Had a good time at Scion United. First of all, I had a blast on this trip even though my car got damaged. It was great to hang out with Melissa and Jeff!Scion went through A LOT to get this event going and I'm fortunate enough to be in the commercial. The food was great, music was decent, and free alcohol! Not to mention some nice giveaways and fun things to do (yes, I painted my Scion better than yours)!
I was however disappointed at the valets, but I guess I can't get on Scion personally about it, they ARE going to fix my car, I just wish the person that drove my car had a little more respect for it. I could NEVER do what they did to my car to anyone else's, not even my enemy.
To make a long story as short as I can: I opened up my car and found so much TRASH (Gatorade bottles, tin foil from sandwiches/food, gas station soda cups, and there was even a cup of coffee on my driver's rear foot well that spilled over and stained my Scion floor mat). Not to mention the guy bottomed out my car, which completely screwed up my Kenstyle front lip. The impact snapped both front wheel well liners out and my bumper won't line up by my headlights on both sides now... My passenger side skirt is scraped also... They curbed all 4 of my wheels... And to top it off - They left some kind of electrical box in my passenger foot well which was hot wired directly to my fuse box. Did they expect me to drive out with it or something? I had to wait for their tech guy to come and remove it, then he didn't have a fuse so he had to go back and get a fuse, then I had to wait to file a damage claim. Man, my bus was supposed to be there around 11. I ended up pulling OUT of Boulder City to go home at 4. What a hassle. Glad I didn't have to drive too far.
As for the gas, I lost a half of tank because they put 212 miles on my car. Scion made up for it though by giving me a $70 gift card for gas... Pretty much paid for my whole trip's gas expense.
On another note, the valet driver turned on the AM radio on my aftermarket HU and now I have no idea how to get it back to FM... Now I have to go through everything to find the owner's manual. Ugh...

Wow Glor that really sucks. I hope Scion pays every last penny to get ur car the way it was.
I had an interesting day. I was rushed to mercy hospital during work today. I was put on a stretcher and got a nice ride in the ambulance. I had a severe allergic reaction to the food i had at lunch. I couldnt breathe, i was swelling up everywhere, intense pain in my abs just to name a few of the effects. I'm ok now tho, just a lil messed up from the meds.

Aww thanks for your concerns. I'm feeling better today but I didn't go to work. Its going to be hard giving up indian food but I guess I have to... lol
I have to carry one of those epipens now (in case I get another reaction, I can inject myself). Makes me feel the old lady who was falling and couldn't get up, lol.
