Thats my gf new xB.

She was very excited until just now when she came back from work. I noticed the rear right tire is smoking.

I guess its caused by the tire somehow been rubbing against the car itself. Tire is burning too, seems like a real trouble! Called salesperson, will have someone pick it up tomorrow! Urgh

 

Congrats. What is it with all the scion owners having hot girl friends

 

Congrats!

not all, but most of them...

 

congrats eiso..... is she also joining scikotics....heheheheh
now you don't need to drive her around ...lol
check out the thread ((tragedy ))) or scions of houston we are talking about doing a carwash and also to raise money for the red cross to help the people from louisiana...new orleans

 

haha, i actually agree with that. most of the few girls that used to be into cars were either fat or ugly, or a combination. times have truly changed

 

yup got that msg over at Lonestar, great idea! I'll be up to it!

 

thanks eiso

 

Did you have the park brake on?

 

Parking brake has always been released unless its parked. But I always remind my gf to release ever since day 1 i teach her to drive. Its a good reminder, but I believe its not! Thanks though!

 

koooo Eiso sl member is gone i believe i see scikotics..eheheh

 

I've asked several of my female friends what they think of the xB and they all said they dislike it, but when I've shown them pics of the xB in pure white, their responses are completely the opposite. I like it best in white as well, something about it makes it look different than it does in the colors.

 

Congrats on the purchase... good luck with Toyota's ____ poor white paint. Give it about 2000 miles then look at your rear bumper... you're in for a treat.

 

I'm curious now what is wrong w/ Toyota's white paint? Please PM me a response if its not appropriate for the post.

BTW, nice xB! I would recommend a good wash/wax to keep that beautiful white as white as possible.

 

Will do definitely! But friends told me not to wax your car so soon after you got the car. Some told me at least 6months to a year before you start waxing!

 

I think I took delivery of my car with some type of wax already on it as water beaded up but I wanted to make sure.

The normal paint curing period shouldn't be necessary on factory paint like it may on repairs.

I hope waiting 6 months to a year isn't necessary cause if it is, to late for my xB.

 

I hit up the hatch with wax the day after I bought the car. Does not seem to be a problem. I dont see why you could not.

 

Looks good. What ya got on it?? The car not the grilfriend.

 

Nothing yet, the first day we got it, the same day it goes back to the dealership. My gf doesnt really want naything on the car. But I'll definiitely put rims and lower it a bit!
