Scion xB demand will be regional

Written by: deranged on May 08, 2004 02:20 PM

Per varmint's earlier note regarding regional demand. The demand for the Scion xB should be as well. My wife and I were having a little bit of a battle regarding what the next family vehicle should be. I was pushing for looking seriously at the xb for two reasons, cost and mileage. (The new vehicle will be my daily driver, and I currently have a '90 Range Rover.) I like ... Read More...

Test Drove an Element today - Yukky ride

Written by: footie on Jan 29, 2004 02:40 PM

I had hoped for a high touch but it only looked that way. The seat back adjuster was loosely attached in one Element I sat in while fine in the one I test drove. The sound system ... Read More...
