I've had my XB for a few weeks now after trading in an old Matrix. You can't beat the roomy interior of this small package. It really is a small SUV in my opinion. This years upgraded stereo includes bluetooth which works very well and is easy to set up. Driving around town, up and down hills, intercity or on the Freeway's are pleasant. On my first few tanks of gas I'm getting 22.5. I was hoping for 2012 the six speed transmission would be added to boost fuel economy. I like all the cubby holes the XB has for storage. The factory tinting looks dark yet at night it doesn't have a dark cavern feel. I found the gauges very logical mounted to the right instead of normal centered.

Very reliable, great daily driver, easy entry and exit all four doors. Still a great buy! No failures of any kind. To paraphrase a non-car ad, "You just get in the car and drive it."

I found this gem with only 15000 miles in 2022. Now at 37000 miles it is such a great car for road trips and gardening. Very easy to get in and out for those with disabilities. My late Mom had a 2008 Scion xB she bought after retiring. She became ill with dementia and this car was such a Godsend.

Bought my 2013 xb used 5 years ago and with regular oil/filter changes still runs as good as ever. Then 5 speed manual drives like a sports car and steering is above anything in its class. This car is a can't miss bargain and wish it was never discontinued. I think toyota was mistaken when they stopped making the xb model...puts the soul and cube to shame.
