The Raceway Blue is very bright but not at all gaudy like the promotional prictures show it.  And because the same color is used for the seats, it is very striking.

The final thing that bothered me was the graphics, but in person that stripe really sets off the lines of the car.

Adding to all the visual enhancements you then also get and upgraded Alpine audio system with navigation.  All for under $22,000.

You know that you have a hit when all of the Toyota salespeople come into the Scion showroom and want to drive the vehicle.  I finally had to block the RS in with two other cars and hide the keys.

The North Texas chapter of Scikotics will be meeting on Sunday, May 2nd at 1:30 pm at Scion of Lewisville (1547 South Stemmons Fwy, Lewisville, Texas). 

If you are interested in joining and attending this meeting, please contact Anne Jurado (anne_face@yahoo.com).

Arriving this week at Scion of Lewisville, two Release Series 6 tCs.  This Release Series includes all the things that you love the tC for, with some special refinements;

Scion of Lewisville will be up at Sneaky Pete’s, right on Lewisville Lake, on Friday, April 23rd from 5:00 to 9:00 pm.  We are hoping that this will be our first event to show off our new xB showcar, complete with audio system, HD TV, and  PS/3 system.

Anyone interested in discussing a new Scion, this will be the time, is a totally informal setting and for your time we will be handing out $10 gift certification good for food and drink at Sneaky Pete’s.

We hope to see you there!!!!!!!!!!

To get there, just go North from Lewisville on I35E and follow the signs.  If you cross the lake you have gone too far.

The 2011 xB is upgraded with an aggressive new look on the outside and added comfort and convenience on the inside. The enhancements to the 2011 xB come with a $150 price increase over the 2010 model resulting with MSRPs of $16,000 and $16,950 for manual and automatic transmission models, respectively.

The xB enters the 2011 model year with fresh exterior styling including changes to the front and rear bumpers, grill, headlights and taillights, which together reveal a more aggressive demeanor. The new front bumper features enlarged outer vents, improving the appearance of the vehicle’s stance. The front grille features a new honeycomb pattern and improved headlamp design. The single rear backup lamp has been integrated into combination lamps to produce a more refined appearance.

Changes to the 2011 xB’s interior offer significantly more comfort and convenience to all of its occupants. Driver- and front-passenger seats are redesigned to include larger bolsters for greater comfort and stability. Front and rear seats have a new light gray fabric with a geometric pattern for the seating surfaces contrasted by black fabric covering the bolsters, bases and backs. A combination center console with sliding armrest has been added to increase driver comfort and utility. Improved gauge-cluster design with black background, along with a separate clock and outside temperature display, provides better visibility to information. Completing the changes, the steering wheel now includes both telescopic and tilt functions.

In addition to receiving the new 2011 xB, we sould be getting back from the shop our new xB Show Car, complete with its 26″ HD TV, upgraded Kicker audio system, leather seats and Sony Playstation 3.

We, of course, will be there with serveral new Scions and if you stop by our tent and register (and make a small donation of $2) you will be eligible to win a new PS/3.  The drawing will take place around 8:00 pm and all donations will be given to KOHS.

In addition to the above, Justin Marks (ARCA points co-leader) will be there signing autographs and there will also be a raffle for a chance to win a pit crew experience with Justin Marks, Win-Tron Racing and the President of Keep Our Heroes Safe for Friday nights race at Texas Motor Speedway.

With live music and great weather, this should be a great time.  Come out, have some fun, and support a great cause!!!!!!!  Hope to see you there.

About Keep Our Heroes Safe

Keep Our Heroes Safe is a Non-profit Organization that assists Fire, Police and Military Veterans across America. In 2010, KOHS will be taking our cause on the road. With the help of popular underground musicians, KOHS will be touring all across the Country. Our goal is to honor our heroes through concert events while increasing awareness and raising money.

In 2010, we will be launching a national campaign to create awareness of the needs for Fire and Police Departments across the Country. Through ticket and merchandise sales, we are confident that we can assist our Heroes at home and abroad.

With our second year of entertainment across the country, we are growing fast. KOHS has earned a lot of respect form department’s across the Country. We pride ourselves in offering assistance without the red tape that the Government requires.

KOHS will also be creating an Internet Radio show on Live365.com. Songs from our musicians as well as others, that support our cause will be played. The station will also include, stories about our Heroes and the passion they have for Country and what they do.

Through a mixed exposure opportunity of Music, NASCAR, Radio, Television and Print, we are looking to get our message out.

We hope that you will be a part of saying “Thank You”, to those who protect us and our Property, Freedom and Rights, everyday.
