Love my little 2006 XB

I had a Camry Hybrid, which was great for fuel economy and comfy to ride, but the huge battery ate up all the trunk space and that was a problem getting several guitars and amps to rehearsals and gigs. I wanted something small but with max cargo space, so I gravitated to the XB. I was blown away by the space inside this little car. I recently drove from LA to NYC in 3 days, with 4 guitars, a banjo, a mandolin, a couple duffle bags, my miniature schnauzer and my little sister. We drove through desert, over mountains and through a day and a half of pounding rain, and I love that little XB even more now!

The handling for a small car is wonderful. It is tight, compact, maneuverable in traffic, and its gas mileage is always over 30 mpg. I am used to large luxury vehicles but find this car refreshing and a joy to drive. I continue to appreciate the visibility from all angles. I do resent it being discontinued however.

Bought my xB a year ago with 28K miles on it. Pure stock with automatic. Driving around the Northern VA/DC area averaging 32-33mpg, max mpg was a trip between NVA and Williamsburg - 38mpg. Ride is OK for a small car, handling fantastic. Keep the RPMs around 3K and your mpg will be great (that will give you 70mph on the highway). I call it my mini-truck. Hauls a LOT of stuff. I plan on running until it dies! Maintenance costs are a bit stiff if you follow the book and go to the dealer, but overall a fantastic little car.

My Xb is 12 years old. Undoubtedly the best around town car I have ever owned. Big enough inside to bring home a refrigerator. Comfortable. Bulletproof reliability. I'm a car guy and own Alfas, Porsches, Toyota and Ford Trucks a BMW M2 and an old Jeep.....This is my daily driver. Never fails to put me in a good mood......Not even sure where the gas stations are....too bad they stopped production

My 2006 XB was my first new car purchase and I researched and researched and compared and compared until it was obvious she was the one. The only thing I ever regretted was thinking maybe I should have gotten the blue instead of the thundercloud silver. That's it! This car was perfect and even kept me safe when an 18 year old driver gunned her engine and smashed her head on. This car was so reliable and had such great gas mileage and the cargo space especially, MUAH! With the front seats and back seats down there was nothing I couldn't haul. Amazing. Oh the visibility and height! They should have kept with this design it was near flawless. It it had better interior lighting and wasn't so light on hills and wind this would be the perfect car for all families and types. I'll miss you ThunderCloud but this is LA I'm sure she'll be on the streets in other forms her parts were too perfect to truly die.
