No dummy I have owned 25 F Bodies they are neat cars for an hour at a time. On the daily I'd still rather have a scion,camry,accord whatever and money isn't the issue nor is gas.

I honestly think you sold your Camaro for other reasons. You sold your SS to go out and buy a brand new car? I know Scions are relatively cheap, but that decision doesn't make much sense to me.

You can't really complain about gas mileage either. That Scion is not going to save you much over the LS1.

As long as you are happy though, that's all that matters. I just hope you are.

To each his own. I have had several cars as daily drivers in the past, and I always wished I was driving my F-body instead.

It would be equivalent to being a Priest and announcing on Priesttech.com that you're changing professions and going into gay ****.

my dumdumdumdum only got around 14 mpg... and insurance was through the roof. and i couldnt maintain it anymore. ya i got the scion to take out when it rains. my bike is all i need and personally i knew this was going to happen.

So ya i traded the dumdumdumdum for a scion because i cant maintain a car? doesnt seem like a bad choice plus the bike is all i need.

Haha i dont have 2g's to spend.

Well hope to see you all around. ill throw a rev on my bike if i see anyone.

Fun fact- in the late 90's early 2000- Toyota motor corporation realized the average age of there buyers was going up, and in order for any succesful mainstream car manufacturer to have a future base of customers it needed a new direction in design to attract "younger" buyers. So scion was created in 2003, with new exciting models like the tC and xB......

So if you bought a scion you gave into the marketing and design of a japanese corporation intended to attract little kids

kinda like this little guy
