Still Love my Black Box!

I've had my Scion xB since February 2004 and still love everything about it. The gas milage is great and I haven't had any trouble of any kind at all. I travel a lot and find it comfortable and easy running. I saw a white xB on a Tuesday and bought my black one the very next Saturday. I have lots of room for my grandson and my dog!

I Don't Miss the HEMI!

This "car" is phenominal! I can't believe how much fun it is! I traded in a Hemi Ram due to gas prices and praticality's sake. I originally wanted a Mazda3 Hatchback, but I was too upside down on the Ram to keep my payments reasonable. I always thought the xB was cool in a weird way, but figured it was slow and poorly made. How wrong I was! I haven't had this much fun since my 1990 Mazda Rx-7. What the the xB lacks in horses, it more than makes up for with zippy handling and uniqueness. Even my big truck driving friends, who laughed and threatened to disown me at first, gave it the respect it deserves after they drove it. I'm 6'2, and I can even sit in the BACK seat with plenty of leg room. Buy one!

Lowest Total Cost of Ownership

After doing research (we are talking spreadsheets) on hybrids and other fuel efficient vehicles, I settled on the xB. I am 6'3" and commute at least 80 miles a day, 5 days a week. Additionally, I truck around clients to show real estate and needed good legroom all around. Lastly gas mileage, dependability, and resale value were taken into account. This little box financially makes sense and is fun and comfortable. Doing it again, I would have gotten silver instead of black (had to try black once in my life) and an automatic transmission as I wear dress shoes to work (little pedals and Rockports don't mix), but this is no fault of the car's by any means. This vehicle is so functional it makes you question ALL other vehicles.

Great except for the windshields

I've had this car for almost two years. I loved the unique design and interior room. The interior design looks a little cheap, but better than the TC. I still love the vehicle, except for the fact that I am going onto my third windshield in two years. I just replaced the windshield three months ago and the new windshield is cracked already. There's a whole section on this site about the windshields always cracking. Great car except for the windshields. Be prepared to pay money for replacements.
