Default I'm back: '06 xB RS 3.0

I'm back! I haven't been on here for awhile after giving my beloved gen1 to our daughter. Well, I found a cherry '06 RS 3.0 w/ 22k miles and I picked it up today. I got it from a fellow forum member. The car doesn't look like it's ever been driven. Here are some of the items that have been added, above and beyond the standard RS items:
  1. Leather Steering Wheel with Audio Control (Can Control your iPod)
  2. B&M Short Shifter
  3. Scion Titanium Fat Shifter ****
  4. Envy Green Strut Brace
  5. Fog Lights
  6. Scion Cruise Control
  7. Scion Green Interior Lighting/Green Illuminated Cup holders
  8. Aluminum Foot Pedals
  9. Scion Carpeted Front and Rear Floor Mats
  10. Tinted Front Windows
  11. Rear Seat Protector
  12. Odometer is now green lit instead of the standard yellow
  13. AC controls are also backlit green
  14. Scion Center Arm Rest
  15. Door sill Enhancements - Front with xB
  16. Cargo Net
  17. Cargo Cover/Privacy Cover
  18. iPod holder
  19. Scion Hood Bra with xB embossed on the driver's side
  20. Car Cover
  21. Perrin Light weight Pulley (Not installed)
I'm going to install the pulley the next few weeks. I uploaded a picture but my camera phone took rather sucky pictures.

Anyways, I'll be on here often, just like before, now that I'm back in the Gen1 game!

Will do. And it's a manual this time around. My first one was an auto.

You stole it! One correction, though. There was never a Scion cruise control, AFAIK. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

My first 2006 had cruise, and this one has it as well. I believe the deal was cruise wasn't offered until '05 or '06. Either way, it's a Rostra unit. Built into the steering column.
