Pandacious - Richard's build thread
It was mid-September, year 2011. I had taken an adventure to search for the right vehicle for me. I had just PCS'd to Fort Lewis to start my career as a newly, hand-crafted Medic for the U.S. Army. The adventure started online, spending countless hours looking for a Scion xB that was at a good price.
I had found one. It was located at I-5 Toyota/Scion in Chehalis, WA. This 2006 Shadow Mica xB was priced at $9,888. It also had 63,800 miles as well. GREAT! Awesome price and low miles. When I bought the car, I had met Tom and Brian to help me look at the car and see if it was a good buy. They agreed, so I went for it. The box was completely stock, looking like a Jeep but soon that will change.
Now time for some eye candy!
When car was bought:
Got rid of the pig nose and added this:
WTF, Washington?! Y U SO COLD?
Added Panda sticker! :3
