I think it's time for a redesign, and some new colors. What do you guys think?

Well, since it costs me $1500 to invest in each new tee design the likelyhood of a new tee anytime soon is not good. i still have a lot of the current tees in stock.

I have been thinking about a ScionLife hoodie -- with just the SL logo on it and no cars... but since Summer is about to start that is going to have to wait.

And why isn't there an option for people that DID buy the current one but don't feel that a new design is necessary? And how about an option for people that don't care either way?

Whoa! Easy. I just put it out there. No need to attack me. I felt it would at least be good for some brain storming. Sorry, my bad. I'll stop thinking now if that's allright?

Id buy a SL hoodie! Maybe black with dark blue logo, or differennt color variations. The reason I don't want to buy the current shirt is because I want the design to be on the front, not back.

<=== doesn't buy/wear white shirts ===

A black, or red and black with the ScionLife logo on it would be fine - it would also cover ALL Scions, not one shirt per model.

(I also detest hoodies, but that's another thing entirely. )

I think it might, just MIGHT, be easier to sell ScionLife T-shirts if they were not white, but that's just a guess.

I'd sport a ScionLife hoodie, as long as it wasn't white. White gets dirty anbd destroyed way faster than any other color. Maybe a blue or red hoodie with a white Scion logo. Hmmmm

I agree, and that was my big beef. I want to sport my shirt for a long time, but white get's so dirty so quick.

I think a generic scionlife tee would be a better idea so that Scionlife doesnt have boxes of one kind piling up in his living room.jk.
BTW SL do you know which one of the three sold best and which one you are polishing your very nice lexus with to use them up. If I was a betting man it would be a close race between xB and tC for best seller and the xA would get the car towel award.

Could be wrong, its happened before and I'm fairly sure it will happen again.

Or, one with all three vehicles. Also with sponsorship, advertising, and premium membership money why would you have to shell out any money out of pocket? I understand that there are sight fees, but c'mon.

I think the advertising might ruin it. My request is have the shirt be a different color, possibly red since the site color is red, or blue because most people tend to like blue, and have the image on the front of the shirt. If possible make one for each car. I personally would like to see the cars on the shirt be a bit less over the top and more stock looking with maybe a drop and some rims, but that's just me and the majority would probably disagree. Same goes for the hoodies.

A bit off topic but I'd also buy a SL mousepad if they were available, after all this is my most visited site by FAR. As far as I've seen they aren't very expensive to make either. Just a thought.

$1500??? wow

If you decide to do a different design, contact me and I will see how cheap I can get them straight from korea. I have had shirts made for different my military units and have had friends in Korea get them done for much much cheaper. Quality is always good. Takes time to get them but you pay per shirt.

If you can get shirts, do you also hace a link to a place to get a GOOD deal on Military challenge coins? We don't want to spend more than say $300 on 50 coins. Any help is appreciated.

50 coins for $300 is deffinetly do able. I will email one of my friends in Korea and get a good price. You in the airforce? If so just email someone you know over there and have them check downtown.

or even if you have a friend in Japan they could probably get them cheap.
