Used 2005 Scion xB 4dr Wagon (1.5L 4cyl 4A) Consumer Reviews
so far OK
I like the looks of the car. mileage is not what they said it would be. I had a Rav4 and it had 171,000 miles on it and I had it for 6 years. It was more fun to drive but the mileage wasn't there. The average is 28 not much difference than the Rav4 and the ride is not nearly as fun. I guess the flip side is I drive slower now and I speeding is not a problem. It doesn't had the turning ability as the Rav4, it doesn't sit as high as the Rav4 did. The wind can be a problem.
A good box at a good price
The xB is an excellent commuter vehicle for anyone who needs to drive a long distance each day. It is well designed, fun to drive, and relatively comfortable. The price point is excellent for toyota quality. Bear in mind that this is a very basic vehicle, and it will not beat anyone off the line. However, it is fun to drive, and comes with some excellent standard features like ABS and keyless entry, to name a few. Everyone has reacted positively to the unique design, once they see it up close, they really like it. I love this car!!, highly recommended for the daily commuter, no matter how old or young you are.

I think that this car is great for a small family on a limited budget. Fun to drive and very spacious interior.
Everything I want
This car is simply the best of everything I could want. It offers an excellent comfort level for the price. It proves you don't have to spend lots of money to get a nice vehicle. Sure there are oddities to get used to, but as a whole, it is a well-rounded fun vehicle.
The car of the future
Since 1996 went from Town Car to Lex LS400 to Prius. This is one terrific little package that sacrifices nothing. We call it the box car. Can't believe that a package this small on the outside can have so many feaures in and out, not the least of which is the look. It turns heads everywhere we go! We miss a speed control, may add one, but overall this is one of the best buys today, any where. I am disappointed so far with gas mileage, but car is new, hope it will improve, but was really spoiled by the Prius. I'm a good American, but there is no way anyone so far can innovate the car market like Toyota. Also own a GMC 3500 Pickup, it's going bye bye, too!
