Default Brand new TC2

I just got my first Scion last Friday. Actually my first new car ever. I love it. Today I spilled a gallon (not an exaggeration) of coffee on the passenger floorboard.

Welcome! Sorry to hear about the coffee... such a sad waste of wonderful, wonderful coffee. At least it's warmer now, may help to air out the car.

Yes, I have been airing it out. Ive also vacuumed and carpet cleaned it several times. Coffee smell is almost gone. It was dunkin donuts french vanilla that was homemade. I was transporting it to work and let go of the bag the container was in when I got to the parking garage. Oh well, live and learn.

Well at least you got the first spill out of the way...hehe. Knock on wood, no spills in mine yet. Cup holders actually work in this car. My previous ride had cup ejectors instead of cup holders. I spilled a drink in it at least once a week. Welcome to the cult btw! Plans for first mod?

My first major interior slip-up was a gallon of water exploding as the cap was loose when it tipped over, making a turn.

Had my dog in it today too, blanket protected seats and one hand on his collar the whole time. Seems like Im taking a lot of risks but Id rather just use the car for what I bought it for than be paralyzed with fear of messing it up.
