Love It!

I love this vehicle! I had a Jeep before this and loved it for 230,000 miles. I was looking at the Toyota Tacoma when I spotted the xB. I had thought that they were the ugliest thing on the road but when I looked inside I couldn't believe how BIG it was. Then I took it for a test drive and bought it immediately. After three months I still smile when I see it in the driveway (it's sooo cute). The gas mileage isn't quite what they claim but I usually get about 27 mpg, only got 30 once. I love that when two xBs pass each other on the road the owners always wave or give the thumbs up, it's like we are very special vehicle owners.

Love this car. I get 31.5 MPG all city driving. Just had first snow fall and this car handles great. I'm 6'4" and 310 lbs and I fit fine in front or back seat. Best small car it you need to hall big people. I have fit 4 6'+ adults.

I Love This Car!

I've had this car for 4 months now and absolutely love it. I'm 57 years old and have relatives in their 70s that have no problem getting in and out. One of my sons is 6'7" and can sit in the back seat without his knees touching the front seat even when it's completely extended. Nobodys' head touches the ceiling. It's amazing how much stuff I can haul from the building supply stores. In town I'm getting a little over 29 mpg. On my last trip, one tankful that was soley freeway driving got 36.9 mpg. The ride is a little stiff but it corners like a sportscar. I love this car!

This is my first new car in 19 years. Through extensive research I decided on this vehicle. So far every thing about the vehicle is great. I really love the gas milage. After having had a SUV, the extra savings in gas cost will make the car payments!

Box full of fun

Like everyone else before I owned my xB I used to say, "that has got to be the ugliest car on the road." But then when I came into the market to purchase a vehicle the more the xB grew on me. One test drive is all it took! I was amazed at how much room there was on the inside of the car, I'm a DJ so I need space to haul my equipment around. Another thing that impressed me was the low end pick up of the 1.5L. I have a 5-speed manual and have no problem leaving people at stoplights to make quick lane changes when needed. All in all, I'm definitely glad I bought the xB it's definitely a "Box full of fun".
