Talking "Jack" in Pensacola~
Hey guys! My name is Jessica (Call me Jess, please!) and I own "Jack", which is my 2010 Scion xD. I bought him (Yeah, I anthropomorphisized my car!) fresh and brand new off the lot in San Diego, CA when I was stationed out there in the Navy. Since then, Jack and I have had SEVERAL experiences together. We've driven from California to Georgia, from Georgia to Charleston and back several times, from Georgia to Groton and back three times, and from Georgia to Florida and back several times. Total, I think we've been in 19 states. Barely two years old, and already has about 49,000 miles.

About Me.
As I said, my name is Jess. I'm currently 21-years-old (Be 22 in December.) and married to a Navy guy. (That explains all the travelling!) We both had an interest in cars, so we figured that we might as well start getting into tuning a bit. He has a 1968 Pontiac Firebird with a 400 block in it. (Currently in the shop, being stripped and cleaned, then put back together and painted.) Since his car is "in the shop" of sorts, it was time to upgrade mine. C;

About Jack.
Jack is my pride and joy. I've put a little over $5K in mods so far, and that's besides the extras that we added onto the base price. (Base price plus extras was ~$18.5K.) He's been driven through approximately 19 states and in almost every extreme weather condition known to man. XD (Blizzards, wind storms, lightning/thunder storms, floods, tornadoes, and hurricanes. Only thing missing now is a sand storm, which I'm trying to avoid!)

Jack's Mods.
~ Limo tinting on rear and hatch windows. (Can't see inside!)
~ 35% tinting on driver and passenger windows. (No sunglasses needed!)
~ 16" XXR rims with Achilles low-pro tires. (Need new ones!)
~ 12" Hertz Hi-Energy subwoofer run by a Lightning Audio digital amp. (Lots of thump!)
~ Phoenix Gold component speakers run by Phoenix Gold analog amp. (Sounds good, too!)
~ Custom fiberglass box bolted to the rear bottom frame of the car. (Not. Going. ANYWHERE.)
~ LOTS of Dynamat in doors and hatch. (No rattles here!)
~ New aFe short ram air intake. (Breathe baby, breathe!)

Short list for now, but more coming soon!
For pictures of Jack, stop by my profile and look at his album. C=
Hope y'all have a good day! <3

Second NO BIG WORDS ALLOWED especially when people are first going to read it on a Monday

Third sounds like a nice setup.
