Aside of being busy at the office this week, as the project I am working on revs up into its implementation phase, I have been devoting a lot of my spare time looking into getting one of
these.
A
friend of mine says that he can always tell how busy someone is by the number of posts on their blog.

This would explain the apparent lack of posts on my site recently.
So, the time has come to change my wheels, I have chosen the 2006 Scion TC because it's the closest match to my VW Jetta 1.8T Wolfsburg in features and driver performance, and Scion's are Toyota built, and so come with a reliability history. I took a test drive in one earlier this week, and managed to have some fun on the open road.
As soon as I find a new home <sniff> for my v-dub <sniff>, I shall be wiping away the cobwebs from the entrance to my gold reserve and heading on over to the Toyota dealer to pick me up a shiny new TC. I plan to get navigation this time, and I am considering the
Pioneer AVIC-D1, which provides complete US GPS navigation, XM satellite radio, XM satellite traffic, and IPOD integration. Once I make my purchase of both car and
expensive toy navigation unit I shall blog about it.
