It's just that I'd been lurking around for a while, but hadn't seen anybody with an "LS" in their signature (which reminds me...). Or maybe I haven't been paying proper attention.

One of the reasons I liked my Scion back five years ago when new, was that there really wasn't much to add to it. I ordered floor mats, wheels (shouldn't have) and a strut tower bar (good juju). So it's pretty much the same for the LS for me. It's got what I need, and then some. And I have decent resale value from the xB. Don't really care if I do when I'm done with the Camaro.

Here's a whacky (to me) example of a Chevy Corvette optioning thing that's just odd: Order the standard coupe. Do you want the glass top? That's $XX extra. But you don't get the painted top...and I'm talking like $700 extra. Want BOTH tops, you greedy pirate? That's something like $1200...ummm, what??? Can't you just order the glass top later? Ohhhh, then it costs $1500...ha ha ha (made up $).

Hey, I know what I'm gettin' here. None of those reindeer games. At least not anything at all until, maybe, oh, I don't know...I may be a year older. Or two...

At least I won't be the only one at McDonald's in Scottsdale on Indian Bend (in case you were wondering where to go in Scottsdale...) by the time it rolls in.
