Stopped off at the Indy car show on the 26th and got this green scion sock thing at their booth. Any idea what it is?

i thought it was a can cooler because it will fit; but then you can't set up drink down or it will fall over because of the seam. so your guess is as good as mine.

it's for your iPod. they come in many different colors too. i've seen purple, blue, light blue, green.... i forget the rest, but there's a few

if you were lucky enough, Scion did give out actual socks you can wear.. but i never got one.

Heck, I keep returning to the Scion site hoping that they will finally put out some 'thing' in the on-line store that I would actually want to buy, but no luck yet. *sigh* Even a decent "Scion" watch or something would do...

(I.E.: something like one of these...



instead of Wal-Mart type stuff.

Scott sucks.

As mentioned previously, the sock is for your iPod.

I can buy the Scion socks as a promotional item, but they're like $6 a pair and I would have to buy 25 of them! Spending over $100 on socks is just wrong.

A Luminox Scion watch? NEVER! Hahahaha! Although that would be AWESOME, they would never do it. . . I remember even the first Lexus watches were cheaply made (considering it is a premium brand).

I bought Scion pens, and they were pretty cheap too. . .

Yeah, but one can dream, eh? The Luminox Titanium Navigator would be a bit of a push for a low-end car brand. (I don't do Luminox, myself, but the watch I DO mostly wear is the one the Luminox is a copy of. Watch)

Thing is, while there are a LOT of decent watches out there, and a lot of decent watch bands, Scion chose a design from the near the bottom of the barrel.

Somehow it seems that Scion might be able to come up with more than a few shirts, pens, key rings, backpacks and caps with logos for owners to buy. CD holders, travel bags, luggage, jackets, book covers, travel blankets, pillows, mugs, any of dozens of things that a Scion logo could be easily and cheaply added to...

Ah, well.
