I'm a techie too, but don't use Twitter. Something about "following" someone just doesn't sit right with me. I see nothing but celebrities on Twitter, and it sorta turns me off.

lol I feel like social websites like that should have like 1 or 2 syllables. Not 3, makes it feel longer to say

ANYWAYS

It's far easier to track updates with g+ pages, because so few people use it! I follow the Scion FR-S page on both fb and g+.

I know HIDS should be standard on all cars..especially those that cost over $22k.

They are not that expensive for the manufacturers to add...but the biXenon ones with the autoleveling are more expensive.

You can get decent aftermarket conversion kits for less than $100 including the bulbs and ballast.

But this is basic HID stuff...not the awesome OEM stuff which is what I would want. But hey even the $100 PnP stuff is better than the stock halogens.
