Default tC dissed on national TV

Not sure what show it was but the tC got dissed. The feature dealt with Pioneers GPS type technology. The host wanted todrive a vehicle with the product installed. He looked at the HUMMER and CADDY - but was only allowed to drive the Scion. Dissappointed he was.

personally if somone gave me the assumption i could drive a hummer or a caddy over a tC i would take it i would probably be disappointed too if they told me to drive a scion. not that i dont love my car just looking a the principles.

Don't be quick to bash the guy who bashed the tC, he probably married his cousin anyways.

exactly. Who gives a $h1t. It is one person's opinion. Plenty of people hate our cars, and Im sure plenty of Scion owner hate other certain cars. Its a natural balance that keeps the automobile economy on kilter.

Get over it.

Top Gear is the best car show on TV. Not only that, I don't believe Clarkson would be upset about not getting a Cadillac OR a hummer. He makes more fun of American cars than of any others in the weourld.


Why would he have reason to drive a tC though? It's not even available there.
