Default New Car
So Me and the wife recently got a new 2012 Ford Focus and love it. It is her daily driver now. And I just got me a new vehicle myself.

I just bought me a 2004 Scion xB this past weekend and that will be my daily. I have been wanting another one since I had to get rid of my old one so this makes me estatic.

Well Since the wife got a new Daily because she wanted a little more room and was tired of the air bags daily and I now have me a new daily. things had to change obviously.


***sniffle sniffle*** I will still be on here almost daily. I love this place. But the time has come.

FOR ME TO PARK THE XD AND GIVE IT THE FULL MAKEOVER IT HAS NEEDED FOR A WHILE. LOL Suckers I am not getting rid of it. But since I can now park it and not have to daily it there are many things I have wanted to do that I couldn't. I will be redoing my suspension. Basically re running airlines and wires and moving the tank. Also complete interior makeover and the outside will be finished and repainted.

I will be posting some current pics tonight. And then hope to have progess pics as I go. This is not going to be an over night transformation. It may take years for full completion. I have some of the stuff to start now others I will have to wait as money comes in. But all in all I am pleased to be able to park and work on it with out the need to have it daily driveable.

I AM NOT MOTOR SWAPPING OR BOOSTING OR ANYTHING ENGINE RELATED. JUST FYI. OK maybe some things I am thinking about the RPM headers and midpipe combo.

Going to be more show than go. But not trailer queen. I will still weekend drive it and drive it to shows just no more daily driving.

Yeah I figured I would do a something a little different. I love the xD so I don't plan on getting rid of it.

Gonna be fun though finally working on my ideas. Been waiting for a while but like I said being a daily driver/primary vehicle and having to have the vehicle for getting family around it was hard to do anything major that required any major down time. Now that it will be a extra vehicle, I am going to be willing to have it undriveable for extended times, i.e like a week versus only having a day or maybe a weekend to do something.

Props, I really like to Focus and I cannot wait to see what the RS can do with some mods.

Yeah the RS should be nice. Would be out of our range to begin. But the 300HP to start would be nice.
