Hah, really? I thought people ate their cars up.

I never met a Scion owner who wasn't happy.

And they wouldn't have been bought by Toyota if it wasn't a good investment.

I thought they were a sub brand that Toyota created, not an acquisition. My xB is actually a Toyota Echo with a different outer body and interior trim.

You are right, I thought it was it's own thing but no it was always part of Toyota.
