Default Introduction

Hi everyone,

I just want to introduce myself. My name is Rhett and I live in Louisville KY. I'm 37, happily married with two kids and work as an RN at a dialysis clinic. I own a 2002 GS300 and 2004 GS430. I've had the 300 for almost a year and the 430 for a week. I bought my GS300 when my modded 2005 Scion xb got totaled by a drunk driver last summer. I love the car but my son is turning 16 so I'm passing it down to him and just bought a GS430 to replace it.

I'm not sure how much help I'll be around here but have loved reading everyone's posts on here and checking out their pix over the past few months.

Thanks for having me!

Welcome! I was just up in Louisville 2 weeks ago at the Mid America Show. Man that town is pretty in spring, particularly the Highlands area.
04' GS430 is pretty rare car. 1 of 1537 I believe. any pics/specs on yours?
Any immediate plans for maintenance or mods?

Thanks for the compliments on my town! I'm not from here but have lived here longer than anywhere else so it is home to me and I love it here. I'm actually not to far away from the Highlands. Just drive down Bardstown south for about five minutes and you're in my neighborhood.

I don't have any pix of my new ride but will get some soon along with my old one that my son has now. I'm going to be trying to put in an Aux input so I can hook my phone up but that's about it for now. I may have thrown dozens of LED's all over my Scion to make it glow green but I'm going to be much more reserved and stock with my Lexus. I was actually working on it tonight when I thought I blew my amp up but after searching around on here, I was able to figure out I just blew a fuse.

Also, holy crap, 1 of only 1537?!?!?! I thought my old Scion RS2.0 was rare at 2500! Any breakdown on the numbers of GS430's by color and/or options? I've got a dark blue one with navigation and the Levinson sound system.
