last night, top of the parking garage of the 8500 building (Normandale & 84th St.) (Can barely see the new tail!):

Welcome to the crew. Your first winter will be tough..but you should like it. After about 6 or 7 winters it gets old lol, I moved here 9 years ago from Phoenix AZ.

We have a pretty darn good car scene in MN. You should also come over to mnsc and join those local boards. www.mnscc.net if ya want you can use xBrian as your referer (that would be me)

We have a cookout coming up real soon for scion's only on the 15 of July. The thread is in this section somwhere.

Well, anyhow, welcome aboard.

Haha - I don't know if you want to use him as a referrer. You might get banned too. I keed, I keed!

Welcome to the area - you met me last night in my tC at DQ. You keep hanging around Flecs and Boobie I'm sure you will be blowing tons of $$ on your xB in no time. They have some crazy pimped out toasters!

Wow, I can't wait to see the finished result! Slowly while surely when I'm off at school, I should be getting a bit done to my Box, but it definately won't be the craziest!
