Modern Buddy

Today I went out and bought myself a new helmet and jacket for riding. Its so nice to feel completely safe. I went into a store to try on helmets and I would definatly recommend getting fitted for one by someone who rides and knows how something should fit. I had been wearing small adult helmet and it was never comfortable. COme to find out I actually wear a childs large. I am very petite and needed something shorter. I also bought a cortech armoured jacket. I lurve it. WHile I was out my odometer turned to 666 which meant the rest of the ride I was singing The Number of the Beast by Iron Maiden, anyway here's some pics of the day.

I <3 scion XB's!


My dad has a 05 special edition sunset yellow xB, we bought it used from a cadilac dealer that had it for months, they said the original owner was a 80 year old guy who used it as a toy for only 5k miles. It had a performace muffler, aftermarket stripe kit, rims, and everything.

The new xB is nice, but the old one is still better. Wish they'd bring it back.

Also, nice gear!

Love the Iron Maiden referrence!

I just noticed the square cube, I got a few of those at a car show. Didnt know what it was for a while and finally found out it's a old guy with wind blowing in his face, you hook it to the car antenna. Funny thing though, the xB doesnt have a antenna for the radio.

It's my fiances car. He loves it. I know the Scion owners seem to be almost obsessed with the vehicle

---Hey, my first post wasn't even me. Use your own computer. We're not obsessed. We just really, really like them.

Haha sorry....I accidentally on purpose used my fiances computer, he is a new member at Modern Buddy...ooops

Helmet hair...

All this Iron Maiden is a wonderful thing.

Well I like your twist on the Man in Blacks song. "I once shot a man just to watch him die. Then I got distracted and missed it. "

the picture from inside the car is a trip.

some people look at it and see scions weird gauge placement.

i look at it and see OMG RHD JDM!
