Behind the wheel

I fielded an email from Toyota last week, 11/8 and 11/9 in the Seattle area, behind the wheel is here. the message said something about being here at the dealership between 9 and 11am? I could not get any clarification though. For those of you with some time on either day, check out this link:

I will post up as I get more information!

Is it a show? Or a "come look at what we got" thing?

Please do update us soon. That website says they'll be at the University Book Store but not what they're doing or what they're all about.

If they're @ the bookstore I don't know where they're gonna do it since there is extremely limited parking...

Yeah...EXTREMELY limited. They only have like 30 spots there total and all the street parking is taken.

They'd be better off having it in the UVillage parking lot

I just fielded a call from the company doing this event... the only thing that is happening here at the dealership is a 30min powerpoint for our sales staff talking about Gen Y

This will also be in Portland on November 11 and 12. It will be at Red Light on Hawthorne.

They are offering drives in the three Scion models, as well as give aways. Check it out if you can!!

We did have a couple of reps from this tour at the dealership. They had a powerpoint presentation to refresh the staff on identifying with the scion audience, the great response they get, some statistics... It was a great refresher for the staff, they were well prepared and knowledgeable.. If anyone has an opportunity to see these guys in Portland, I suggest you do it!! They will be back next year as well!!

Darn...I totally forgot about this with all of the other stuff going on this week (school, flooding, power outages, etc)...

Anyone go to it? How was it?

I may go down to the PDX one...anyone else going?
