Default Picking up my Second Scion on Wed!!!!

My wife and I bought an Xb in June 06 and have loved it so far. She has been driving it while I have been driving a 99 Olds Cutlass. Well, this morning the Cutlass overheated on me (in 2 degree weather no less) and it turns out that the radiator is toast. It has over 130,000 miles on it and I am just afraid that I am going to keep dumping money into it. So, I called the Toyota dealer that we worked with when we got the Xb, and he said that they have a new Silver Streak Mica Xa, with side airbags and auto, on the lot. We decided to go with it, thanks to all of ya'lls great information and reviews on this site. We don't have a lot of money to spend so I think the Xa is the way to go. My wife is going to be driving the Xa and I will get the Xb. The funny thing is, my wife works for Ford and we get a 7% employee discount on any Ford car. Toyota is just so reliable, and we have loved the Xb so far, so we had to go with the Scion.

Yay, another xA owner! Now all you need is a tC to complete your set (until next year)!
