cool, stop by and say hello when you come in for some service and such. I can hook you up with some good places for tint and sound.

Assuming the bit rates are are the same, WMA will sound better then MP3. Thus you can lower the bit rate you encode your songs with on WMA, and get equal quality to a higher bit rate MP3 file. Which means for the same quality, you will have smaller files, and be able to fit more on a CD.

No, its normal to me, I was about to mention it was probably cause of airbags.

heh... I dunno...it's at least potentially a little sillier to buy a car to go with my iPod...
...hm, should I get a $400 accessory for my $17,000-$21,000 car or maybe a $17,000-$21,000 accessory for my $400 iPod?

the one w/ the 3 dials is the ipod HU

and yet another reason why i love my 05. that really sucks for people who would like a cd changer option and don't have an ipod. i know of enough people that bought the 6 disc changer in 05. not everyone did, but enough to make it a worthwhile option to offer again for the 06s. once again i think scion screwed up. they are really on a roll lately.

the dealer i talked 2 said they still have the older stereo if you wanted it. fits rite in

Alright figure this out. I'm in dfw, and i call up my dealership a few days ago and they say that my nb should be in by the end of june. My mom calls them up today and they say it will be in by the end of july. I wish they would just be straight with me.
