Well, I don't know about them... I wold wait untill the car people had some practic with them and work the bugs out and stuff. But Why do the compamies have to make them so ugly. Like the prius, it looks like someone smashed the frount end and an angle and it has like no grill... and the back is scary. And all of the other electric cars the are comming up with why are they so ugly and wierd? What do you think? Is it just to stand out??? Do you like them? I'm kind of unsure about them.

I'm thinking about purchasing the Scion tC. But before I do so, I'd like to get some feedback about it. So what do you think about the Scion tC and do you own one yourself?

I'm looking to get a bike with a salvage title (good way to save some money because most bikes are considered totaled with a little bit of rash on the fairings).
So, where do you buy a salvage bike in Texas? auction, salvage yard, etc.

I got into an accident that was the other drivers fault. He is insured by State Farm and they will be handling it. However, they will not pay for my rental which I have had since the accident two weeks ago. They said that they dont pay for the rental prior to them determining who is liable and this wasn't until recently because the other driver was dodging State Farms calls and not giving them a statement. What can I do to get my rental reimbursed from State Farm??? Dont they have to reimburse the rental since their driver's actions rendered my vehicle non-driveable??
