lol, man. You spot all the cars before I do!

I thought it was the Utrecht xB for a second. But I don't think that xB has a bB sign.
I think I'm just at school too much, and if it makes you happy the Utrecht xB is news to me even though I go there quite often...

Well, it's not an official Utrecht xB But everytime I go, there's a camo xB parked outside. I assume it belongs to one of the workers?

That was me #1755 I have a 1 1/2 to 2 hour drive home every night from work and I don't waste time getting there. It was nice to get a wave and talk from another Scion owner most of the time I can't even get a wave. Hope to see you at a meet sometime

A BSP tC was gating me for a while going Northbound 880 around teh Hayward/ San Leandro Area. I dont know if that was to say hello or the driver is in a rush to somewhere.

Dunno if it's just me, but why do many tC drivers tailgate me at first, change lane, then take off like they're running away from the blue birds? It would be nice to wave at some, but I don't get the chance to since they like to pass me up all the time. Maybe I just drive too slow or something. Actually, I was on Leeward Dr over in eastside SJ goin to my grandma's, passed up a fm tC that was pulled over on the side, nodded at him, then all of a sudden tailgated by him, then I turned into the driveway. Lastly, homeboy just took off and gunned it down a strict (cameras) 25mph neighborhood. One other time, I nodded at an xB driver when we were side by side in a 40mph street, and she glanced over for like 1/2 a sec, and floored it and took off.

We should create some kinda of hand signal so that you will know the person is from SL. Our very own ScionLife "gang" hand gesture.

hmm... if i see one.. i'll pull up behind it and flash my hazards.... it's not like flashing your brights (cause that would be more stupid)... but umm... i dunno... i always do that to say hi.. and then i try to get next to them to wave...

saw a SW on 280 headed southbound this afternoon. i say about 4:30ish?

actually... flashing hazards if you go in front of someone is a flick off or also saying that you won the race (if you were racing). It's pretty much like high beaming.

How about signaling left first then right.

just dont make an "L" with your fingers someone might think you are calling them a loser if they dont go on SL.

superscionik its not just you. i never had that kinda stuff with xB or xA drivers though they are always nice and wave. tC's on the other hand always think i want to race if i just nod my head. if i wave its all good they just return with some kinda gesture

How about pointing two fingers up almost making a peace sign but instead the fingers are together... plus you can use that hand sign to wave with.

Spotted a BCP xB on the way to work. Lowered, cf hood, and some nice wheels. Driver caught me checking out the car at the stoplight and threw a peace sign

Also spotted a TCM xB with an Apple decal near the Arden area today.
