In NorCal, Scion was the brand for bull dykes with dogs, and millenatard hypster douche nozzles (kinda like Subaru). Badge change was needed.

Status is a funny thing. I have read that status is hardwired but I am suggesting that social influences play a big part too.

I'm guessing it wasn't a sponsorship deal and I have no idea of the thinking to get such a tattoo.

I have three tattoos. Each one is a little dot that the technicians use to align my torso in the machine that gives me my daily cancer radiation therapy. Two weeks down, three more to go.

I also have a wicked 7.5" long scar from the tumor excision surgery.

Make extra dots with a marker to mess with the techs. Play it right and I bet you can get some laughs.

Most of the pictures are gone from way back when, but the Japanese market was actively seeking Scion badge trades for the giggle factor in '12.
