Are the scion’s reliable for traveling long distance?
I have a 2015 scion TC almost 119,000 miles, just got new brakes, oil change yesterday. planning a trip from NY to Pittsburgh this month I was going to rent a car but they’re expensive. Would it be a risk to use my car or no? Thanks in advance for any feedback
Quick question
Is anyone running these coil overs? Trying to figure out if the come with the front top hats or any mounting wear or not. Looking for something a bit better then the maxspeeding rods I currently have. If anyone knows if the godspeed coilovers are better as well lmk

Struggling to pass smog
Having issues passing smog… first test I failed for broken fuel injector fixed it drove around with no codes went back a week later failed again. I thought it would be the o2 sensors going bad. Changed the o2 sensors drove it for a week to try to reset the system still failed. Any suggestions?
Where to purchase?
I have owned 2 scions in the past (2007, 2013) and I crashed my baby in may of 2023, I have been driving a stupid Corolla since but I want another Scion.
Used car prices are astronomical. I bought my 2013 in 2020 and paid $9k cash.
I’m looking at 2013s for comparison and most of them want $11k plus. I didn’t even think I got that great of a deal back then lol.
Anyway my question is - other than the obvious (carvana etc) where could I look for people selling their cars privately? Any insight is greatly appreciated.

She’s dirt, but she’s clean! Starting to finally come together. Just gotta lower it and get new wheels. White again, Or black wheels??
My partner was begging to put his e-bike in the trunk of my Scion because he didn’t want to have to lift it farther off the ground to get it into his 4 runner and I told him no on the basis of the bike is too large and will scratch the plastic.
Well I wake up this morning and my trunk is empty but now filled with 20+ deep scratches in the plastic like he locked a raccoon in it.
Is it possible at all to heat gun these out? Like what can I even do to fix these
Very upset because I’ve had this car for a bit and I’ve worked very hard to keep it clean and scratch free even though I use it for outdoor gear I’ve kept it perfect.
Rear sway bar upgrades
Hey there I’m want to upgrade my rear sway at but when I look online I don’t see much except the trd one not sure if that’s the only one but I was wondering what you guys are running or know of. thank you!
I got a nice plastic grille for cheap, for my 2012 tc. Any advice on specific dimensions to cut. I looked it up but figured I’d ask if someone did it before. Also, does anyone know like a good rubber to go around it so it fits nice and flush? Similar to how Sciongrillelife does it. Appreciate it!
I already cut it a good bit already. But it’s decently thick plastic. Also, what’s the best way to remove the stock grille?

Are these rims 2015 or 2005?
Seller says rims are from 2015 but google ai says they are 2005 era.
how cooked am i?
I did notice a LOT of oil in the first cylinder spark plug well but i also noticed the gasket is really old and it was super brittle. i’ve replaced the valve cover gasket but im not sure if this is gonna cause me a problem again.
I’m assuming I might have to get another valve cover, or maybe i can invite my friend jb weld
