I need to go to some car shows that give out $$$ prizes, to help pay for all my mods, lol...! haha, I wouldn't win anything anyway, my luck... man, I just added up all my mod costs yesterday, I didn't realize in just 4 months I put over $4,000 into that little cylon of mine - heck, I could have bought me a cadillac for that almost, Big Jim!!!

On the same weekend of the Scion Show of Champions was that Halterman's show up in Stroudsburg PA, I just found out a few days ago they were paying $300, $200, and $100 for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places for each of the four Scion models... would of had a chance for some nice cash if I knew they were doing that...

Its very rare to find shows that pay cash anymore. HIN used to have cash prizes, and they stopped that. I went to one show last year (out of roughly 25) that paid cash, and i didnt place.

im looking at up to 20k for a caddy...... 05 DTS.

I know of one in Lancaster, at the East Town Mall, and the one in York on Rt. 30. Their fries are pretty good, just like Boardwalk Fries...

Leave it to someone with a last name "Frey" to have a big weakness for them, hahahaaa! Guilty!

Yeah, well with my purchase price on the xD and my mods, I'm over the 20K mark as well. I still liked the black DTS the best, BJ... Did you pick anything up yet?

Havent picked anything up as of yet. I have a lot of options on my plate right now. I'm looking at Escalades now too. That really threw a wrench in the gears.

My xB...... I have way too much into it. 16k for the car, and probably 15-20k in mods.

Melis, we havent kicked it in forever.

well if you want to meet up with us Jim should we just make it a shady maple or sonic meet so it's somewhere in between? That's far enough of a drive for you!

As for you melissa, you better just be in the area because that's waaaaaaaaay to far for you to drive for us! of course, we'd love to see you! we'll be lucky to get 15 cars though!

But 5 guys would be nice. maybe the one in springettsbury in the strip mall with the best buy. I haven't been to that one but the parking is definitely better than the one on Mt Rose. haven't scoped out the one on 30 either. don't know anything about the lancaster one.

hey all, not trying to hijack the thread here, but I was just sending out an email to some other friends about this, so I thought I'd pass it along here as well to anyone interested... as I had mentioned in another post here, I have a full-blown movie theater in my basement - HD projector, 120" movie screen, 3,000 watt surround system with 15" speakers all around... kick butt!

Summer Request movie night - Double Feature at the Frey Theater in Manheim

Thursday, August 28, 7:00pm arrival

7:30pm - "Southern Comfort" 1981, starring Keith Carradine
9:30pm - "Hopscotch" 1980, starring Walter Mathau, Ned Beatty

Well, when I hold the regular Monthly Movie Nights Sept. to June, I always do them on two nights, both a thursday and Saturday of the same week, so maybe you'll be visiting your parents some weekend when I'm hosting one of the Saturday movies... one of these days I'd like to host a Movie Night specifically for the Scion group...but that's down the road a ways yet, i think...

haha, another advantage of bachelorhood.... I may never want to get married again...!!

yes, well I only said it that way because the only "Scion Folk" I have met in person so far on here is you, al and eddie... I still haven't met april or amy or Jim (or PaDave, dammit!) or anyone else in the York or lancaster groups yet - I'm still trying to go to my first local meet to meet everyone... so I have no idea yet what I'm in for, hitching up with THIS crowd, lol!!


I'm wondering if they'll be rowdy enough for me... jk!
